Not long ago we ALL railed against the 'ALL BENCH LINEUP'...... Now, I can't get enough of it.

Stat-O-The-Night....John Collins....ZERO fouls.

Nice.

 

 

Nique is such a good ambassador for this team. I'm so happy he is involved with the Team at this level.

[JayBirdHawk]

...Funny man Jollins. He probably has plans to head to a warm city during the break.

Dang.  Sorry I missed this game.  Looked like a block party.  

Also, if Bogi returns to form, we are dangerous.

Usually, I'm all for getting as many Hawks to All Star weekend as possible, but Collins' last crack at the Slam Dunk contest wasn't exactly his finest hour. No reason to encourage a repeat of that event.

Is there a way to get game highlights with the Seeeees broadcast?  Curious to hear what the Scalabrine guy had to say.

Technically he was even more disruptive than that but that's the official credit.  K'von had a very good all around game.  There was one play where he boxed out Horford for a teammate to get a board and I wept a smidge.

 

Huerter was Alex Caruso and Trae was Avery Bradley on defense last night.

Oh, btw, we won in these yellows!  #turnyourbadluck2good

Run it back tomorrow. We got the city ’s on and they got the a$$ ociation ones.

Did they ever say why Al didn't return to the game?  Was it actually diarrhea, as Hal theorized?

Also, am I allowed to ask or do I need to make a special thread about it so somebody doesn't get all mad about me scapegoating his favorite player?

I'm just kidding, supes ... kinda.

Here's my question about last night's game.

It was obvious (especially in the 3rd) that there was no way that Boston could stop JC in the post. 

Why didn't we keep feeding JC?

I'm old school so maybe this is different now... but it used to be that you ran a play until the other team stopped it and then you did something else.   Well, JC could post up Back to the Basket.. JC could face up... and Boston was taking it all.

JC had himself a 3rd quarter.

That Lob from Trae was a thing of Beauty!!!

I was happy to see JC getting off but I was mad at the fact that Boston came back.  Hell, it's almost like JC scored all of our points that qtr. (Close to it). 

I just want to see us develop that killer instinct that when we have a team down and we've found their weakness, we keep hitting them until the game is out of reach for them.   I want to see a team like Boston just give up in the 3rd.

Our defense in that 3rd was putrid plus everything was a foul for Boston, they about 8 freethrows.

Yeah because we have Bogi instead of TLC, and Okongwu instead of Dieng....................... lol

I definitely agree.   The refs helped Boston get back in the game like Tim Donaghy was back.

10th spot Hawks..
