Moderators lethalweapon3 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Moderators Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Good time to remind folks to make the Game Threads about the games and the team, and not about the posters. Whether some posters crave that attention or not, there's no obligation to give it to them. ~lw3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETSET Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 82 games. 16 in a row wins. 30-32 wins. Terrible effort?? What are you lookinkg for dude? Gawd.... A win is a win but it was pretty bad effort at times. There were several times where Minny players were found wide open under the basket for easy layups. That doesn't happen when the boys are trying. It is good to know that we can win by double digits while toying with teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators lethalweapon3 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Moderators Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 I liked Flip's maneuver to go really big (starting Young-Dieng-Pek in the frontcourt), but not because of the rebounding advantage that we know by now Bud secretly doesn't give a, ummm, Flip about (11 O-Rebs for the Wolves, but just two in the second half). Going big helped Minnesota force Atlanta to decide whether to put DMC (and Thabo) on either Thad or Wiggins. By the Hawks choosing to focus Carroll on Wiggins (5-for-11 FGs), it helped Young have a great offensive game (11-for-14 2FGs, 4 O-Rebs) and it kept Korver on ice with foul trouble until the fourth quarter. Antić and Thabo's struggles at the line (1-for-6 FTs) helped keep the Wolves within howling distance. Sap's 4 steals and 6 assists (one turnover) today were huge. Minnesota also helped themselves by keeping the TOs down, too, although their 24-13 assist-TO ratio was no match for the Hawks' 30-10. ~lw3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) 82 games. 16 in a row wins. 30-32 wins. Terrible effort?? What are you lookinkg for dude? Gawd.... Both Mo Williams and Young went off and they outworked the Hawks in the 2nd half. Minny is like 4-18 on the road. Terrible defensive effort. But it's a win. These things happen. GSW is barely up on Boston by 5. But the defensive effort was not great. Edited January 26, 2015 by Hotlanta1981 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enrique Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 If anyone is getting ready for our game with the OKC/CLE game, JVG just had Teague, Horf, Sap and Korver as his all star reserves. I know we are all excited to have the Hawks get some respect via the AS game. I agree with having them all on as AS. But I also would love to get those men REST!!!! Come playoff time we will hopefully be fresh...seeing how Coach Bud is trying to keep minutes reasonable for our starting 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Mule Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Just finished watching replay. This Minnesota team are just a player or two from being very good. They have missed a lot of man hours already with injuries (We've been there) and should have a good lottery pick coming. Dang, we missed a bucket full of free throws. That made it closer. Setting Atlanta Pro sports record for most wins ever! Wow! If we had to have a bad game, which we did, this was the perfect time. Close game and all those missed free throws spell our doom. GO ATL TEAM !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) ~lw3 Did anyone else notice Thabo's 2 (I think) 3 pointers tonight had much better fluidity to them?In previous games, his stroke is a bit hesitant and seems to take a bit of time to launch. Tonight it seemed like he didnt hesitate and it took half the time to release as it usual does. I think the staff has been working with him on it. I loved it.

Premium Member Diesel Posted January 26, 2015 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Near the end, I was concerned about Thad Youngs scoring? This guy was out working us underneath. However, Teague-time is when Putemonskates becomes thecloser. I think we have the possibility of straying from our offense. Especially when Dennis is in the game, but the first team always goes back to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Got to see Theo Ratliff at the game, that brought a hearty smile to my face. Also, Rick Sund still patrols the sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 The only thing that annoyed me was that they gave up 100 points. They were on a 8 game streak holding opponents to under 100 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
