That's why no playoffs....

This game tonight...if the Hawks were really a contender for the 7th or 8th seed they would win games like tonight. The got out-played and out-coached by and short-handed Bobcat squad tonight. YOU SIMPLY HAVE to win games like that one. Not just win the game put get on them early let them know they have no chance and take the fire out of them...ESPECIALLY AT HOME!!! The let the damn Bobcats come in there and control the game...that's one to just make you shake your head...I hope we can learn from this especially Woody...Still think the Hawks need a new more veteran coach to push them to the next level...They'll def. eclipse last seasons win total but, they're not playoff contenders just yet!

Every team has bad losses. It's still early.

It seem each time we start to get excited about this team and how good they can be. We get hit with another reality check such as tonight. Basically saying not so fast.

agreed -- this shouldnt be any judge of our possible playoff contention -- like he said....

every team loses sometimes -- look at the Pacers......they lost to us, not much of a reality check when they are EXPECTED to contend now is it?

we'll be alright

reality check is an appropriate way to phrase what i felt last night in the 4th quarter.
