Premium Member Diesel Posted January 17, 2015 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I turn over to see what's going on at ESPN. Their lead basketball story is the Cavs holding off the Clipps??!!?!??? Who gives a damn! But I can let that slide.. But I noticed on their basketball site, there is no picture of no Hawks. I look at their stories, and there's only one story on the basketball page that mentions us. Then the kicker, I look at a sportsnation Poll and the people believe that the Bulls will win the East? It just means we have more to prove... We....The South!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Mule Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Diesel: I'm loving it! Bulls are expected, by the brains over at ESPN, to win it all. After all, they have that super star playing PG. A super star is a must, we've all heard, if a team is even to compete in the playoffs, Sadly, Hawks have no super star so that means we can't. Bulls are expected to go on a roll beginning with their victory tonight. Their next five victims? The Cavs, Spurs, Mavericks, Heat and Warriors. Win all six of these games and they are on their way. We'll see, starting tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randawg91 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Eh, they actually covered us pretty well last night on SC. After showing our highlights, then an interview of Horf, they had a "Are Hawks really this good?" discussion. They all said yes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) Eh, they actually covered us pretty well last night on SC. After showing our highlights, then an interview of Horf, they had a "Are Hawks really this good?" discussion. They all said yes.What he's saying is we should have at least followed the Cavs on LBJCenter. We are on a historic blistering pace. 10 or 11 CONSECUTIVE winning road games including the big boys out West - who does that? Only the Hawks. I keep saying the media has no idea how to handle the Hawks success. They are so used to the focus being on one player it's tough for them because they have to do actual work for our entire group. Lazy bums. Edited January 17, 2015 by JayBirdHawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhillboy Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) Stephen A. was pretty effusive in his praises after his initial comments. After we double-digit Chicago, he's gonna have an even more eloquent soliloquy that should go perfect with his Knicks disgust every Sunday Morning. I thought it was interesting he said "they're among the best teams in the league" after he said "I don't care about GS." There's more than a little media distrust of Kerr seeming to stem from within NBA circles and maybe former colleagues? We have to pillage the NBA to get a mention, so be it. And Greg Anthony likes us as much as DC area hookers. Edited January 17, 2015 by benhillboy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Final_quest Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 We will never get their respect. Even if we win a title. The only way we become a consistent story on ESPN is with a superstar. Don't expect a lot of coverage regardless of our performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Sothron Posted January 17, 2015 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 SAS was just on SC and he was heaping our team with praise. Said we are legit and could win it. So not everyone as ESPN is ignoring us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJlaysitup Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Maybe Coach Bud could help the team out as far as getting more press. He wouldn't need to change anything substantive - just do his pressers in a beige leisure suit with an orange shirt and a gold chain. Heck, I never throw anything away - I probably have one I could loan him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
