Gutless Marvin

[Sasquatch]

Big body wit no heart in it.

I know yall hate to hear it but it is true.

I am watching this guy on offense. There are a number of times when he is open and in position to get a pass. This clown will literally move closer to a defender or move somewhere on the court to diminish any possible passing angle.

He has all the talent but he needs to play like a man.

That is just ridiculous. Marvin came out playing extremely aggressive on D tonight and is trying to knock down his jumper and for you to call him gutless is just stupid. You have no idea what type of game on offense he has been instructed to play.

[Sasquatch]

He is definitely playing awesome D. But he is hiding on offense. That is gutless. Go cry in your pillow if you need to.

[Admin]

What a gutless drive to the basket by Marvin. So gutless of him to hide by driving right at the teeth of the Celtics D.

[Admin]

and another. Will someone take this gutless player out of the game please.

[Admin]

and then a gutless steal and a gutless jumpshot.

[D.R.P.]

THIS POST IS USELESS!

[KB21]

Yep. That gutless Marvin has 8 points on 2 of 4 shooting from the field, 4 of 4 from the line, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 steal at this point.

[exodus]

in the first half but you want to criticize marvin? WTF

[DChawk]

I like the way Marvin started off getting to the line. hit 4 straight free throws and then of course his 1st jumper - which he's been missing consistently since the break - is a swish. he needs to work that strategy more often.

This is the kind of post that gets a lot of Hawks fans so frustrated that they end up over-compensating in their defense of Marvin. It's such a ridiculous and extreme claim.

Marvin's done plenty to deserve criticism lately, you shouldnt have to spew bullshit to make your point. Just stick to his factual shortcomings. If you do so, the pro-Marvin and anti-Marvin debate might actually have some value around here instead of resorting to lies and spin.

Good job getting Childress motivated. 3 straight possessions he comes down and plays Childress basketball. We really needed it too.

Anybody else out there rooting for both Marvin AND Childress?

[Admin]

Not me. I am rooting against both of them.

Where did you run and hide?

I'm rooting against Pierce. Does that count?

You know you are sitting at home cheering for "The Death Spasm" too!

I've seen several spasms from the free throw line, but they're not as special.

BTW, Woodson has done a good job of limiting the starter's minutes tonight. He should get some credit around here every once in a while.

We are going to need them to be as fresh as possible in the 4th. Maybe if JJ will stop auditioning for the cover of Tiger Beat with his cuteness we might actually get back in this thing.

I'd like to see a Marvin/Childress wing combo.
