If u are a fan of Josh u are not a fan of the Hawks!

[Bonkers]

How he played tonight was an absolute disgrace. I don't give a damn about that last 3. Al was inside scrapping and this chump was getting his reggie miller on floating around the 3 pt line. He hardly even wants to help out down there

He shot 31% tonight!!! That is horrendous for anyone but for somebody playing the 4 that is more ridiculous than penguin porn!

I'd rather watch two Hippopotamuses deep throat each other than watch that atrocity again

/Rant over

Can anyone prove my title wrong???

Josh floats around the 3. line every night for half the game. I'm so tired of this clown I really can't wait till he's gone.Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD

We all are fans of "Good Josh" . . . the Josh that is our defensive anchor and does a great job moving the ball and setting up others.

We're not a fan of "Bad Josh" . . . the freewheeling, careless offensive player who tries to do too much.

The 3 he made isn't as big as his rebounding, defense, and shot alterations in that 4th quarter. I've been wearing the dude's jersey all day, even if he does disgust me at critical times. I'm a supporter of him when he plays his role. I'm not a supporter of his when he thinks he's Lebron James.

And stop watching porn. Hippos deep throating each other? WTF?

Dumbest thread title in Hawksquawk history.

Blame the coach. FIRE LARRY DREW

Josh is a very polarizing player, in many ways. I was screaming and hating on him when he turned the ball over or forced up bad shots and then loving him when he made several big defensive stops. You're right that the 3 wasn't as important as the defensive stops.

Fire Larry Drew for a lot more reasons than Josh... Josh's problems are his own now, not some coaches... Drew is Poo

Probably let down from the chaos re possible trade but he's never been consistent

Hater Alert!!

[Brotha2ThaNite]

So if you dont hate josh (who plays for your fav team) you dont like the Hawks? If you hate him then you love the Hawks? What happens to you when Josh resigns with the Hawks? Heartache? Lmbo!To be hating on anyone from a sports team you got some issues.

[AHawks89]

Damn! I didn't even know there was a game last night. Looking at the box score he missed 13 shots, put up 13 boards, and had 5 assist, 3 steals, and 1 block shot. Then looking at Al, he missed 11 shots, had 11 boards, 3 assist, 2 steals, and 1 block shot.

And of all people, you make a thread bashing Josh? LOL.

Love you man. No homo.

Edit: Looked like Teague had a nice game AND ZAZA!

So, a power forward shooting 31% in one game is more ridiculous than penguin porn?More to the point, yes. I'll offer a simple proof: I am both a fan of Josh and a fan of the Hawks.

cause he almost gave the game away... jacking up three and long jumpers in crunch time then turning the ball over because you want to bring it up then jennings hitting a 3 in a result of that turnover you deserve to be bashed. horford shot 11-22 and was on fire the whole game. smoove shot 6-19 with 6 three point shot attempts and was cancerous most of the game.

This is about the dumbest post I have ever read. If you dont like the Hawks because of Smoove, then I gladly say, go just on the Heat bandwagon with everyone else. TURRIBLE

[AHawks89]

Missing 11 shots is called being on fire now? Josh missed 2 more shots than Horford so I guess Josh was about to catch fire.

Nice! Love your logic.

I don't hate any player that plays on my favorite team. More to the point, I root for Josh Smith. Point blank, he's one of the best players we have. It's been almost nine years. The dude is not gonna change... How many threads can possibly still be started about his shot selection? I only opened this one because how ridiculous the title is.

Thank the lord that somebody agrees with me on this. Its like beating a dead horse. Its already down, its not gonna get back to normal. With as much hate as we are giving him (which I cant stand at this point), we are not giving him or AL the credit that they deserve. They have both been playing great basketball this month. And for all of you that keep saying his shot selection is terrible he is shooting 50% from the field and over 50% from three this month. Do I like his shot selection? Hell no, but if he continues to shoot 50% im not going to hate on it.

Some positives about the team every once in a while would be cool? Ya know? Instead of the dumbass hate threads posted on a daily basis.

SMH. Please stop.

You say you didn't watch the game, so why don't you believe what he told you?

Josh was actually 5 - 18 FG in that game, but hit a huge 3 pointer with time running down on the shot clock to bring us within 1 point. Before that point, he was damn near doing everything possible to lose that game for us. Josh's defense down the stretch was big in securing the win.

But don't act like a player missing 13 shots, but only making 6 of them, is even close to comparable to a player missing 11 shots, but making 11. You went to school. You're not dumb. So please stop acting like it.

I don't agree with the title of the thread, but maybe the title should be this:

If you constantly defend Josh's play, even when he's obviously doing things to hurt the team . . you're more of a Josh Smith fan than you are a Hawks fan.

Until that dude stops trying to do things he has no business doing, he's going to be despised by some. Had we lost that game last night, the "hate" he'd be receiving right now would be unbelievable.

- Props to Horford for being steady all game, and being big time at the end. He looked like a legit All-Star last night.

- Props to Teague being aggressive all game and running the offense

- Props to Smith's defense at the end and his work on the boards in the 2nd half

- Props to Zaza's great work on the offensive boards in the 2nd quarter, because we were on the verge of getting blown out

- And special props to Devin Harris, who provided offense in both the 2nd and 4th quarters when we were behind.
