Packfill Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Obviously there are still 31 games to play after tonight, but does this game fall into the "must-win" category for the Hawks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHayley Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Yes it is a must-win. We have one day till the trading deadline, players who shouldn't be on our team (Marvin + Salim), and this trip gets NASTY after this game. Golden State is 11 games over .500......?!?!

Packfill Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 I think this is an important game for Hawks just because they are playing a beatable team that just traded away its long-time starting point guard and now, much like the Hawks, is integrating new players. Both teams played last night so both are coming in on an equal playing field. Plus, both teams should be extra motivated to show that the trade benefitted their respective teams more. One advantage for the Hawks is that they actually have a legitimate chance to make the playoffs whereas Sacto is playing out the string. Gotta love the leastern conference!

JackB1 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Bet Smitty can't wait for Lue to hit a shot so he can say "THE CLOSER"!!!! There will be no excuse if we play poorly tonite. I we come out and don't score at least 45 points by halftime, we have big problems. Woodson has to have a counter-plan when teams come out and pressure us and play physical against us. It looked like LA had the "intel" to beat us and other teams will do the same thing if we don't adjust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packfill Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Well, I thought this was an important statement game for the Hawks. Too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 It was more like a statement that would be made at a funeral. An epitat. Any shot at the playoffs will take a miracle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
