People are going to knock stuff like this but I love it.  After years of TNT and ESPN (Tirico) trashing this team it's good to hear people talking about this team in a positive way.

I can't stand Tirico. He is the most biased announcer that I know of that is supposed to be neutral. I remember when he was giving it to the Falcons during the Katrina Bowl game on national TV.

[Dejay]

I listened to it. I felt a little uncomfortable after hearing them slobber on the Bulls for so long but...

[sturt]

And in that vein... can anyone give us some time marks so that we can skip to the good stuff that we care about?

[Plainview1981]

 

4 minutes of the Hawks offense.

 

Could you picture Ray Allen or Reggie Miller in this offense?

Bud....... is ....... a ..... genius

[DrReality]

He's not only a genius he also knows how to manage his players and their egos.  A bit of the Zen master?

Yep.  I was watching, really early this AM, a replay of one of the games on ESPN.

The announcer there said that the Chicago Bulls were the top team in the east

and would be expected to represent the east in the finals with their greatest

competition coming from Cleveland as soon as "The King" was again able to play.

I believe he said Washington had an outside shot.

 

No mention was made of the team that was, at that time, 2 1\2 games ahead of

every other team in the east and who had just overcome Memphis.

 

Some act as if Atlanta doesn't exist or that they don't matter.  Oh, well!

 

GO HAWKS !  Stop those Detroit Pistons before they explode.

I expect nothing from them so need to watch. I DVR NBATV Gametime then fast forward to the Hawks highlights.

That's it.

It was Jon Barry. He was covering the Suns/Wolves game and when they brought up how surprising this season has been and how many unexpected teams are serious contenders who intentionally did not mention Atlanta. Remember, he's still carrying a grudge about his playing time here.

Yeah I heard that too. I busted out laughing. He should let it go and act like he's actually aware of what's going on in present day NBA.

[benhillboy]

Beautiful video (or was it the music?). This offense is unstoppable, period. Defenders trying to figure out who has who while avoiding and getting bombarded with screens is just too much. The timing and synchronization of all 5 guys is impeccable, but the simple basis of it is that our guys show what they do all day in practice: Run-N-Shoot, Stewart Ave style.

Zach Lowe has always liked us.

Tom Ziller from SBNation is determined to be ahead of the popular curve on us as well. He's been raving about our efficiencies for a month.

I bet those defenders are so tired after the game, chasing Korver around and running through all those screens..lol.

Yeah.  And Korver is the most active but the whole damn offense looks like no fun to defend.   

[HawkItus]

At the 6 minute mark.

Oh My God.  Its so purty
