Game 42: Atlanta VS LA Clippers

[cyman3]

Thornton is killing us!

rest of the hawks look uninterested

[Murat]

Look at the bright side guys, we are only down 13 after 3. Last night it was 33.

Where is Mario?, Wtf is Woody doing?

[WraithSentinel]

Tell that guy in your sig it would be nice if he would finally start playing well.

down 20 in the fourth, it's pretty much over!

[TheNorthCydeRises]

WOW . . the Al Thorton show !!!

Then Mobley with the nice hesitation and the dunk.

Down 20 just that quick . . wow !!!

[killa3312]

Johnson is pathetic. Thornton is shooting .418 percent for the season and averaging under nine points a game and he's going off like he's the next Dominique on the Hawks. What terrible defense.

whats the excuse for Joe tonight?

[TheNorthCydeRises]

No excuse tonight. Thorton is just ballin. Gifted offensive players can explode like that.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Then again, everything is Woody's fault, so I blame Woody for Thorton going off.

[bumpyphish1]

Wow. Terrible performance tonight. Showing some life but....meh.

The only thing good I will take out of it is that maybe they will finally fire Woody. No, I know I am dreaming.

I am glad Acie got to play this one out - why cant he get a shot to fall??!

[Atlantaholic]

I'm sorry Northcyde. But you are delusional. We have a team talented enough to be a top four team in the East... When a team plays the way we have the last month it is OBVIOUS to everybody with any slight of objectivity that they have given up on the coach... Look at the body language of half of our freaking players. Loosing the team the way Woody has is the Cardinal sin of coaching... All those retarded plays of off time outs, the substitution patterns that puts the hot player on the bench, the lack of adjustments, the lack of getting bench players comfortable in their roles... all that pales in comparison to when your team plays the way it does night in night out the way our Hawks our playing for Woodson.

[oiatlhawksfan]

WOW! Chance to cut it to 3!

[DavidSomerset]

Man it sucks we are still going to lose, but what a ridiculous comeback.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

DAMN ACIE . . .I wish he would've taken that 3 instead of going inside.

Sam is about to ice it . . .lead is 5

[oiatlhawksfan]

Make a three, quck foul...

DON"T GIVE THE BALL TO JOE!!!!!!!!

[oiatlhawksfan]

Clippers Commentator have it right

"Joe looks awful out there, looks disinterested, taking bad shots, turning the ball over."

Yep thats our all star!

[Admin]

Joe is definitely hurting, he can't even get his shot off from outside anymore and that's one of his signature shots. I really wish Joe would sit for a week or two and rest but I know that's not going to happen unfortunately.

Well it was a fun comeback for a minute and then we stunk up the last 45 seconds. At least we didn't quit tonight.

Top 4 in the East? Now that's delusional.

We all know that Woody is the anti-christ and the #1 problem with the Hawks.

Just Skiles was the problem in Chi-town.

And Brown was the problem in NYC

And Fratello was the problem in Memphis

Bickerstaff in Charlotte

Stotts in Milwaukee

Woody will take the fall, no doubt, just like alll of those other coaches.

Damn . . . Acie should've taken that 3 with 20 seconds left. Tie game if he hits that. That proves right there that he's playing not to mess up.

Oh well . . mission DEFINITELY not accomplished.

No defense tonight, until the very end.

[Atlantaholic]

If he is hurt than why is he playing 40 + minutes every game???

Either Joe is screwing us by playing half-assed or Woody is KILLING us by over playing Joe. One way or the other, there needs to be a serious damn decision made, because we are to invested on Joe Johnson to have him play like this for us.
