Not that I am for or against it, but it looks like Philly is starting to move players. Korver just went to Utah for Giricek and a pick.

Just ordered food from the bar across the street. I am firing up the rum and am here for at least the first half.
T McC - you have shamed me into staying.

Understood. I've got a meeting with "Sweeney Todd" in my near future!
Quote:And I don't think this is the biggest game in 10 years.This is the first time we've had a winning record at this point in nine years! Each game we win, our confidence grows. If we can beat the Mavs again, I think it really says something about where we are going.
I actually went to see Sweeney Todd on Wednesday. I hate musicals, but it was done pretty well.
I am debating staying here for some of the game. Decisions, decisions!

This is the biggest Hawks game in 10 years and you're going to go pay $4 for a beer and watch, what is it today, the carquest Bowl or something? What gives?
I assure you there is a female involved. And I don't think this is the biggest game in 10 years...I am DVRing it. Maybe I will stay here for the 1st half.

I will be at the bar drinking and watching bowl games, but I am DVRing it. If everyone could be so kind as to NOT post about the game until I have watched it, I would greatly appreciate it. DAL/ATL posts can commence around 7pm tonight. Thanks!

Is Chich Hearn the old Boston announcer..."Bird with the steal....underneath to DJ....ITS GOOD !!!!!
What a great call....he had that Larry Munson growl in his voice.
Who is Gus Johnson ?
C'mon, man! Chick Hearn was the voice of the Lakers for 60 years! You are thinking of Johny Most. And I think he ended that call with "DJ lays it in", not "it's good". He was awesome. Another favorite is the Pittsburgh Steelers football announcer. His name escapes me at the moment.
Myron Cope. He is an idiot. I can't stand his voice. Bad bad bad college memories of their 1995 SB run.

Check out this site. Scroll down to check out how he breaks down the Indy D and their philosophy. He uses highlights of our game against them to demonstrate. Thought the site was very worth it to read as well. Highly informative.

I am expecting a loss at Dallas. We have at Cleveland and at Indy after that, followed by a nice home stand. I am hoping we can come out of these three road games with 2 wins. Would be nice to come home with 2 more wins. The 5 home games are all winnable games. Best case scenario: 6-2. Worst case: 4-4.

Horford is one of the most energetic and efficient players I have ever seen. He brings 110% every play. I think his attitude alone has helped the Hawks this year. He has been fantastic.

Quote:The Hawks still have defensive breakdowns when they get sizable leads. They did so with Indy tonight and gave Indy some open three's in the 4th when they should have totally nailed the game down and turned this game into a blowout.Woodson should limit Childress and ZaZa's 4th period minutes. They're the biggest weak links on the defensive side of the ball. I'm totally uneasy when Childress is guarding quick players late in the game.
So now we are winning, but not by enough?

Quote:dallas has a 5 game winning streak...lets take it to them on saturday!
I think we get killed in DAL on Saturday, but that is OK. We are winning more than losing and we are NOT folding anymore in tight games.
-
Zaza redeems himself!!
-
Quote:Horford's going to be a good offensive player in time. He has a lot of moves and that jumper is money.
I see a playr very similar to Barkley with the way he bangs out there. He can handle the ball pretty well, too. He gets that offensive game down and look out!

Merry Christmas! Happy birthday, Santa!!

How did I know I would see the word "warrior"? Even on PTI, I knew it was coming and they said it no less than 4 times.

Quote:it was a big game for us, to move over .500 for the first time in nearly a decade, but it wasn't a big game beyond that. Miami stinks this season, they aren't just a good team that hasn't put it together yet. They are flat out a bad team.I wonder if we could get Shaq from them from filler and maybe a pick?
Wow...could you imagine a Shaq coming here motivated to show he shouldn't have been traded? He'd probably look 28 again.

Quote:You're right exodus...I didn't have it because I didn't see the greatness of Marvin.There I was suggesting that we draft either Paul or Deron over Marvin during that draft.... What the Hell was I thinking??I should have sided with Exodus and Lascar and especially Dr. KB21 who said that Marvin would be the 2nd coming of James Worthy. Hell, He's more than that.. He's potentially better than Jordan!
To be fair, Pippen and Grant did all the hard work in those games. Jordan just did what he did every night. Nothing special.

Quote:Quote:Really, the key now is if he can bring this type of game consistently. He's no spring chicken.Getting rid of Lue is the best thing that happened to the team. He kills the Hawks and should only play in an absolute emergency.AJ is far from a great PG but he manages the game better and gets the ball where it needs to go most of the time.Imagine how good this team would be with a real NBA quality PG...AJ is a little long in the tooth and that is a concern. With a true NBA PG this team goes to the playoffs.
I agree with all of this. I hated the AJ pick up last year. But if he's here, he should be playing.
Woody is such an idiot. He should have been playing AJ long ago. I think he doesn't like the way AJ bucks him, like that WTF? look the other night. It is so obvious that he is better than Lue in every way. If AJ had been playing we could be a few games higher in the standings. We were just throwing games away with Lue. This is why Woody will kill us if we get in the playoff mix. Unless we have a perfect storm of injuries that force him to not suck.
I actually mentioned in the chat room last night that all the injuries we have has forced Woody to NOT screw up the substitutions. He did still make some weird moves, but far less than usual.

1. Larry Brown - he will immediately bench Acie Law. He hates young players. Watching him coach the Sixers was infuriating at times. I know he is a good coach, but he just ain't coming here.
2. Del Harris - I know hardly anything about him except that he coached in China. I doubt he is the answer.
3. Paul Westhead - Um...remember what he did to Denver in the early 1990's? No thanks.
Just a reminder- The Hawks/Mav game is at 1:00pm
in Homecourt

1. We made a nice little run there to close the gap. Horford wanted to take over. Acie looks healed.
2. I am moving to Dallas. The girls at this game are SMOKING hot.
