Game 6 Thread

Pretty even game so far. Marvin came out very assertive, but so did Pierce. JJ can't pick up cheap fouls tonight like that last foul.

"Mike Bibby screening for Joe Smith."

And here I thought Joe Smith was with Cleveland. Must have been a trade that I missed.

Josh Smith...still don't care to see you take a jump shot.

[bronnt]

Ah, there he goes. Finally realized that Joe Smith doesn't play for the Hawks.

Somewhat embarassing.

Absolutely terrible calls right now. Boston is getting everything. I wonder if the fix is in...

Well, I thought that should have been a charge on KG. But foul on Horford seemed fair enough. He got him clean up top, but got him on the body down low.

Don't forget, we got a bit of a gift call when Pierce should have gotten a jump ball that they called a foul instead to send Horford to the line. So at worst, it's misses on both sides.

why are we not trying to run!!!!!!!

[bronnt]

Two fouls on Horford. Say good-bye to him for the first half

[Plainview1981]

Hawks looking like a 37 win team again.

[Dukegotgame]

Pathetic rebounding. The rare time we get a stop we cannot even box out. What a joke.

Well, they can if we don't actually play defense. Most of these guys don't miss more than one or two shots in warm-up.

That's what the defense is like right now. Shooting warm-up shots.

Joe just acted like a bit of a punk. Not cool. Especially after that horrible turnover with about a minute left.

[CHORO44]

Why have we not made any adjustments? We still walk the ball up. Joe gets the ball and gets doubled and our bigs shoot long jumpers. Only Josh Smith is playing heads up.

We should be getting into our sets faster. Joe take the double to either side and a guy flashes center for a quick pass for a 4 on 3 advantage. If the Celtics collapse the bigs need to dribble in instead of the long jumpers that are going unguarded.

I HOPE WOODSON IS FIRED! This is not rocket science and is a replay of Game 5.

Good lord Josh . . .

We got lucky. They gave cassell a t for nothing. Joe fouled someone else over the back, no call, fell into sam and then kind of shoved him like a punk.

[Dukegotgame]

How clearer can it be that Acie needs to play instead of Bibby? Maybe the guy in the clown suit on the sidelines will figure it out sometime....

[pimp]

We need to leave Law in the game.He's outplaying Bibby right now.

Just when you say that Josh Smith is playing heads up...he made THAT pass.

Okay, we had a nice little run witht he second unit in against their second unit. Their first unit is coming back and we NEED to get our tops guys back in. I'm saying this with the foreknowledge that Horford is going to remain on the bench until halftime. I expect Boston to go on a run here to increase the lead to 15 or so.

[pimp]

I how they are seeing how much easier it is to score when they run, instead of letting Boston setup their defense.
