Pre-season Game #3 Spurs vs Hawks

[Guest]

 

Starters: Teague, Korver, Bazemore, Millsap and Horford

Thabo Sefolosha will play but he is "limited" according to Mike Budenholzer

[JETSET]

Ecstatic to see Thabo back in the lineup.  No Aldridge or Diaw for SAS tonight so it would be nice if we could actually beat these guys for once.

I like the white uniforms

Edy definitely will benefit from time in the dleague

Edy's main issue is learning to defend without fouling.

Edy's main issue is learning to defend without fouling.

He is a project ... One that can really payoff in the future but he has issues with offense as well.  He needs a lot of work and help and he is an example of how the dleague can help a guy grow.

I was impressed with Edy's ability to handle that pass from Teague when he was crashing to the rim.  A lot of bigs fumble that pass out of bounds.  Kid needs some work but there is definitely something there.

 

What a play from Splitter!  Big block with a fullcourt pass for the layup.

Bud played some interesting line ups:

Saw a lot of Edy and Al then Splitter and Millsap.

Jeff looked great again. Dude is ready for the season

 

Jeff and Dennis have been the 2 most impressive Hawks to me this preseason

I wonder why the moose hasn't played

Edy does have nice hands though.  He can catch bullet passes which is extremely important for a big

Especially when you have his size.  Catch a pass anywhere near the rim and it's going in two hand style.

Jeff looks like a potential top 10 NBA player. Horford looks amazing as usual. Dennis looks great. Edy is growing and learning. Sap is a baller. I like THJr aggressiveness, needs to be a little more consistent on D. This should be a better team than last year.

Gotta love Pop's sly smile at Bud after the whistle.  Enjoyed the high energy throughout.  How do people watch "Empire" when my Hawks is on?  (or any time?)

I watched the Hawks all the way till Empire came on, changed it to Empire and then went back to the Hawks when it was over.

I wonder why the moose hasn't played

It is puzzling when 17 guys see the floor, -8 Molly Mike among them, but he doesn't.  I have high hopes for him this year, no time for him to be f&@kin around and disappointing Bud in any way.  After his reluctance to play Moose at questionable times in the playoffs, it's safe to say he treats Moose in his own special way.

Edy looked kinda lost in the first half but much better in the second.

He has a lot of room to grow, talent wise, but the guy is BIG!

Finally, Korver got that hot hand!  He, and the Hawks, needed that.

Lots and lots of players still here and used most of them.  No Moose.

Thabo looked good back out there, didn't he.  All in all, good to watch

Hawk basketball live and see all the different players.  Edy set up and

Dennis came behind him and buried a three.  No one could get around

Edy and get close to Dennis.  Amazing.
