Wally Sczerbiak & Shareef Abdul-Rahim ain’t no part of Nique’s vocabulary either…

Even Nique thinks seven players in the rotation is too few.
Get Teague in the game, damn.

Thad Young is a FA this summer and I would welcome him with open arms to the Hawks. Nice 3/4 guy off the bench to play behind Josh and Marvin…

Zaza has done a lot of showing on screens today, but he has also done an unusually good job of recovering.

Go Marvin!

Good Foul #2 on Joe, he was battling Thaddeus off the boards.

Smoove’s career high is 38, set against Milwaukee in the ‘07-’08 season. He has 26 through 3 quarters in this one.
Not a great close to that quarter, but the Hawks get lucky with the Sixers missing a few makeable shots.

drmaryb..
yep.. real sisqo’esque .. fru-gayzy if u ask me.
dude must realize thats going to follow him forever. instead of getting offended, take the Vick approach. album drop or not, every interview you get there will be questions, how you handle it will go a long way in the almighty American court of public opinion. personally i thought it was funny. grown man throwing tantrums. only thing i didnt like was him getting all snazzy with another of my favorite older lady crushes.. Miss Robin Roberts..
he better hope he didnt violate.. thats if ABC decides to press charges..

“I’d trade eveyone on the roster for Blake Griffin…”

Marvin figures he can play hard once every 12 games. And Hawks management accepts that….

If both teams score 26 pts in the fourth?
My score prediction comes true:
Atlanta 106
Philly 100
Score is:
Atl 80
Phil 74

What happens if the jump shots stop falling in the fourth quarter? Will it be another brick laying exhibition?

Did the Hawks have a 11pt lead before Jamal came in the game?

Yes, he knows that it’s the place where Teague sits.

The hawks are back baby!!! After that bulls game—they are refocused and ready for a deep playoff run! Larry Drew made the adjustments needed and now they are back on track!!!

Wher is “Boss Hog”? Is he having a problem with his ankle and lower back still. Something is off, he has been invisible all month long.
Must be have girl friend issues or something. If so, bump that girl!

Someone, I think northcyde said earlier today or yesterday that good defense at the right time of the game is the best offense. This is one of those times. This is prime time to bring Teagues fresh quick legs off the bench.

Yeah, that’s exactly what the Hawks need out of the timeout. Stop and pops by Jamal.

The hawks have scored 3 points the last 5 minutes of game play . Everyone that was making them went cold and now they are hesitant .

No Smoove on the floor during this run. But yeah, his defense is way overrated.

Louis Willams and Jody Meeks are both second round picks.
Hawks have 2 second round picks in this draft. Any chance we find a player who will develop?

Guess LD doesn’t like the defense and driving to the basket by JT. It’s a shame…as i watch another jump shot.

Now would be a good time to point out that the Hawks drafted Salim Stoudamire over Lou Williams. And Monta Ellis for that matter.
