I think this is the end of the Cavs 12 game winning streak.
I bandwagoned onto the Hawks around January last year after hearing everybody say they were a fun team to watch. They're now my favorite East team along with Miami/Knicks/Pistons.
And it doesn't hurt the Lakers HCA advantage to see the Cavs lose.
This game + Orlando @ Utah are the best games of the night.
As somebody who adopted the Hawks back in 04-05 when Joe Johnson (one of my favorite player's at the time) left Phoenix. I'm often torn between wanting to welcome new fans into the ATL fold and feeling resentment over how many bandwagoneers they picked up in the playoffs.
They were fun to watch a long time before those seven games against the C's, as you alluded to in your mention of January. Plus, you know ball Allanon. So while I'm generally pissed when I hear people talking about the Hawks, when I know they didn't give a before the playoffs last year, I'm also happy when I come across people who truly appreciate them. In short, I think you're a good enough NBA fan to be a Hawks fan Allanon... if that's not too condescending to say.
And I have a feeling they beat the Cavs tonight, if for nothing other reason than this being the second night of a b2b for the LeBron's.
If they are playing IN ATLANTA all i can tell you is that it is HARD as to win. The rockets were a hair's length away from their streak ending. Hopefully the cavs lose tonight though :P
Yes they are playing in the ATL.
And the cavs are getting hawked as of the half time.
The Cavs are already due for a loss so this will be it.
Yep Ferry needs to find another capable scoring big-man.
You are down by more the 10 points and you start doing stupid things like showing the reffs.
Real nice Lebron.
Great D played to finish out the 3rd Q. Brought us back into the game.
These comentators are freaking annoying.
Good lord, J-Smoove is awesome!!!![]()
That's Nique. It was Steve Smith until this year and he was great; great enough to bolt to NBA TV.
Good win for ATL
Boobie would have hit them
Good game by the Hawks.
Damn Lebron looks pissed, he about to choke someone.
I didn't like how Lebron was been so y on this game.
This loss will put the Cavs back in their place.
Wally 0-5 from the field tonight
So new streak starts @ T Wolves. A big 4 day break will get thier heads in place.
See what happens when you nmake reasonable, educated predictions.
Try it more often.
GO HAWKS!
They lost by 5 without 2 key players on the 5th night of a. 4 in 5 if you think this kills the season you know absolutly nothing about NBA hoops
Can't wait to see Wednesday's game @ ATL vs Boston.
