I grew up in Atlanta...have been and will always be a fan of any and every Atlanta team FOREVER...No matter how good or bad they become...All, I was saying is that too many posters were down on this ROOKIE way to early. Some rookies develop more or earlier then others...doesn't make them better...We can't change the culture of his franchise with so much negativity around it...If we, "True Hawk Fans" don't have the vision to be positive then who will? I read post after post after post about how this kid was a bust and how deng and so many others were so much better...now all of a sudden...everyone is saying how great he is???...I don't know about you guys but, this is the most excited i've been about watching the hawk players in a long, long time...won't miss a game if I can help it. I saw the upside in childress and yes, of course, there were some neagtives and lapses and all those thing that go along with being a rook...but, the kid can do it all...and it's just a matter of time...we have to stay positive and those positive thoughts will spread...

Most Everyone in here needs to just shut-up....you guys are supposed to be what i am....a True Hawk Fan!!!!...you guys have been dissing J-Chill from the beginning. Instead of giving the young man a little time to find his way. Not to mention givning BK a little credit for finding talent and better yet, knowing talent when he sees it. It's clear to me, as it would be to any real basketball man, Chill has a much much greater upside then does to Deng. And well can see what Smooth is going to bring in time. Ivey has already shown himself more the capable at this level. Donta got guranteed money for a reason. This is a team on the rise and by the all-star break we'll be as good as most teams in the east. Just may have dug ourselves a hole to deep to climb out of in time to make the playoffs....Don't jump on Chill's bandwagon now...just be a TruHawkFan!!!!
