vdunkndunk Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 All I can say is that I'm extremely impressed with him. On the first night he showed he could get to the basket and dish, and tonight he's shown he can hit jump shots and defend. I love what he's done shooting the ball tonight (3rd quarter) and his defense on Prince and Billups has been amazing. Great pick! I'm fully on the bandwagon and feel stupid for criticizing this guy! Let's go Hawks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MLibid Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 he's turning the ball over a little too much in the fourth quarter now. and he's had a few open looks, but decided to pass it. not saying that it's bad or anything... idk, just my opinion.

I wish Woody would go to him in the 4th quarter instead of Pee Lue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJFAN4LF Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 He played great tonight. One of the few players I can say that too. Needs to get better shoes, seems like he was slipping out there and causing turnovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocJones Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 He's young and it will take him some time to fully adjust to the pro game, but I really think he's going to be a solid player in Atlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumpyphish1 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Acie is a winner and a fearless competitor. Once he gets passed the deer in headlights phase, he will be great for us. Already the best PG on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrReality Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Very impressive. He delivered one pass, I think it was to Smoove who missed it, but the pass was great. He has the presence on the floor that a pg has to have. I'm sure he learned a thing or two tonight playing Billups. There will be other nights for him.

Look at the trash he had to work with when Woodson gutted the starting lineup at the start of the 4th Man we need to win on Tuesday so I can get over this gaem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exodus Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Quote: Once he gets passed the deer in headlights phase, He definitely had that look a few times. However i am not worried about it. The encouraging thing to might tonight wasn't just his scoring. He looked good defensively. A few times he got switced onto much bigger players and still held his own. It will be nice to have a pg who can actually play both ends of the court. and once teams realize how much of a scorer he is it will be easier for him to set other guys up.

That was Jason Kiddesque but Childress missed it. I think its a mental issue with Childress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stat line looks bad 0 asst and 5 TO but he played much better than that. The important number is +11 when he was in and -12 when he was out. He missed out on some assists because the players counldn't convert easy chances. Folks we got our PG for a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prolific25 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Law has a very quick 1st step. I still don't understand why the scouting reports questioned his athleticism...no one on the Pistons could stay in front of him. His size also won't allow him to be man handled by bigger pg's like Chauncey(like Lue lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
