The Good Guys

The Bad Guys

The Atlanta Hawks (16-17) enter Tuesday's game fresh off a 104-85 win over Chicago. It was the 1st time the Hawks had defeated the Bulls in a dozen chances. The Hawks enter this game as the 8 seed in the East.

Denver will visit Charlotte and Atlanta on a 2 game road swing and is 7-8 away from home this season. The Nuggets have won four of their last five games overall, including Friday's 113-103 victory over the Orlando Magic at the Pepsi Center.

It's time to raise the roof at Phillips tonight!

As the Hawks welcome Allen Iverson and the No Look Dribble

Not sure if it's the skills or the Prison Tats, but he's got TJ Ford terrfied!

On that note kids sure are cute....

They say a Picture is worth a Thousand Words

So that makes this one worth how much?

Enjoy the game everyone and as always....

Viva la Hawks!

How this one will play out?

I think Denver is the type of team Atlanta thrives against.

In other words they don't play defense.

I'm glad someone else has seen the Josh Smith/Game resimblence (SP). Me and my boys have been calling him "the Game" for a minute. You good with your layouts too. Nice look.

And I also think this will be a competitve game. We seem to play them well because of their running style and other than Camby, they have no real length. I think Marvin or J. Smith has to have a good defensive game against Melo and make him work the same way LeBron had to work last game at Philips and Joe have a good shooting night.

[macdaddy]

top notch. One of my favorites!

Nice thread as usual. With the absence of Melo in the thread, I'm assuming he'll be the feature of the game thread the next time we play Denver.

As far as the game goes, I'm glad Charlotte really pushed them lst night and knocked them off. The thing with the Nuggets, is that you have to make AI a scorer, and not a playmaker. And you have to do the opposite with Melo if possible. We can't let him go off. He and Melo have great chemistry together and AI will try to get him going first. Then when teams start to rotate over to Melo, AI will look to attack.

This is the type of game we need a guy like AJ to make some shots from the outside to keep AI from roming the court on defense. He'll get some open looks tonight, so he needs to hit his first few jumpers to keep them honest.

Intrresting battle between Camby and Horford. The game might ultimately be decided by who can get the most rebounds between the two.

NBA player leaving Denver.... coming to Atlanta.

Watch out!

I predict the Nuggets will be a little sluggish tonight.

Does anyone know how the Nuggets fare in transition defense? The Bulls announcers singled that out as their weakness before last game. Boy were they right!

[gsuteke]

Let's hope the Nuggets were playing this in their IPOD all week

I steal those from a guy on the Mavs RealGM board.

So to answer your question I don't know. He has a young puppy face?

[Dnice]

Oh ok.

[TheDude]

my only concern is the quickness of Iverson....Law will need to get some burn tonight.
