gsuteke Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 VS @ AKA The Good Guys The Bad Guys ESPN.com NBA Preview Atlanta Hawks guard Joe Johnson finally shook off his worst slump of the season. He's had little trouble getting into a grove against the Washington Wizards in the last two seasons. After helping the Hawks end a long losing streak, Johnson looks to continue his scoring surge against the Wizards when the teams continue their season series Friday night. Johnson scored 29 points as Atlanta (16-16) snapped a four-game skid with a 90-81 win over Cleveland on Wednesday night. The Wizards' 101-90 win at Atlanta on Nov. 10 was their first of the season and started a season-high six-game winning streak after they opened the season 0-5. They have not lost more than three straight since. Washington had won four of six before shooting 41.1 percent (30-for-73) in a 92-84 loss to short-handed Houston on Tuesday night. The Wizards haven't beaten a team with a winning record since a 101-97 victory over Toronto on Dec. 1. With Arenas out, Washington has also tightened up its defense, yielding an average of 92.8 points in its last 18 games. Strong defense has helped put the Hawks and Wizards in the midst of the Eastern Conference playoff race. They are among five teams hovering around the .500 mark, making head-to-head contests between them crucial. Statistics Atlanta Washington The Atlanta Hawks would like to welcome you to Phillips Arena tonight as they take on Washington with early playoff implications on the line. You know something, the Wizards coming to town tonight could actually work in our favor. After all.......... *open the following YouTube Link Now in a New Window for audio and minimize before continuing* They are known for their Magic The possibilities are endless if we use their sorcery to conjure up lost souls We could rransform A Chillz to a Smitty A Horfy to a Deke A Lue to a Doc A Bush to a Tree A Law to a Spud Marinate on this for a little bit A Smoove to a Reef A Joe to a Nique An Old Man to an Older Man An AJ to a Mookie One broken down guy to another broken down guy One worthless piece of Poo to another What Would we have Hawks fans?

Murat Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 I talked to Zaza today he had something on his foot and said he doesn't know if he will play or not. He is cool, he was with an older man maybe his dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't take any offense to comments like that. When people don't post in the game threads is when I take offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsuteke Posted January 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Zaza has an ingrown toenail. WTF? http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=a...ies/injury.aspx I guess that's good for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsuteke Posted January 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Hopefully the Hawks come out strong unlike they have the past few games. Washington is the type of team the Hawks need to win against. They (Atlanta) aren't a "good" team yet so Ws against the middle of the pack squads are crucial.

I have ZERO access to this game, and have no possible way to see any Washington games. We get Comcast Philly here. It makes no sense...and I work for Comcast!
