y2kenta Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 http://www.nba.com/2009/allstar2009/01/29/...0129/index.html Maybe now he'll have something to feel good about and get his shot going again. We need a big game from Joe in the worse way these days. And we damnsho need to knock da the NJ Nets outta the building tomorrow night!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted January 30, 2009 Moderators Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Good for Joe. I hope this helps him break out of slump. (Something eventually has to...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mrhonline Posted January 30, 2009 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I have to be honest here. (Actually, I don't, but I'm going to anyway). I don't think Joe deserves it this year. The Hawks' success so far can be attributed to a lot of players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmooveTheFuture Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 joe doesnt deserve to be an allstar he is scoring 15 points a game in jan shooting like 36% thats not an allstar to me. Also why the hell does paul pierce make thea allstar team every year the guy is so overrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted January 30, 2009 Moderators Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I don't feel the slightest bit bad about Joe getting in there despite his crappy January. He was an All-Star earlier in the year and I have seen so many sub-par All-Stars get in because they played for a "winning team" that I don't feel the slightest bit bad when it benefits a Hawk.

MrRyda Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Yeah, what are ya'll talking about? Before January, Joe was playing lights out and was nailing clutch shots for us. He's in a shooting slump, but he's still contributing in other ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipCity71252 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hey guys, Blazer fan here. I feel your guys' pain. JJ is one of my favorite players to watch. He's always reminded me of our guy B-Roy, but right now he just doesn't look right. As many of you guys have been talking about, JJ just looks completely gassed right now. His shot is way off, and while most guys will try to drive the lane and get to the foul line, he just doesn't seem to have the energy to do so. I do like that he tries to do other thing on the floor when his offense is not there though. Here's to hopin' Joe get's going again so he and Roy can have an exciting H2H matchups this season :angel19: . (I have 2nd row tickets behind the hawks bench for the game in Portland, should be fun.)

LOL_Hawks Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 The guy goes into a slump and people say he doesn't deserve it. He was playing at a caliber to START the All-Star game before this slump. So he definitely deserves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsuteke Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Get ahold of yourselves people! Has the Hawks terrible record over the past 10 years conditioned us to hate on our own players? That question isn't directed at this thread, I've just seen posts about Joe not deserving it scattering across HS over the past couple of weeks. Perhaps we don't know how to accept/deal with success?

WraithSentinel Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 (edited) I hope this get him going. Edited January 30, 2009 by HawksJJHorford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJlaysitup Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I hope this get him going. JJ has a nice shot - he is an excellent SG...but something what he did the other night turned me on him...the ball was slapped backwards and he retreived it...like 8+ seconds on the shot clock..and he jacked it from way downtown. When the game was still a game - before Nate went off. It was the most selfish shot I have ever seen. It was like "flock you guys" and he shot from two or three steps beyond the 3 pt line. Worst shot I have ever seen in a competitive (meaning close) game I have ever seen.....Laziness or arrogance - take your pick - I'll take arrogance. One more pass or two and we could have got a cutter inside - I am getting sick and tired of JJ's act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrReality Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I was thinking that it would serve him better to go to a resort somewhere and get some rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exodus Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Well congrats to Joe but I'm disappointed because I'd rather see him get rest over the All-Star break. He played pretty well after the All-Star break last year. I don't think they are pushing themselves too hard in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
