  1. Kenyon Martin is an educated millionaire, who has traveled the world, come back from career threatening injuries, to become a leader on his team and in the community. mad.gif

    While you are probably some mid level manager, punk kid or college student. Where the hell do you get off critisizing someone you dont know by calling them a thug. Try to get to his front door, see who security thinks is the thug. tongue.gif

  2. The Days of Pete Babcock and the drafting of Scrubs is over. Bogut isnt terribly talented, he plays in a scrub conference. Jon Konkak could come out of retirement and put up those types of numbers against CSU and Montana State, etc.

    Chris Paul or Jarrett Jack are good choices. Bogut is just another Jason Collier, Pussyballer wannabe.

  3. I reiterate what I walways Say about you Diesel if you avoided your trade past. You would have the greatest record of post. Damn You called him out on this one

    Very few point guards(Devin Harris) make any impact before there 3rd or 4th year

    I take it you're talking about good PGs since you mentioned good Big men...

    Well, let's look at the record: Centers vs. PGs...

    2004:

    Okafor, Araujo, Swift vs. Gordon, Livingston, Harris

    2003:

    Darko, Bosh, Kaman vs. Hinrich, Ford

    2002:

    Ming, Nene, Wilcox, Ely vs. Jay Williams

    2001:

    Curry, Diop, vs. No PGs..

    2000:

    Chris Mihm, Pryz vs. Dooling

    1999:

    Redojevick vs. Francis, Davis, Miller, Terry.

    1998:

    Olowakhandi, Lafrentz, Doleac vs. Bibby, Jason Williams,

    Now... with the thorough understanding of draft history... back to 1998... we see clearly that the trend is that more PGs are higher impact than Cs... BUT obviously it's case by case... Still, the two that we will never know about are Jay Williams and TJ Ford... Although Ford was making an impact until he got hurt.

    The moral of the story is finding these positions are hard so you don't want to pass up the next Jason Kidd by drafting Big Country...

  4. There are linebackers and linemen in the NFL who can't get 400.

    grin.gifgrin.gifgrin.gifLMBAO!!!!!!!!!! You never played Football before have you. There are College runningbacks getting up well over 400.

    A Div I college Lineman should bench no less than 500 after his first season.

    Anyway Chillz might get 350 to 400 but over 400, with his frme I doubt. But hey I dont know him so I cant say.

  5. No Offense to any particular poste. I know how sensitive and politically correct this board has become. But I feel it must be said. Fan sites and even to some extent GMs are ridiculous for 1 reason. Depending on who was the championship or who had a breakout year, everyone jumps on the bandwagon.

    The Year the Spurs won the championship everyone on the old AA board wanted to find two centers, and that was the gauranteed way to winconfused.gif

    Then a couple of High Schoolers like Kobe and KG became top players in the NBA. So The new tread became draft any high school kid regarles of whether he actually had any talent or not confused.gif

    Then when Shaq showed up everybody yammered on about finding one dominant center. And a side kick for the center confused.gif

    Then a couple of pansy- @ssed Euro players had breakout seasons and everybody wanted a sissyballing fairy to lead them to the pass and jumpshot heaven. confused.gifmad.gifconfused.gif

    Fast forward to now. The new trend on every board is lets build a new Phoenix. " We dont need a real center just a 4 hybrid players and a PG" mad.gif

    No!!!!!!! Hawksquawk used to be full of some band wagon rifing MFs but since Diesel, Hotlanta, Walter, Dolfan and I stopped fighting over the future oif the team. THe Bandwagon riders have taken over. Now all the post are about one. MF agreeing with other MF's about riding some new band wagon. One day I love Billy Knight the next I hate Billy Knight. Have a CREDIBLE opinion on something other than hey, lets imatate this or imitate that

    MAN UP AND KNUCK mad.gifmad.gifmad.gifmad.gif

  6. LOL! I remember I was soooo happy when I first started postin I has 20 some odd years of penned up Hawks talk. I was so happy to find out I wasnt the only fan.

    I remember we had some good ones back in the Day Walter and Diesel. Me and Dolfan. Me and Hotlanta . Me and Walter. Hotlanta and everybody on the board. confused.gif It would be nice to have a few fights break out every now and then just to get the passion back, because I am scared it might last.

    But your right people have fewer negative things to say about the Hawks. And teams stopped the Draft any half assed Euro player grin.gif so I dont really have much to be pissed about, esp. with Babcock gone. grin.gif

    Oh well maybe I can find someone to come in and call me a racist like back in the day. Then we can get it started again. grin.gif

  7. I agree employee 8 must be Toine's f*cking publicist, because he attacked me the other night because I said something about thoine. He asked if it was a personal attack on him. Two words "da F*ck" mad.gif but with that said in general this board has gotten way to huggy feely, tongue.gif all of you ride each others bandwagons, on month, we all love Billy Knight, next month, we hate Billy Knight, one week J.Smooth is the future, next month it will be J.Smooth is a flop lets trade him. confused.gif Sometimes I get sick reading some of the dribble on this site, Everyone has a new bandwagon they are riding depending on the results from any particular game.

    Hawksquawk needs a fight or two to liven things up around here. Man up and develop a unique philosphy on where you think the franchise should go. mad.gif

  8. I think it depends on the board. I do the same thing on BlackVoices.com and it wouldnt raise an eyebrow. But this site is multi-cultural so chillz acts like it the U.N.an deletes anything offensive. LOL!

    I actually lost interest in posting at one point because this site doesnt really like for a good fight to break out every now and then. I lurk from time to time and I havent seen a good argument or even something resembling a fight. I think it would be good for the site just because reading nowadays all you guys do is agree about damn near everything.

    I wish someone would deviate from the general consensus you all have about everything. Hotlanta and I used to argue every other thread because neither of us were jumping on anybody's bandwagon. But now that that is gone you guys have gotten way to PC for me.
