Official Game Thread: Hawks - Wizards GAME 3 (5 PM Tip!)

[BrazilianHawk]

Milsap is OUT of here. Im telling you, the Milsap/Horford front court undersized experiment is over. Bud has a FULL year now of watching BOTH Milsap and Horford get ate up inside. I saw one play where Gortot just dominated Horford for a easy 5 foot shot at the front of the rim. Coach Bud almost lost it. He is NOT used to seeing Duncan get ate up like that. The Hawks WILL get a defending big into that lineup.

 

first... he's name is MILLSAP.

 

second... you're setting yourself for some delicious crow when the offseason comes. Millsap is a hard worker, exactly the type of player Bud and Ferry want. He should be back.

 

third... we don't have to get rid of goos players because we need a defensive big. Edy is coming.

I'm really wondering what the heck was up with DeMarre. This is a very weird response. Maybe he caught the flu from Millsap and was scared he would crap his pants if he went into the game. Was he mad because he got benched?

 

Did anyone see the interaction with him and Bud?

Who should we have played? DMC was on the bench with an injury, Millsap was on the bench with the flu, Horford is too slow to guard the small ball lineup...

Sap would've had to suck it up for 14 seconds or you put in Mike Scott. Paul Pierce isn't quick enough to get past Mike Scott.

on another forum someone theorized that he simply had to use the bathroom (number 2) and was too embarrassed to admit it.

 

there maybe some truth to that

DMC was not injured!

As soon as i saw Joey Crawford out there I knew we were sunk.   That dude needed to go 10 years ago.

Wow.  That is really strange.

Do you think it could have been an FU to the coach for not playing him in the 4th?  Maybe he feels like he has been playing his ass off, and did not deserve to sit.  Coach put him in for the last play, but he took himself out as a way of sticking it to him.
