AUTOMATIC WIN FOR HAWKS - unofficial game thread

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Since Teke is on a negativity writer's strike, I might as well make a bold prediction. I'd be SHOCKED if we lost tonight. Flabbergasted even.

1) Detroit almost NEVER sweeps us for the season. Even the sorry 13 win Hawks, led by the 32 points that Lue scored, beat the Pistons at least once.

2) JJ's numbers after having adequate rest, usually go up. Expect a good all around game from him, even if the Pistons do try to shut him down.

3) This team was literally embarrassed Saturday night. They're pizzed, and will come out ready to play.

4) The role players play well at home.

5) We got a little "Jungle Karma" today, with Nique being on Jim Rome's radio show today. Nique was evrywhere this afternoon. We got that same karma last Tuesday, with Marvin on his TV show, which led to the win over the Lakers.

Expect victory tonight folks.

I hope your right.

I'm in agreement - I expect JS and Horford to do well tonight too. They'll probably make a run at us and make it relatively close, but I expect a win tonight.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Have faith young Skywalker.

Nice night to visit the chatroom

[Lascar78]

well there go our chances

Detroit is too disciplined to let the Hawks get off into a running game.

This game is all about the jumper. Marvin and JJ's jumpers need to be falling at a +.500 clip for the Hawks to be in this one at the end.

Someone please take Marvin out of this game this guy is doing jack [censored] out there he freaking sucks so bad. I never seen Marvin look so bad in a long time Woodson takes out Smith who was hot for this trash the lead is over is 13 go figure.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Marvin's jumper has been off lately. When his jumper is off, i wish he'd switch into attack mode and at least try to get his points at the line.

Use the Force . . . Marvin

Use the Force

[dalamchops]

rofl a lineup of law, chill, marv, wright, and z won't even win games in the D league, much less vs pistons. I'm glad we are on nbatv tonight so the whole world can see how retarded woodson is.

[gsuteke]

let's see if they can get it to 5 @ the half

3 pp Joe!

[Southern_Bred]

Dumbest Lineup of the year.

[DJlaysitup]

If not for JS this would already be a laugher....nice play by JJ there too (finally). The "Closer" needs to get hot!

[mattlanta]

Smith is the only one consistently playing on the offensive side of the ball.

[Johnnybravo4]

The Sheed chants are really annoying. We have the corniest fans in the history of sports.

[DJ_Money]

So tired of watching this same team, with the same issues, night after night...

[DJlaysitup]

Well - looked like we were gonna be down 15...made a little run. Let's see if we can come out strong for the 3rd QTR.

[Johnnybravo4]

We are having the same problem. No post play followed by missed forced jumpers.

[DJlaysitup]

and they are hurting us inside big....especially Johnson.

[DrReality]

Can't believe we are only three points in the third. But wait until the forth when they turn it on.
