Kirk Hinrich

[ATLSmith]

Just an observation, but Kirk uses a lot of bounce passes. Behind the back, through the legs, with the off arm out to the side. Seems like his favorited target is Horford.

There's one play in particular where Kirk drives on his man and, if the opposing teams center comes over to help, Kirk bounces the ball back to Horford for the wide open jump shot.

Old school and efficient, less chance for the defender to disrupt while allowing the big man to catch how he likes. It's a timing and feel thing, which shows he is getting more comfortable with each practice.

Jamal is not a PG!!!!

Who knew fundamentals could work?

Josh Smith should take note. Every time he throws a one-handed pass, I die a little inside.

Despite some of the stupid passes he attempts, Josh S. is one of our better passers.

Captain Kirk just gets better and better the more he plays with the Hawks.

If he can't score and score a lot, Crawford is mostly useless. He's very capable of scoring

but lately he's been in a terrible shooting slump.. Needs to just relax. A lot of it is mental.

Either Captain Kirk or Jeff T. should be at PG all the time with JJ being the 3rd choice, not Crawford.

Agreed. Most underrated pass.

I completely agree that he's getting better as well as he learns to read the players and the plays. I also get the impression that he feels that he isn't playing to his potential. If you watch him when he walks back to the bench he's often shaking his head (apparently at himself) for not doing something right or as well as it he can.

Bibby used to be great with the bounce pass to Horford on the pick and pop. I wish Hinrich would do more of that.
