Rod – Here’s some of what I see wrong with the Hawks
LD – Terrible Coach this season. Worst I have ever seen in any sport anywhere. He’s coming alive in the playoffs, and for that I’m glad. Sat Teague way too long.
JJ – Hurt, lost his outside shot. Didn’t play like a max player. But he’s come alive in the playoffs also.
Josh – Incredible talent, but schizo on the BB floor. Whines and complains too much, and let’s calls get into his head. Shoots J’s way to much, which is not his game
Al – Needs to man up and be a C. Work out like Noah. Learn the low post. Get better handles.
Kirk – Gettin’ old. Lost a step. Finally hitting the midrange however.
Marvin – Just a terrible basketball player
ZaZa – Inconsistent – Short arms, can’t rebound usually for a big. No shot blocker. Hands of Stone. No low post game.
Jamal – Never saw a shot he didn’t like. No D
I criticize them all. Said Josh made plays last night I’ve never seen any player make ever. But i guess your love for Josh is so strong you don’t read that part and you just gotta protect Josh.

Yeah JeJe … I like the juicy stuff!
Everybody’s like, “What’s up with Pau?
He. Looks like his mind is somewhere else?”
The Natl. Media was asking the same questions about
Bron-Bron last series. The answer is always, allegedly – the same.

“Bibby is sucking on Defence as usual. It’s so bad that Wade and Lebron couldn’t even cover for his mistakes LOL.”
Good. I despise that entire team. Even D.Wade
LOL @ Bosh nervous about a basketball game

KevinM,
The Hawks were not “lucky” to get rid of Bibby. They traded away last year’s first round pick (who could develop into a poor man’s Jamal) and next year’s first round pick (#18). And the Hawks also picked up an additional $2 mil in salary for the 2011-2012 season.

What I’m loving with Hawks series is the fact the Teaguer gets to go head to head with MVP Rose, and he is holding his own. Teague is gonna learn a lot from playing Rose, in fact I think he is learning already, if you look at the two Rose-like drives he had in that 4th quarter. I think he has what it takes to be almost as good as Derreck Rose.
Imagine it had to take a player going down for us to find that out.

Doing the Butt!
KevinM … Yeah man, old boy got apple bottoms for real.
If he drop it to the ground, I wonder if he can bring it back up?
Marvin got a butt like Rick Mahorn but his game is like Fog Horn.
What a waste of human basketball tissue.

Kobe’s wife needs to get on “Basketball Wives” so we can all get the dirt.
Why do they call it that, anyway? Most of those women are ex-basketball wives, and some are just girlfriends.

Hinrich/Drew Bledsoe is out, and Teague/Tom Brady has risen up to the challenge in the face of hideous talent evaluators and coaches.

The biggest problem with Marvin was said by Marvin himself. Marvin said he doesn’t WATCH basketball. How can you play basketball for a living and not watch it? That means you don’t like basketball. Marvin never does anything to improve his game each summer. He improved the 3, but seems to have lost it again. Summertime, Marvin is in Carolina studying for his degree.
Jamal said he watches all the games, staying up late to catch the west coast games. Now, that is somebody who LOVES basketball, and you see it on the court.
These series, Marvin should not be playing steady minutes. Damien needs to get most of his time. I wonder why Drew is so blind to see this? Just like he and Woody were blind by starting Bibby over Teague, despite Bibby’s detereorating skills.

I can’t stand Kobe Bryant. I have never heard of a more arrogant person, I guess he rubbed off on his wife. She was an 18 year old child, before he swooped her off the heap in Puerto Rico.
I can’t imagine anyone not getting alone with Karl Malone’s wife. She is a grown woman, not a child. She has to be what 45 years or something? I know it was a while ago, but damn! LOL!
Kobe didn’t even invite his own parents and grand parents to his wedding.
Just rude, because they advised him to take his time and get a
pre-nuptual. Which is excellent advice. Tiger Woods Father advised him not to get married either, but, they don’t listen.
Oh well! Yeah, Pau was pissed at Kobe and Vanessa and it came into the locker room. Hard to play with a broken heart.
These basketball wives should already know these skeezers are gonna be hustling their advanced services and positional techniques. All Mrs. Gasol gotta do is either compete or check them ATM cash with drawls,
to get the whole story.
Personally, if it were me? I would pack my husbands overnight bag and make sure I throw a case of XS – Ribbed Trojans in there. Just in case, one try to slip off. Tell your man to double up on the long nights.
Keep a case on hand for home use too … You never know.
Tell your husband, no slip no dip – no loot, no knocking boots!

OB, we were lucky to be able to rid ourselves of him because this ownership group would have never eaten that money. They went for something in return, and this is the best they could do.
Had Bibby remained, Jeff Teague would be fishing right now.

In fairness to Marvin, he really isn’t – that bad.
He’s real bad.
Seriously though, Marvin played some good defense last night.
He does have his cameo moments. And, he is human so, I don’t think its ok to hurt his feelings. I know he has money and he can get therapy, but I don’t want to be responsible for making him cry.
I never want to be a cyber-bully. Maybe a blog-bully … But never a cyber-bully. We love you as a person Marvin, we just don’t think much of your basketball game.

Lame!
Poor Rondo is useless out there. They should sit him down, where is littlt Nate? They could sure use some ‘Donkey’ energy right about now.
It really is sad to see an old baller past his prime. Just sad.
Speaking of, The Lakers and Celtics.

@ drmaryb (*_-) On Kobe:
I think it is Gasol who should be taking all the hits for his lame ass performance against DAL essentially eliminating the buffer against a Miami Heat championship. How he played is lame-Marvin William like, if that happened to KG or Bosh, we would be asking for blood. How unprofessional? Instead talk radio is focusing on Kobe’s wife’s’ actions. Its all about what happened on the court.

“Not to bright. Your smarter than this Rod.”
LOL, when you diss somebody for lacking smarts, It would be a good idea to make sure you aren’t saying something that shows a “lack of smarts”
As in: “Too” and “You’re”
