So much dribbling out of Joe. Wide open dude in the lane too.

Marvin finally made a shot. (He still needs to knock down them open 3 point attempts). And then Marvin gets his shot blocked.
By the way, Jon Barry was talking about the Hawks will be worn down at the end of the season, because of the way Woody splits his minutes up. And I think Jon Barry is right.

Marvin is leading the Hawks in points and rebounds. But two people don’t mention him til he gets a shot blocked. Say it loud now – HATERS.

LOL @ Mike Woodson. Before the season started he said NOBODY and I mean nobody would average more than 36 minutes a game this season. Ha! Yeah right….

Slope first qtr from the Hawks. I like what Mark Jackson said about Teague. Put the ball in the young fella hands, tell him to do what he been doing to get to the league and live with the results.

The Hawks are not gonna get many National TV games this year. The Crowd is terrible and I know Stern is hating this. I’ve seen more people at church on thursdays.

Speaking of Teague did anybody hear Mark Jackson when he said if Teague got at least 20 minutes a game, he would be a candidate for rookie of the year. both Mark and jon said that he should get more minutes. Even ESPN is realizing what us fans have been saying all along: Give Teague more minutes Woody!

BONE I’ve been to a couple of Hawks games and the reason there are few ppl is because of the traffic. Trust me after halftime the arena will be filled to at least 85% capacity. This is Atlanta, we have the 2nd worst traffic in the country

Ken S,
I dont think Woody will give Teague any consistent minutes (unless there is injury).
I like the effort from our second unit. The bad thing is come the next game, they wont get much burn.
Nice block by Teague. Can Bibby even run back in time to commit the foul? lol

Thats why Teague needs to get more mins. Show em Teague.

block by teague remarkable. salmon is 6-6; teague is 6-2. overall, he’s losing hinrich on defense, though.

good to see coach playing Teague… must be wanting to implement him against the speed of the upcoming guards on the schedule…

Both Crawford and JJ are shooting 29% from 3 for the season. Thats unacceptable. Because we know they will shoot a lot of them…
Hawks need to keep driving the ball.

Bibby decides to put his hand in the defenders face after the ball is pretty much in the rim…

We know, O’Brien. You think that the 3-point shot should be outlawed and that guards should be limited to 1 shot each per game.
