TRACEMAN-Bibby did have a good gm last night, OFFENSIVELY, but so did the man he was suppose to have been guarding, rookie PG TDouglas, who scored a career high 23pts. And please, Woody’s so called system is nothing like LBrowns, or anyone elses. The system LBrown had in Detroit used back picks and baseline picks, and you’d see RHamilton or CBillups running the baseline and coming off those picks for open jumpers or drives to the basket.

In your wildest dreams and imagination you can’t say you’ve seen anything like that run by the Hawks since Woodson’s been the HC. If he installed that system for Marvin, or something simular, he’d be very productive and it would eliminate his OFF inconsistency. If, at this point, Woodson doesn’t trust the OFF capabilites of his players enough to run his system, he needs another system. Preferably one that better suits the OFF talents of his players. Either that or another HC.

Don’t get me twisted, I am not advocating for Jeff Teague to start instead of Bibby. I am not an advocate for Jamal Crawford to start instead of Marvin. It wouldn’t make sense to keep the starting five together and then break them up during the season. In my opinion the starting lineup is set, I don’t disagree with the starting lineup. I am however against a 6-8 man rotation when you have depth on your bench.

I am concerned with another first round pick being wasted. I was disturbed by what happened to Acie Law IV, who on this blog can be certain Acie deserved to be traded? I can’t cause I barely saw him on the court. And when I did I don’t really remember him being so terrible. And now Jeff Teague is being subjected to sitting between the coaches like some little kid who just got in trouble. I refuse to sit idly back and not speak on something that’s bothering me.

The key word is “starters”. Your players who start the game and are supposed to be your best players. The other word is “reserves”. You know players who are supposed to relieve the starters, may not be as good but can contribute nevertheless while the starters rest up.

Come on Woodson supporters, pay attention. Most on the blog are not discrediting the wins. It’s the way he goes about winning. There has to be a more efficient way to get wins using all of your resources. One being the most glaring one: THE RESERVES!

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE HAWKS’ PROGRESS AND NOT HATE!

I know its only 8 games, but what I’ve seen from Woody is the same Woody I saw last year, and the year before, and the year before. Sure, there are brief moments when things look better, but once adversity sets in, he goes back to the old Woody. I dont think Woody will change much.

I look for the Hawks to win 50-54 games, and lose in the 2nd round again. I think that will be enough for Sund to give him a new contract.
