And again we let a team off of the ropes. I still like the way we're playing though.

Yeah, I usually hate watching Hawks games on League Pass b.c you have to listen to the other teams announcers. But this guys are really good, knowledgeable, and don't bash the other team. They've had a lot of good things to say about our players.


If you didn't know they were Nets guys you'd think they were with the Hawks going by tonight. "Eat that Sean Williams." :rofl:

This is the best half of the year by far....I bet half of NBA TV's top 10 plays will come from this game.

The Hawks get nervous playing in front of big crowds.

Sorry- it was just sitting there.

Good half especially on offense. We could be up more but if we maintain our pace I think we'll be okay.

On another note, it looks like Woody got fed up with JJ and benched him at the end of that half. We need JJ so badly to play the way he is capable. I hope that sent a message.

Why do we allow so many wide open threes?


It seems like whenever the Hawks miss an easy shot or make a turnover the other team hits a 3.

I am definitely starting to worry about JJ. We don't have many shooters and we need him to hit his shots.

smith is definitely starting to get it. Like i said in the game thread last night now when he drives and gets cut off he doesn't throw up a crap shot. Instead he keeps his pivot foot and gets under control and that makes a big difference.

smith is basically carrying the Hawks now. This lead should be a lot bigger though.

Marc Jackson was doing so well and then he says the Nets are better than the Hawks.

Shelden really p's me off. Gets the rebound just taken away from him by scrawny Boone, then gets his shot blocked by Kidd.

Josh Smith is the only one that wants to play...some one else has to step up.

Return to Atlanta Hawks
