Magic Number

[jeddelong]

I believe the Hawks Magic Number for the most ping pong balls is 9 (the combination of our losses combined with Bobcat wins to gaurantee our position)

I might have guessed in the first few months that we wouldn't get 20 wins. I never would have guessed that we wouldn't get 15.

you've got to take into account the quite sincere fact that we're playing two rooks considerable minutes, one of which is straight out of hs, don't have a pg (or even a ptfrwrd now)...

at least the bobcats have had 'stability' with a fraction of their lineup...qith the exception of Wallace's injury, they have been relatively healthy (to my loose-observation)...

The Hawks have had so little continuity...remember when we had Anderson playing sig minutes? Diaw never played a lick? Toine was racking up consistent double-doubles...

we're a rising coaches nightmare (sorry Woodson). Honestly, I thankful that we simply have a gm who wants to contend (not just plug holes) and one's who's seemingly 'dedicated' to his young coach (unlike Denver's sit).
