Let’s get pumped, folks. Playoffs start in less than 3 days and we have home-court advantage.

Think about it folks. 47 wins and home court advantage in a greatly improved Eastern Conference. I always will have my issues with Woody and everyone had doubts about JJ being able to lead us this far. We obviously are not going to make it deep into the playoffs unless we really pull it together like we never have before, but this team is truly in an amazing place considering where we came from. I know lots of people have already said stuff to that effect, but it’s worth saying it again – there’s no arguing with success.

Let’s bask in the glow for the next couple days, and then get raucous for the series against the Heat.

Wheres Green Eggs and Ham Sam. Must be getting home late from the Woody Woodpecker coach of the year pep rally. I heard it was a real small crowd.

Yall have got to be joking about putting Broke Leg Mountain Claxton in the playoff rotation over Acie. Acie could come through if hes healthy. Claxton cant even run out of the tunnel without getting winded. Might need a big in the playoffs too for sure, but Morris aint it. Whats all this noise about Sund and a limited budget. What limited budget. They sure didnt have a problem paying Mike No Defense Bibby FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS but they want to skimp on the bench. Aint nobody broke they just dont want to spend the money and who can blame them when they let Woodpecker do whatever he wants to do. Dont pay much extra for people he wont play. Overpay for who he will OVERPLAY. That would be Bibby. Keep letting the coach run the franchise and he will run it into the ground like he does the guys he will play. Sure hope them boys ate all the Wheaties they could find cause they going to need them in the playoffs. Watch for the seven man rotation with a little bit of the eighth man being zaza.

All the way through solo(Top 9) is pretty much gaurenteed. They’ll get PT in the playoffs.Anyone else will be situational.

Honestly, I love Acie but he plays timid at times, I think we should go with Speedy, Mario and Randolph for the last three spots.

Joe, Mike, Marvin, Josh, Al, Flip, Mo, Zaza, Solo, Mario(or Speedy or Acie), Randolph(we might need an extra Big)

Truth-Serum, Zaza has been a scrub for many games out of his Hawks career, but as limited as he is talent-wise, he has stepped it up this year with his defense and hustle. He’s not a starting-quality NBA center, but he has made a positive impact more often than not this year with his presence.

Nothin’ like watching our bench play a full game and JJ and the guys in street clothes resting up. 2 years, back to back, of NBA basketball in Atlanta. Which of our other sports has been able to do that for us lately???

I really like Hunter. I hope we bring him back next year and develop the kid. He could end up being a nice role player for us down the road…I wonder who will make the playoff roster and who will be left off.
