TheTruth Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Great win, ESPECIALLY since Orlando lost...again. We have a few more tough games ahead...we better come prepared to play. We have outrebounded our opponents in the last two games and have won both. Let's hope both trends continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mrhonline Posted January 9, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 KG is their best player, kyle. But a win tonight is extra nice because it's against one of the top 4 AND Orlando lost again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleactive Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 all the negativity I was reading these last couple of weeks was one of the main reasons I was reluctant in getting involved in a forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Atlantaholic Posted January 9, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 (edited) If Kg can't stay healthy that is not our problem... it is theirs. We beat them twice this year, and I seriously don't see how Boston can beat us if we come to play. We are on a different level athletically. People don't understand how talented this team is. I've seen trade Smoove for Kaman and I swear to God we would be worse off. People say Smoove doesn't rebound but he averages THE EXACT same amount of rebounds per 36 than Kaman. He is a much better passer, doesn't turn the ball over as much, shoots a better percentage, and can lead a fast break and change the game with his blocks... When Horf and Smoove get the touches and are focused there is no more disruptive tandem in the entire NBA. That is the truth... And they are just getting started in their development.

TheNorthCydeRises Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 It is what it is. Go through a little adversity, and some in the fan base will always panic. Like the team hasn't shown them enough that they're actually good. Just because this team loses focus against bad teams sometimes, doesn't mean that they're not good. Orlando has lost a little focus lately, but they're still good. Same with us. Division showdown tomorrow night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruth Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Yeah, if we win tomorrow, we will have the 3rd seed. Imagine that. We don't play well on back-to-backs, but tomorrow is a great time to reverse the trend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedDawg#8 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 HUGE WIN! but all the haters are going to say it wasn't legit 'cause no KG. And should be no VC tomorrow night, so hopefully we can pick up another big W. True, but one thing many people including myself said during this offseason was that Boston is going to have to deal with injuries because of age, and its coming true, the same was said about VC and the Magic. The youth advantage is what will help us during the regular season to stock extra wins as the older stars in the league break down often. These teams decided to build around 30+ up's to win, we decided to build around youth, they have to deal with older, slower, injury prone bodies like we have to deal with inconsistent play and decision making. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is pretty much it in a nutshell. And from that perspective it would point to Boston being the weakest link of the big three. Clevalnd has under 30 stars in Lebron and Mo and Orlando is not that old with Lewis, Howard and a healthy Jameer. But Bostons core three is old; with only Rondo and Perk being under 30.

DJlaysitup Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 It is what it is. Go through a little adversity, and some in the fan base will always panic. .... I call B/S north...we choked the 1st game against CLE at home..choked...then there was the "Birthday Game"...nobody panicked. The NYK game showed that we need a backup PG since Nate Robinson wasn't exactly blowing other teams out of the gymn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well said. The bad decision making can really drive us nuts at times but hopefully we are the healthiest of top 4 in the East come playoffs. Last year Bibby, Horford, and Marvin were really hurting in the 2nd round. The Hawks can jump up to 3rd in the East tonight and pass the Magic for 1st in the South Division. :angel19: Edited January 9, 2010 by coachx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endy9 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 The Hawks rebound doesn't surprise me. What surprises me is Orlando losing 4 in a row so we are only 1/2 game back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
