thefloydian Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 They should just start recruiting random fans from the stands. There's probably someone there who can play some defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruJerz Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 lol good one. but defense is really their main problem...even more than coaching. They get no stops..all they care about is scoring points. and yet, i still believe the Magic arent that much better than the Hawks lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefloydian Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 They don't even attempt to play defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member hawkman Posted March 11, 2008 Premium Member Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Say what you want about the team, but JJ's playing like he just got ressurected from the dead or something. Welcome back JJ! Now, where the heck is the rest of the team???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusBoyIsBack Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Teams that don't play defense actually RUN so they can score to make up for it. We don't do either. The saddest part? Our coach's specialty is supposed to be DEFENSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefloydian Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Yeah, JJ is the only one who's trying at all tonight. This is painful to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member hawkman Posted March 11, 2008 Premium Member Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Now that IS a shame. We were supposed to be a DEFENSIVE team first, remember? Wow. Woody hung his hat on defense and we are TERRIBLE on D. What the heck does that say about our coach???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncthompson11 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Wow we gave up 9 3s and 19 points to howard. shows what a dominant big man can do for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodson was brought in 4 years ago to teach defense. Horford on the bench with only 2 fouls and Solomon in there getting abused...... you have to wonder what Woody is thinking. Actually assuming he is actually capable of thinking is probably erroneous on my part. Zaza flat out sucks. Smith is a mess right now. Bibby shouldn't even be playing. He got outplayed by Salim. I feel sorry for JJ right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 The Hawks are fools if they keep any players on this roster other than maybe Al. Smoove? Marvin? JJ? F*ck'em all. If they were worth anything the Hawks record wouldn't be this bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruJerz Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 all they have to do is get tough..its that simple. you have to give a effort on defensive at least. it seems like they just dont care about getting stops. once they get that mentality, things will be better because they have players who have the ability to be pretty good defenders with MW JS and Hortford and even if you throw JJ and Chillz in there too..they are all quick enough to play NBA Defense..i dont get it! Offensively, they are fine though. Woodson gotta get these guys to play some Defense ASAP if they wanna stay in the race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have a coach who plays to a teams weaknesses more than their strengths, their record may not always be indicative of their talent.

Actually assuming he is actually capable of thinking is probably erroneous on my part. That's what I was saying in the chat room. You just can not play Solo on Dwight. EVER. If you need a few minutes from Solo, it has to be when Dwight is on the bench. And Horford picked up his 2nd foul with 7 or 8 minutes in the FIRST, and never sees another minute in the half as the lead steadily goes to 20. This is insanity. 2 fouls late in the 2nd quarter is NOT a big deal. Play Horford or even Zaza but not Solo. A monkey could tell you what's going to happen. A foul or a dunk every time.

Dukegotgame Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Where in the [censored] is Acie? Bibby can't defend a ghost right now. Supposedly Acie has been fine to play since last Friday... must be in Woody's doghouse for some stupid reason. [censored] Woody with an AIDS d*ck.. yeah I said that!

Our coach's specialty is supposed to be DEFENSE This is exactly the style of play that the vast majority of you wanted the Hawks to start playing. Let's play fast. Let's shoot 3's. If we become a better offensive team., the defense won't matter as much. Don't whine and cry now about defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lascar78 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 We don't know that Acie is fine to play. He may be dressed just to make our mandatory 12. I don't know though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
