Game Thread: Washington Wizards @ Atlanta Hawks

Guys, you can't blame Woodson for the fact the Hawks are missing wide-open looks.

Oh no. Smith hits a three.

[Nicholasp27]

that link doesn't work for me

just sits at buffering-0%

[Dakin]

we look worse than last year.

[oiatlhawksfan]

keep refreshing I guess...

[oiatlhawksfan]

let keep it real...this is a lottery team! Attleast that's what they look like right now!

[Dakin]

pitiful - settling for long jumpers and playing zero defense.

[Dakin]

haha nice way to end the half. Can't get any worse than this.

[oiatlhawksfan]

How many fouls have the Hawks commited in the last 6 minutes!

[CrawDaddy]

You can't blame Woody for missed oen shots, but you can blame him for this lack of fire. We are playing like we are 5-0. A loss here and we are headed back down the usual path of a pitiful season.

[Duff_Man]

Keep getting close and letting the Wiz open it back up. Not cool.

[oiatlhawksfan]

I expect them to come out, WAY better in the 2nd half!

[mrhonline]

You can't blame Woodson for a "lack of fire." These are professionals on the court.

At some point, some of you are just going to have to admit the Hawks just play like crap some games.

[Dexmethylphenidate]

Salim + T Lue = 1/7 FG and 0/3 3pt. Where is AJ?

Between Salim and T-lue, Salim is just a lesser of the two evils.

[oiatlhawksfan]

salim just kept chucking it up there!

[Gambit99]

It seems like they came into this game thinking it will be a walk...

I expect they are getting a cursing right now

[AllHeart]

Why didn't we go for a 2 for 1 with 35 seconds left?! We held the ball at the top of the key for 10 seconds, drive in and then turn the ball over.

You must go for a quick score in these situations.

Really? I can't blame the head coach for not having his team playing hard? So why do we pay him to coach? It's definitely not X's and O's.

If a "professional" isn't playing hard, sit his ass on the bench. If your team isn't pushing the ball like the HC has allegedly called for, sit their ass on the bench.

Give me a break dude.

At least Smith played more under control. He took only 5 shots and has only 1 turnover.

Horford sure made Haywood look good.

[exodus]

Not bad. Now he needs to start scoring. He still looks scared to shoot.

[Lawstudent101]

Smoove played well.

The Horford v. Haywood matchup was terrible for us. And Woody sat there and allowed it to happen.

Why not sub in Shellhead? Why just allow the damage to continue?

It really hurt us. And that, yes I can blame woody for.
