gsuteke Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 How do you pass that ball if you're Jeff Teague? When he passed it to Horford there was 3 seconds on the clock and he was at the 3 point line. He gave it up to a Center on the run to shoot a 3 on the move when you only needed 2 points. Shumpert was facing Teague who had been driving to the basket at will all night. It was a drive for a layup or a likely foul call. Im pulling my hair out right now.

Lurker Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Teague needed to keep driving or just shoot it himself. He had a great game despite a low-ish FG% but the pass there wasn't the right move, especially to a three point shooter that isn't a good three point shooter.

Trout7 Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 I was born in 1966 and have been fans of all Atlanta sports teams. I am not complaining, it is just what happens at the end of almost virtually all games at crunch time. I think all the Hawks nerves get to them somehow in the clutch. I accept this, it is what it is.

I don't mind that decision, if Teague drives with three seconds the help defense will get there and there isn't time to kick out. However, there were a lot of plays and decisions in crucial times in the fourth and OT that were very questionable and unfortunate. The Baze unforced TO, the Thabo three point attempt early in the shot clock, the Paul Millsap ISO call in the wing. Burning a TO for no reason etc... We need to get better at end of game situations, it has been an issue all year. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUhawksfan Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 I think Teague was just trying to not make the same mistake he did in regulation and run the clock out. That's the one that got me more than anything, just get a damn shot up at the rim at least! He actually should've passed early to Al in that situation when they came to double, but instead did it in OT when it made less sense? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plainview1981 Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Boston goes in and knocks off GS while the Hawks biggest achievement is beating up on crappy teams like Chicago, Washington and Detroit. Boston is not going to beat Cleveland, but they might be the 3rd best team in the conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
