Game 36: Atlanta at Toronto

[bumpyphish1]

Where's GSU Teke when you need him?

Their fans are going to rip Al a new one over the TJ Ford incident...Al needs to go over and speak to him pre-game. That might work wonders on the fans...probably not.

Anyhow, after losing to the Bucks, I would REALLY like to see us get out of here with a Win.

My only concern is Al playing tentatively. He needs to play balls to the walls...

Solo and Shelden must sheriff the lane too.

I don't make the thread and all of a sudden we have a Diesel sighting?

Thanks Bump.

I would have PO'd some people on this board if I had made this one.

I think the Hawks settled for too many jumpers last game and reverted back to "Woody Ball."

You don't get cold from 4 foot in.

[gsuteke]

Zaza has been upgraded to OUT INDEFINATELY

[exodus]

Smith going nuts.

The rest of the team....ugh.

I like the aggression from Marvin though, just not the results.

[gsuteke]

I won't be able to see it but I'm hoping the Hawks don't lay a big fat tird in the 3rd quarter again.

[killa3312]

Bargnani is really bad.

AJ got ejected? This is what the play by play on mobile ESPN says. WTF did he do, if he got ejected? LOL @ that if true.

OK Acie . . this is your moment of truth if he got tossed.

[JJJJ]

Just wondering, could Bosh get ANOTHER call? LMAO, a player spins into a double team and gets the foul call...Toooo funny.

Yeah he and Calderon had apparently been talking smack. AJ was on offense and trying to make a cut and Calderon was in front of him bent over. AJ elbowed him to the head. It wasn't that hard but Calderon went down like he had been shot.

That definitely was a "Euro Soccer-like dive" Calderon took. I'm excited to see Acie take the reins in the second half though (assuming Woody doesn't get too freaked out and turn to the Closer - let's pray not). The more quality minutes Acie gets, the better imo.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

LOL . . Who would've thought that AJ would be our "enforcer".

Mr. Law needs to take full advantage of this opportunity to play with the starters.

[bumpyphish1]

Acie is still way too timid. I hate to say it but scared is almost what I would call it. Afraid to fail. That's what he is.

He had a layup on that TO early in the half but he decided to try to boris diaw it out to someone for three. Way too deferential and scared to fail right now. Let's go ACIE!

[TroyMcClure]

T-Lue comes in and guess what? Just terrible defense the last three possesions of the qtr. Two 3's and an unbumped cutter. His pounding is getting so old, too. Only two people touch the ball when he's in.

The Closer is showing up in the 4th though. The Clooooooooooserrrrr lol.

[TroyMcClure]

Where is everbody? Do squakers have lives all of a sudden? lol!

[SmooveTheFuture]

Woodson is the biggest idiot coach in the NBA. As hot as Josh Smith was in this game he barely ran any plays for him and sat him for a long time in 2nd quarter after he was on fire clueless coach needs to be fired. WHen a player is hot like him you get him the damn ball.

[DJ_Money]

Our inability to execute on the road in the 4th quarter is mind-numbingly frustrating. I'm not looking forward to next week. Hell, I'm not even looking forward to Monday...and I already took a half day at work to come down to the game.

[bumpyphish1]

jesus, Lue sucks. WTF was up with that circus pass? Awful. Woody finally pulled him. Way to send a great signal to Acie, Woodhead. You dumbazz unqualified fu*ker

[Murat]

What a [censored]!ng meltdown. They killed us, they toyed with us.
