Admin Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Story of the game is poor shooting by Teague and Horford. Its killed us. Hope they can turn it around. Story of the game is we aren't playing defense and the Pacers are getting a lot of those tough shots and rim rollers to go in. Our offense is not too bad, although not great. But our defense is very poor. With the Pacers shooting so well we're not getting out in transition off of rebounds and we aren't getting any 3pt attempts.

The game is still well within reach of winning with plenty of time left. Let's try getting behind the team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teague and Horrors don't shoot this poorly as often. Josh's foul trouble is the bigger story than D as the D is poorer whenhe is out. Look no further than the tear the Pacers went on after Josh went out with 3 fouls. Check the game transcripts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benhillboy Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Nothing surprising. It's only natural for playoff teams with the 3rd and 5th lowest payrolls in the league to blow each other out on home floors. Run em out of Phillips and wish on a lucky star in Game 7. Let's Go.

Gray Mule Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hawks hit on 33% of their shots & 3/14 from the three. Defense died, as they went over 100 against us. Terrible, blowout loss. If we can't shoot or play defense, we're doomed. Tonight, a perfect example. Oh well. We've got a chance to win one more game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJlaysitup Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) Hawks hit on 33% of their shots & 3/14 from the three. Defense died, as they went over 100 against us. Terrible, blowout loss. If we can't shoot or play defense, we're doomed. Tonight, a perfect example. Oh well. We've got a chance to win one more game. Agreed G-M...33% is UnSat. Normally I would complain that we didn't go to AL enough - but AL was having a bad night - then Smoove was in foul trouble - double whammy. We played well through 3/4ths of the first half - were only down 7 at halftime - then basically fell apart. Alas. But...to be fair...we technically have a chance to win two more games. Heck, it could happen. Take care of business at home Friday night - then the pressure reverts to them a bit. If it's 3-3 at Indy and we lose - oh well - that's not a terrible outcome for a Hawks team that has had to deal with injuries, playing against a higher rated team anyways. If we keep it close in game seven and some shots fall for us late - who knows? P.S. - I would half expect us to give in some at home Friday night and lose in six...but I think the Indy dirty tactics may just have p!ssed our guys off enough to want to beat the Pacers out of spite.

Admin Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 And we are shooting like 30 something %. Lol. That's pretty bad. Not sure what game you are watching. What game was I watching? How about the one where the Pacers, one of the worst offensive teams in basketball, put up 106 points on us and that's with them taking it easy late in the game. Going into the 4th quarter we had 67 points and that's about where most teams are at going into the 4th quarter in the playoffs. The problem is that the Pacers already had 81 points so yeah I'd say defense was a much bigger problem than the offense that was slightly below average in points (at that point). Our 16 point 4th quarter made it look worse than it was offensively and the lack of stops on defense and defensive rebounding kept us from getting out in transition (10 fast break points) for easy layups / dunks and open 3pt attempts (13 total attempts in the game).
