The Hawks Seem Like A FAMILY

[AScentCalledZaza]

Joe Johnson(Dad)

Strong but silent, can appear cold and distant. Has carried the weight of the family on his shoulders for years and it shows. Deep down he loves his family but might decide to run out on us. Still, can't deny that he is our provider, steadily bringing home the bacon for years.

Mike Bibby(Step-mother)

Not quite as beautiful as in her youth. Embraced us with open arms after our biological (Speedy) was never there for us. She's got a lot of faults but is a good one, who stood up for us when we were being mugged during a trip to Bean-town a couple of years ago. When we tend to get arrogant and think we can do better without her around, we are usually reminded how quickly we can lose ourselves when our "security-blanket" isn't there to keep us calm and confident.

Josh Smith(twin-brother)

Born first. Been here from the beginning, grew up through hard times. Disgusting amount of potential that has been flashed for years. However, he is a hot-head who has made some stupid mistakes over the years, gives everybody head-aches, but only because we know how great he would be if his head caught up to his body. Has recently showed a steady amount of maturation, and is quickly growing into a man we can all be proud of.

Marvin Williams (twin-brother)

Second-born. Seems to have a bit of middle child syndrome, with confidence issues that need to be confronted for him to grow. Is almost certainly a secret genius, who is capable of moments of brilliance, and has demonstrated so in the past. Ironically, seems to thrive when dad isn't around, might be able to help shoulder the family's burden should dad abandon us.

Al Horford (little brother)

Youngest son but never acted like it. Came out with a bang, took on an almost father-like role very early on, a very bold kid. Makes sure the homework gets done and the chores get finished, we feel more comfortable confiding in him than we do from our dad. Could never truly replace his father, but does an admirable job making sure we don't miss a fatherly influence when dad's not feeling up to it.

Jamaal Crawford (uncle)

Dad's brother. Didn't know he was our relative until he showed up here. A bit of a drifter, came in from a stint on the West Coast. Now that he' s here, it's hard to imagine him anywhere else. A cooler version of dad, who lets us ride on his motorcycle and can do lots of cool stuff. Still, if he had to be our provider, we'd be in big trouble.

Zaza Pachulia (adopted son)

Adopted from Georgia, lives in Georgia. Fiercely loyal, an emotional reservoir for the family who continues to surprise. A classic over-achiever who is unintelligible yet irreplaceable.

Jeff Teague (baby girl)

Very precocious youngster who already shows signs of being a beauty, like her mother in her youth. Still, being so young, has be watched very closely to not get herself into trouble, as she doesn't yet know her own limits.

Mike Woodson (Family Station-Wagon ?)

Not the newest or most impressive car on the road, but it's OUR car. Been wanting to upgrade for years, but over time has proved it's worth by steadily getting us where we want to go. Holds a deep amount of sentimental value, has been here through some tough times. Even now though, when things go wrong, is one of the first things we want to get rid of.

Very good. Someone spent quiet a bit of time on this.

Seems we have some cousins who are a part of this family also.

(They make up the remainder of the bench) These cousins live

at our house and pitch in with the work only when necessary.

One of the odder posts I have seen in this space. I guess that rookie hazing photo of Teague boarding the plane at Hartsfield would support your theory on his role.

[benhillboy]

Great Read.

Jason Collins: The often missing-for-weeks, drug-addicted uncle whom everyone loves and respects because he's definately been around the block and imparts wisdom on mistakes he's made, but family members take it with a grain of salt becausae he keeps messing up. The family has learned to laugh to keep from crying. Been to countless rehab centers, none worked. Still love him unconditonally: no one else does.

Sure, you can post it.

I didn't mention Acie Law in this, anything concerning Roe V. Wade is bound to divide.

Would you like to add a few pieces from the past.

[DeacKillsaDevil]

Don't forget to mention FIRE WOODSON! HE BLOWS!

[DJlaysitup]

Excellent!...I would change the Woodson story though:

Mike Woodson (Eldest Uncle)

Grew up with the game and became very adept. Sadly, was kicked in the head by a mule. The injury destroyed all of his understanding of offensive basketball sets/schemes/spacing and the like, but miraculously left his defensive knowledge intact.

Josh Childress

the son that ran away and will be disowned from the family once he tries to return to the neighborhood (NBA)

Mario West

the family pet, full of energy, gives his all, & everyone loves him, but the house got too crowded and he was the most expendable.
