Jeffery123 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Not a big Horford fan, but I will give Al a pass on this game, however next game he need to represent the Hawks a little better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddielives Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 This is just the worst of the pro-Josh side in the Josh vs. Al civil war making their voices heard. It's fair to criticize Al for having a bad game. Just remember though, at least Al didn't take this game into his hands in the final minutes with a chance to win and heave up a long terrible jumpshot. That's the ouch that really still hurts to think about so put that in your blunts and smoke it Josh fan club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member NineOhTheRino Posted July 13, 2012 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) You guys ever noticed how mechanical Al look on the floor? No fluidity to his game at all.Summary of Al's game: Stop....Pause....PopYou do not build around that! If he was already partnered with a young and talented Rondo-like PG then maybe so but trying to build around a payer who does a few things well and nothing better than well is a waste. This is not sneaky way to say the Hawks should build around Josh. Building around Josh makes less sense. This is an open admission that I don't see what most here see in Al. Forget the stats. Dude just does not pass my eye test. Edited July 13, 2012 by NineOhTheRino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Sothron Posted July 13, 2012 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I can't believe anyone thought Al was going to put up good numbers against the best basketball team in the world when the guys he has around him on his own team probably couldn't beat a local YMCA team let alone a college team let alone a NBADL team let alone an actual NBA team let alone a team chocked full of future HoF players.

Jbrinson Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Al actually was decent. He just didn't finish at the basket. He got to the rim plenty of times but just miss dunks and Layups. I really don't think this game mattered to him. It was just a game for fans to see the USA beat up on little guys. His guards could barely get the ball down the court and then they made horrible passes. Al will be great this year just wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporter Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Makes me wonder how Josh would've done if he had to lead the Dominican Republic. I think Josh would put up 20-10 just because of how dynamic his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholasp27 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Makes me wonder how Josh would've done if he had to lead the Dominican Republic. I think Josh would put up 20-10 just because he would have shot 27 25'ers fyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect him to dominate, but he wasn't finishing at the basket. His guards were pretty bad. It was evident when Al took it upon himself to bring the ball up the court. However, the other big he was playing with was making some damn good.passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
