is the hawks scared of josh smith and marvin williams,aint no way on god earth.a coach like phil jackson r popovich rdoc river would allow marvin and josh 2 run 2 the 3 point line and stand there watchin 24 second clock run downand lookin at there guards get outrebound on the boards. marvin has the freshes legs n the league..thats all he do the whole game is run 2 the 3pt line and wait for a shot he cant hit..he and josh need an ankel brace on 2 let them know when they r 5ft from the basket by shocking them if they think about moving away.if joe johnson is on a team like the lakers r sanantonio r dallas he is a allstar starter each year.he is double team by 2 and 3 guys every game because teams that play them no they bigs dont move other than zaza r hartford 2 the basket so he can make the pass on the cut.marvin william is a 6 man he can start for any team n the nba.he is not worth a billy goat and a hill side of beans.the hawks let 6 hall a famemer get away..chris paul. lue adene.darron williams brandon roy,ben gordon.mike conley jr.they coaches g.m.billy knight said they r not nba ready…this is the worse decision makin team n the world..they had all those top 1,2 3,picks for 6 yrs.and we r still building.they drafted paul gasol,and sent him 2 memphis.they gave up jordan crawford 2 washington and next year 1rd pick and 2nd rd for kirk hinhrich.and now he is hurt.they r stupid.thats why i gave my season ticket up 5yrs ago
i have been waitin 35yrs for a basketball championship here n atlanta.guess i will keep waitin until im dead and gone..i am big al. aka t.c.fulton high class of 1979..they will never get a true center r a premier point guard..they talk about ahlectisim where ..they cant make a decent pass smith cant dribble williams is a 8th man not a starter let zaza have that spot and u will c double double at that spot each game he starts zaza,hartford,joe.jeff teague jamal crawford.joe johnson is your new small fordward.u r guaranteed 2 move pass 2nd rd and maybe the 3rd rd and get 2 our 1st championship chance just maybe,,,

Yeah, right. A backup point guard on a team that finished fifth in their conference is going to “hound” the league MVP. I want to thank you for making me laugh, a deep, long belly laugh that almost brought tears. And speaking of tears, that’s what you’ll be experiencing when the Hawks go down in four. They aren’t tough enough to stay with the Bulls. They settle for jump shots when they should be driving the lane. They argue with each other on the court and in the huddle. They have nothing like the cohesiveness of Chicago, and oh, by the way, they’ll be without their best perimeter defender in Kirk Hinrich. With Hinrich, the Hawks had a fighting chance to get a game, maybe even two. Without him, Bulls fans will be bringing their brooms.

First i would like to agree with a few of the boys up top…I would like to see him give his defense players a chance… I really dont know what to think of him not giveing Jeff a chance eveytime he get extended minutes he produces. Though i would like to see him go see the shot doctor after the season, him and Marvin. I think they can beat the Bull if he lets Teague press him the whole game..i mean full court from the time he get the ball on the inbound till he crosses half court and I mean an agressive press too. The thing is they can still use the same came plan on the Bulls they used on the Magic, stay home with everyone else when he comes in the lane lay him down and make him beat u by scoreing…He may average 34 to 38 but that would beat you alone. You can’t let anyone esle get off though.

SO let Jeff hound him the whole game, when he comes in the lane you have to be rough on him, then stay at home on your man so he has no kick outs… he gonna get tired….Labron tried to do everything last year and he ran out of gas… Rose will too

Most definitely gotta give LD some love. He initially comes off as having no idea what he’s doing but, after seeing him during the playoff interviews, I gotta say he’s fairly sharp at least in a bball sense.

Knuckleheads like “J Smoove” (how contrived) are the main reason we got blown out so many times over the past year or so. However, it is LD’s fault for not bringin the hammer down on Josh.

Regardless, Drew accomplished at least a cathartic series win that really puts last year’s debacle to bed. Let’s see what he’s got up his sleeve for the MVP… without the Hawk’s best perimeter defensive weapon, Hinrich. If he can get the Hawks to game 6 or 7 without his starting PG vs DRose, then LD will have his NBA head coach bonafides.

OKay I comend Larry on his first playoff series but he needs to use his bench a little bit more because next series they r goin to be worn out there is no way u r not useing a guys like damien wilkins or jeff teague these guys bring u defense and hustle and u need that for a team like the bulls all im sayin dnt be like mike woodson deeper your rotation and develop your players so they not just taking up space.the hawks to me can compet wit any team in the league they need jus need to play to the level they can and somebody tell josh smith to get his big behind off the perimeter he should be averaging about 12 rebounds a game just dont be another mike woodson which mike woodson was a great coach i jus wish his offense would have been better but everything good he does larry drew doesnt i wish we would have kept him for defense of perpose thats it!?
