Game Thread: Washington Wizards @ Atlanta Hawks

[oiatlhawksfan]

no shot is going in, and all their shot are straight bottom!

[Cwell]

QUIT IGNORING ACIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[oiatlhawksfan]

nice shot marvin..

but Washington look just so much better, there's no way the hawks will win!

[lunar]

jeez, we're trowin up bricks out there right now. we need to get into rythem if we are going to win.

this is when i hate the hawks. they get bogged down in quicksand and look like a pickup team. find some easy baskets.

[CrawDaddy]

This is unacceptable. Washington can't buy a game anywhere else and they can't miss against our lackadaiscal defense. No rebounding on our part either. Hawks will be out of the playoff hunt after 20 games if this effort keeps up.

[Dexmethylphenidate]

They will if Acie plays more than 10 freaking minutes in the 2nd half. He needs at least 20 minutes to lead the offense to a comback.

and lue with the turnover...

LOL . . that turnover was horrible. Then he gets the passive touch foul.

And here goes Smoove with the long jumper. I'll excuse him though since we're down 16

[oiatlhawksfan]

This might sound cruel, but I wish lue was hurt on that play...

[Lawstudent101]

Is Josh Smith hurt guys? Seriously.

It's like he has lost his jumping ability.

No rebounding, no sick help defense blocks. No sick dunks.

What is going on with him?

[oiatlhawksfan]

Why doesn't Josh Dunk on those type of plays????!!!

[lunar]

our defense is horrible right now. the wizards are getting any shot they want. how are we supposed to cut into a lead when we can't get stops!

Nah . . don't wish for him to get hurt. Just wish for him to get pulled.

At least they're making an effort to take the ball to the basket a little more. They're starting to get to the FT line now. But the defense is absolutely horrible today.

LOL . . another lay-up for the Wiz. Down 19 now.

[HawksFan87]

talking about Smoove taking jumpers , Joe is 2-10 from 3 pt range... HE needs to drive the damn ball. Stop settling for the long jumper.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

The Wiz are notorious for blowing leads. They'll give us an opportunity to get back in the game. The question will be if we can knock down open jumpers and not turn the ball over.

[exodus]

Horford with 2 field goals and 3 turnovers. And don't get me started about his D on Haywood.

[Cwell]

but that is the ONLY way he'll get pulled.It's obvious Woodson doesn't care how bad he plays he'll get hella unearned minutes every game while better players sit

[TheNorthCydeRises]

OMG . . it's raining outside !! It rains maybe once every three weeks in the South these days.

[oiatlhawksfan]

they're just standing there, letting the Wizards grab rebounds! I think their intimidated!

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Yeah . . you may be right.

LMAO . . ironically, he's +2 today on the court.
