bird_dirt Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Zaza, you were a giant basketball magnet grabbing rebounds tonight. Thank you for stepping up you game while others (ahem...) lacked a little something. Flip, thank you for taking over on the offensive at the end to keep us ahead in the final quarter. Josh, PLEASE quit shooting jumpers. Joe, please step up your game man -- you're too quiet. Zaza was the man tonight. We can thank him for ending the playoff road drought.

WraithSentinel Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Zaza really was the key to this game. He was giving 110% out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 That MoFo came to play tonight. While other players played with this tinge of fear of losing, ZaZa just played. He has played well this entire season and especially this playoff series and I think we need to congratulate and thank him. He has gotten some flack and had to deal with losing the starting position to a rookie last year. In the face of having his home country at war with Russia and having his first child, this man has contributed more than he gets credit for to this team. If not for his play tonight, we do not win. Period. I feel as though we have one of the best backup centers in the league, if not THE best (Bynum is now considered a backup center but I can't think of anyone else).

LOL_Hawks Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Zaza played a hell of a game tonight. Monster game. He deserves to have his face all over Hawksquawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree tonight Za Za 18 rebounds and 12 points made the difference. Za Za is big so if he plays big he can be an asset. With that said I hope Za Za keeps playing well but our starters have got to play better. We survived tonight Hawks have new life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawksBalla Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Zaza was a Man tonight. He made himself at least an extra million dollars tonight. The country will be talking about him. Congratulations Zaza, you carried the team and solidified your status of an Atlanta cult hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronnt Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Zaza was the best man in a Hawks uniform tonight, easily. Probably the best player on the floor, period. When was the last time we could say that? 2006? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankWhite Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 There was a time last season when I would have paid out of my own pocket to send Zaza back to Georgia. He bounced back this year, but I didn't see a performance like this coming. In a playoff game with Wade, JJ, Bibby, O'Neal and Smith playing, Zaza was far and away the most important player on the floor. Just amazing.
