pimp Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I didn't....i didn't think they had a chance on the road It sure feels good to be wrong. :static: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I didn't I was wrong. The biggest win of the year because Philly is so d@mn tough and they kept coming. They remind me of Detroit during the very early part of their run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plainview1981 Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I was wondering how they f*ck they can keep coming like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJHAWK Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I started a thread saying we could steal a win right after the loss last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exodus Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 It was a huge win. I was sure they would choke. It was really their defense that won tonight. They also took better care of the defensive glass which has been a huge weakness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my understanding, teams who lose the first of a home-and-home win the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefloydian Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I thought it would be close and was hopeful. Nice game tonight, even if it was ugly at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WraithSentinel Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I thought they had a chance for two reasons. One being most of Philly starters played heavy mins last night. The other reason is I was hoping the Hawks would try the zone defense on them just to see if it would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swolehawk2 Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I knew it, and and said so in a post lasyt night. Philly relies on teams making mistakes to be successful...they try to maul teams and get away with physical play because they can't shoot...and have nothing in the post. When we play smart we are much better than that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be Woody's, ahem, best coaching performance. Going to the zone against a poor shooting Philly club was the best move he's made in four years.

swolehawk2 Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Yeah, if had figured this out earlier, like most on this board, we could have swept Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly is the league leader in offensive rebounds and playing zone makes it tougher to box out. But then again the Hawks don't box out anyway so maybe i am a little off base lol. But they did the job on the defensive boards tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
