Vafan Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I was calling for Zaza to get out of the game. Dude is horrible. I think I was the only hawks fan in the entire building Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I was the only hawks fan in the entire building I was there wearing last years red Josh Smith jersey. I was just a few rows behind their bench and i was yelling at Zaza too. What a scrub.

Vafan Posted December 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Yeah, I did notice a Hawks fan there wearing a jersey. I was in section 107. After every made free throws, I would stand up and make a hush signal with my finger and mouth. It really annoyed all the fans around me. Even my little cousins started to do the signal after every free throw. They become hawks fan after last night thanks to me. They started to high five me, clap after every shot and jumping up and down. I made three new Hawks fan last night. I was talking trash throughout the game. Thank goodness the Hawks were able to pull it out last night. If the Wizards would have won, I was in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exodus Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 LOL I don't think the girl next to me enjoyed my yelling very much either. I wasn't talking trash though. It was pretty funny how they were getting the fans to boo with pictures of the Cowboy's star on the big screen when the Hawks were shooting free throws.

TexasPete Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Seriously, Shelly can't take ZaZa's minutes? What's up with that? Z is just horrible right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Now that the other guys have raised their game his lack of ability is more obvious. He stands out like a sore thumb given he is slow and white. I would be willing to give Shelden more minutes to see if he can raise his game.

Premium Member AtLaS Posted December 22, 2007 Premium Member Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Zaza just sucks, but that isn't the problem. He thinks he's a goto scorer. EVERY TIME he gets the ball, he faces up and tries to make a move or take a jumper, he won't just accept his role and pass it back out. He holds it for a minimum of 5 seconds every time he touches the ball. He thinks he's a damn 1 on 1 player. I bet he's been blocked on that face up jumper more than anyone in the history of the NBA. You would think he would learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB21 Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Zaza was a solid player for the Hawks when the team was bad and still in the building process. Now that the team has matured and gotten pretty good, his play has become more of a hindrance. The numbers he put up on a bad team made his contract a bargain, but he's showing now that he's a bit player at best on a good team. I don't think Mike will end up cutting his playing time though, because Mike seems to think that we need Zaza's size out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that we used to rely on his points (proof of how bad we were) and he hasn't adjusted to what is new role should be. If he can come in and scrap, get some put backs and boards then he'll be a solid player for us. 4 TO's last night and everyone came when he was trying to score from the high post. He has no business doing anything but passing that far away from the basket. It wasn't long ago when everyone was talking about the Zaza signing being BK's best move.

Dukegotgame Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Zaza does suck. He is so clumsy with the ball and seems to think he is good at going one on one. No defense whatsoever and misses tons of layups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToeKnee Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 You all need to wait a minute on this one. The Hawks have been rolling lately and ZAZA needs to be given a few games to get back up to speed. Woody has worked him in a little bit, but not so much where he screws up the game, note the W's. haha. i expect zaza to look better after the break. the thing about being sidelined in basketball is that you really need to play!! you cant just get better in the gym! you've got to play live games, "game-speed", patience my friends. I'm just glad that woody has some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the [censored] did he not see Zaza was sucking it up out there and yet played at about half of the 4th quarter last night? When he finally took Zaza out (horford in), we begin to look like a team again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vafan Posted December 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 Great post. Dead on about Zaza game. The funny thing is my little cousin who is only 11 had this to say about Zaza. "Zaza is a ball hog, why does he hold the ball until the horn sounds?" This is coming from a mouth of a 11 year who doesn't even play or watch basketball that much.

Plainview1981 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 He was a threat to blow that game last night. The Hawks would play well until he came in and kept turning the ball over allowing Washington to start taking control of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a Taco Bell item. (( ordering )) "I'd like a Gordita, 2 Chalupas, and a Turnover Pachulia to go." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
