  1. Quote: Quote: Last year we rode Joe so bad that by seasons end he was Practically useless. Huh? Last season Joe got hurt and didn't play for the last month due to his calf injury. Quote: This year Joe Chilled a few weeks so that he could finish the season strong. That is ridiculous. nobody tries to brick jumpers which is what JJ did a lot the first half of the season. You give your all every time out. Personally i believe JJ wasn't 100% to start the season but we will never know. Exodus, I am not the type to get into these heated arguments however I do question the ability of a lot of squawkers to read and think at the same time. I am not sure how you could quote me and still not understand what was said. I will explain what I mean. The last time I checked if a player has a calf injury he would be practically useless. I am not sure what basketball experience you have but if you don't try your best it would be pretty easy to brick jumpers. You don't have to try to brick jumpers but if you are not trying your best you will brick jumpers. I too question Joe's health issues but like you said we will ever know. You did read in the subject that this was a theory right? Quote: I'm pretty sure that he mentioned his calf was still bothering him and then he started playing a little better and had that thigh injury and really has just recently gotten back to what appears to be 100%. It really bothers me that some people thought he was dogging it out there since that really doesn't seem to be the type of guy that he is but it's great to see him playing out of his mind again like he has been the past few weeks. ahhh here we go again. If my calf was still bothering me I would chill for a few weeks until it was better so that I could finish the year strong. I am not saying he was dogging it out. Just taking it easy for the benefit of the team so that he will not have an injury at the end of the season. I love coming to Hawksquawk because of the debates. I do believe however if we could learn to read and think at the same time that we could have better conversations and we will probably figure out that most of the time that we are arguing, we actually are agreeing in a different way. But I guess our threads would not be as long then. I still love you guys come nights end though. Ok I am ready for the rebuttal's. Not to say I will respond but I welcome the usual.
  2. Last year we rode Joe so bad that by seasons end he was Practically useless. My theory is this. This year Joe Chilled a few weeks so that he could finish the season strong. I bring this theory to the for front to make this point or ask this question. If we continue to use a small rotation and have several players with DNP's or a combine game play time of 3 min; how well are we to expect our key players to preform come season end or dare I say post season. In succession this brings out another question, have we already conceded to the Boston Celtics baring we end our drought and make it to the play offs. ? If we have not conceded then are we saving our energy for the playoffs. If you are saving our energy then back to square one. Why are some of our players riding the bench?
  3. Probably. I was pretty close and I am not a small guy so I probably stood out.
  4. I wish I would have read this before I went to the game. I sat in sec 120 row JJ and yes I had my Horford Jersey also. As a matter of fact I got it signed tonight.

    HD

    I completely agree. Especially the surround sound.
  6. I thought they counted the foul shots and Miami has the ball.
  7. I used to think this was bad decision making on JS's part however I do know that in little league you are taught to give the ball to the best ball handler by high school this is instinct. With that said by now JS would instinctively look for the best ball handler unless he is being told otherwise. Now if he is going against both his instinct and his coach I would have to believe that some type of ramification or disciplinary action would have to have been applied by now. Since neither of the two have happened one is only to assume that instructions have given to continue doing the very thing that everyone on this board hates to see.
  8. First I must say that I am usually a traditional kind of guy however I am still getting used to the new colors and since my room is painted in the old colors this helps a lot. But I do have one question or suggestion depending on weather or not the feature is already available. If there is a thread that you do not care to see anymore. Can you collapse it so you can scroll past it faster. I know on the old board you can collapse all of them but I am not sure you can collapse just one or two individually. Not an issue just something I feel would be nice to have.
  9. Talent wise yes JC starts. Strategy wise he is my sixth man all day. Do you really want Marvin coming in with your second unit. I don't think Marvin would be able to maintain status quo much less come in the game changing the pace. I like JC right where he is. He does a wonderful job as sixth man.
  10. So the only difference is The size and the injury. But it was the same foul?
  11. Between James Jones foul and Horfords foul?
  12. Ok one more try. Me and my gul at the game. Yes that is a Salim Stoudamire jersey.
  13. Here is a picture from one of the draft parties.

    FSNHD

    I have watched several games in HD on comcast. It used to be 876 for MOJO but they changed it a few games back. It is now 848 and yes the first game when i turned to it, it froze on me. I think that only home games are in HD and not all of them at that. I have not seen an away game in HD. On Hawks.com's schedule they have all of the HD games listed but they don't show the channel.
  15. Yes the Spirit squad is out there but they are missing something from years past...they are missing the FREE STUFF. I mean where are the t-shirts, the free tickets from the floating blimp, the thunder sticks, posters etc. Have you noticed the lack of promotions for games lately. No bobble-heads no cups. Nothing to cheer for. My sons were at the game going horse screaming and booing and what did they get a bull horn with out a hawks symbol or word anywhere. I have been to about 6 games this year and have only seen them shoot t-shirts once. I have a room full of free stuff from games of past but this year all I have is a car flag a towel and a new Dominique bobble head that came with a $50 purchase. We need more free stuff and that always gets the crowd going.
  16. In a game when Shaq causing foul troubles for all of our bigs. Why can't we get solo some pt. If for no other reason but to suck up some of the fouls. Am I missing something is Solo that bad?
  17. anyone have a way to watch the game on line?

    Law status

    Ok I replied before he sent the link.

    Law status

    Does anyone know the status of law. How long is he out?
  20. Hey lawstudent I have a question. I don't believe in banning but I want to understand what you are about. Staying within your mindset. I am sure there are members of this site who's economic status far shadows someone who's prize possessions is a 350z. Would you be humbled and accepting of their suggesting that you were poor because you are not able/willing to spare funds on a material possession that they may have? I would just like to know how you would handle that. Or do you believe that your bank account is infinite and no one has more money than you. Not even any of your NBA idles? Also if your cheese is stacked that tall what would you need with a career? Why wast time going to school. And why in the heck would you buy a 350Z when there are so many better cars available in many different economic classes?
  21. I was there. I have noticed that a weekday crowd is never as good as a weekend crowd. I have been to both home games and By far the Dallas game was louder. Atlanta is still a pretty crowd it takes a lot to get them started. I did love that crowd at the dallas game. I will be at the games next Wed and Sun I will test this theary again.
  22. and since I have to watch on TV does anyone know if we are able to watch the Hawks in HD? If you have League pass is it in HD?
  23. So to put a bottom line on things. Is it safe to say that if Nique needed support from the Squawk to become Coach of the Hawks if the need arises, he would be hard press to find it here?
