Hawks vs Heat Game Thread

[Brotha2ThaNite]

Well guys, I'm hangin with you all tonight in the chat window.

I got a feeling it is not going to be as easy as it was Sunday.

What about you?

One thing I do like is that we got the TV spot over the Magic/76ers game :beer:

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Wade & co. will not be as bad as they were on Sunday. However, if we bring the same energy and keep the defensive pressure on them like we did on Sunday, it really won't matter if Wade goes off, because the rest of their team will most definitely be held in check.

Once again, us playing great D will be the key. If our defense is at the same level that it was on Sunday, we will hopefully enter Miami this weekend with a 2-0 lead.

Turnovers are killing the Hawks so far. They are shooting fine when they actually get a shot off.

Well I think it is obvious that Flip should not be guarding Wade. He just destroyed him in the second

Welp, this game has gone just as I feared it would.

Flip should understand that he has help if he gets beat.

Meanwhile he is 0-7 from the field.

Did Woody forget that Marvin Williams is still on the team?

Woody's logic is to leave our best man defender on the bench and let backups try to guard an MVP candidate.

Wade is back at it with that bullsh-t. Obvious flop and the refs call a foul.

[DrReality]

It is gut check time. Have to own the home cour4t in the last five minutes.

[DrReality]

FT killing us. Along with their red hot shooting.

[LOL_Hawks]

That's game. Now we gotta go to Miami and steal one.

[DrReality]

They are shooting 58% on their threes. Hard to beat that. We had our perfect game and they have had theirs.

[Supporter]

Hard to get back in the game, when your best player chockes, and a journeyman like flip murray is taking all the shots.

[WraithSentinel]

Truly one of the most pathetic efforts and games I have seen from this team all year.

[exodus]

Marvin needs more than 19 minutes. Wade went off when he was being guarded by Flip and Mo and that was what changed the game.

Glad i am not Joe Johnson today

lol the heat were 15 for 27 in 3's and we were still in it at the end. The effort was there...they just couldn't miss.

When we got the momentum going, Joe Johnson and Flip Murray ruined it. Joe Johnson constantly drove into the hole with two people on him (even though he would end up rushing the layup/floater) while leaving Bibby wide open out in the perimeter. Flip Murray is so easy to read -- if he sees a slightly open lane, he will drive... the chances of him passing it out in that situation is about .0001%. Great decision to play him over Marvin down the stretch, Woodson.
