Great game tonight.  Had to tough it out, but we did.

We got the home opener on Monday vs Detroit.  Hopefully no slip-ups against them.

 

Then we go in to the BELLY OF THE BEAST on Wednesday and Friday.

 

Statement game, battle of the undefeated's (barring a loss on Monday)

Nathan Knight!!!!  WOW!

He might get a SportCenter top 10 for that alley oop dunk.

Plus he's trending on Twitter for the past hour.

Congrats to the team for the effort. Great games by Hunter, Huerter, Knight and Trae kept us in the game on a night where Cam and Bogi played really bad.  We are better team than them and it showed today. Whenever Capela, Okongwu, Gallo, Rondo and Dunn are back we should be really good. We have enough players to play when we are cold.

I am a little worried with Collins, he is not at the level he was last year. Only 2 games, get in shape John. 

And lastly I know Trae was the hero and won the game but someone needs to teach him to stop taking those bad shots and cut those stupid Turnovers. He needs that to take Atlanta to next level. And I am asking that because I know he can do it, you need to demand results to people according to his capabilities, he can do that.

Trae had 2 turnovers to nine assists. He had one bad one.

Great games from Kev and Dre, and Trae did a great job getting to the line on a night when his three ball wasn't falling.

Ouch, that's going to be a tough back to back. Hopefully we can split, they looking like public enemy #1 in the East.

That's a back to back . . with us staying in Brooklyn for both games.

[RedDawg#8]

And guess what, this was a "bad" game by a lot of our guys standards.

We had the real "grit and grind" tonight.

Bogi Nights!

Bogdan ended the 1st half at -15, but finished at +0. His help on the boards helped the short-winged Hawks out-rebound yet another opponent.

We can't prop up Bogi anymore after this game.  Sure he is a good rebounder but he was advertised as an good shooter and playmaker but he is below average with both..Mistake!

I love how he plays exactly like his college highlight tape. That shows he has confidence in his game at this level.

We needed this kind of game. A tough it out game when shots weren't always falling and some guys out of sync. That's when we nerd others to pick up the slack.

[Marvin24Williams]

Hopefully they nab a win in Detroit as well. Those 2 Brooklyn games are going to be tough.

Good job on Brooks. 

[HawkingAwesome]

oo nathan knight kinda got a stroke huh

[marco102]

People say Trae can't be the number one option in a playoffs series. Not true at all. Your number one needs to be able to get to the line and make them when they are struggling. I'm starting to think Traes second best skill is drawing fouls.

Great game Kevin and Hunter.  The defense was much better. We started 2-0 last year. Let's make it three. 

I'm more excited about this win than Chicago. This team only made 2 mistakes down the stretch and executed on the defensive end to get this win!

Omg can't forget Nathan Knight great game young man!!!

At least get to 3-0. Getting one win against the Nets will be gravy.

KD and Kyrie are brutal covers. They have great depth too with Lavert, Dinwiddie, Allen, Harris.

[JayBirdHawk]

Lol.

 

 

[HawkingAwesome]

do we post videos in here?

[Dnice]

Coach  is greedy tonight..

[bleachkit]

If Bogi got 72 million, why wont Kevin?

[JayBirdHawk]

 

Love it!
