2ND QUARTER

10:48 - Gomes scores lay-up over Marvin

10:03 - Misses a 20 foot jumper

7:41 - Lazy possession for Marvin here. Gomes grabs a rebound that Marvin would get if he jumped for the rebound. Then he watches Poe grab the loose ball and dunk it after Smith blocks Green's Lay-up. Poor effort by Marvin here. ((( I'll have to give him a -2 for this )))

7:32 - Good interior pass to JJ, who was fouled before the shot

3RD QUARTER

11:24 - Loses track of the shot clock and lets it run out.

9:52 - Good defense on Gomes, but he still hits the 15 footer.

9:36 - Misses open 3-pointer from the corner. (( If he settles for one more jumper and misses, I'll have to give him negative points ))

9:29 - Defensive rebound

8:39 - Loses sight of Green, who knocks down a 3. He got lost in about 2 screens.

7:02 - Good crosscourt pass to Chill, who knocks down a three. Key basket in the Hawks comeback that cut the lead to 12.

4TH QUARTER

10:00 - Called for 3 seconds. He was in the lane before he received the pass, then pump faked too many times when he did get the ball.

8:50 - Hits 16 foot jumper to tie the game at 62

8:22 - Defensive rebound

7:43 - Defensive rebound

6:50 - marvin out of the game . . Score: 66 - 64 Atlanta . . +/- on the floor: +8

2:24 - Marvin back in game . . Score: 74 - 68 Atlanta . . +/- out of game: +4

1:38 - Foul on Marvin . . Didn't give up easy lay-up.

********* Final score: 82 - 76 Atlanta ********** +/- on the floor: even

OVERALL GRADE: C- . . Not a spectacular game from young Marvin that night. He didn't impact the game much, but he played major minutes. Way too many negatives to point to in this outing.

As far as the team goes, Smoove didn't let this team roll over and die. And once he proved the initial spark, JJ put us right back in contention. Childress also played a good game and ZaZa got to the line during those times in which we couldn't make a shot in the 4th quarter. Horrible start, but great finish. I'll take that.

Positive plays: 4

Negative plays: 7

+/- in the game: +1

+/- out of game: +5

((( NOTE . . . I can't see the Orlando game because it is on FSN South . . . Next Marvin update will be from the 76ers game )))
