Is BIG DOG the problem? do u guys regret the trade

[cyman3]

last year, the hawks were less talented but had much much more chemistry. After the allstar break, we were playing GREAT with so much energy.

now the hawks plain out suck... time to point fingers, dont blame JT or SAR... its BIG DOG's FAULT!

In My Opinion, we arent focusing our offense on SAR... we redirected the offense to GLENN ROBINSON. That isint right!

5-18 shooting is HORRIBLE! To be honest with you, im not sure if we got the best out of the MIL/ATL deal... i think Kukoc is a better fit for our offense than Big Dog!

anybody agree? does anybody else feel a sense of regret towards the trade?

Big Dog's defense is terrible and Shareef is at fault

also.There was one play on the fast break were Shareef

could have easily stop Marion if he would have steped

in front of him but he just stood there and Marion banked

it off the glass with no defensive pressure.

sure hes not playing with the same energy but hes doing a lot more for us than Glenn Robinson.

Hes the ONLY inside presence we have (we got a decent Henderson on the bench), and hes valuable to our team. He was the most consistant player last year but this year hasnt been his best year.

i think he'll come around....

I don't think JT or Shareef are playing as good

as they were last year.Shareef had a pretty

good second half and so did JT but so far I

have not been impressed with either.

I'm starting to agree about Big Hog.I feels like

he has taken away from the effectiveness of

Shareef and JT.Both played MUCH BETTER last

year....The stats don't show much difference...but

when you watch games it is easy to see.

Yes we are missing DJ.I think his injury did sort of

take the air out of the team somewhat.
