Atlanta Hawks (12-5) vs. Miami Heat (13-5), 7:30 PM EST

[bagelred]

Atlanta Hawks are the most ignored team in the league. :oldlol: They are 12-5 and everyone ignores them.

I said at the beginning of the season, I thought Hawks could end up a Top 4 team.....and here we are. :eek:

Of course, I also predicted Nuggets would be a Top 2 team....so....there's that. :ohwell: .......

[All Net]

No Haslem-Flu.

[fsvr54]

Winner is 1st in the division

[HEAT111]

Heat by 15.

[Zodiac]

Time to watch Mario Chalmers shit himself trying to defend Teague

[derb2k2]

Heat will get up for this I'm sure. Hawks are contenders in the East.:cheers:

[DuMa]

Rashard Lewis vs Al Horford will be a murder. bloodbath. rape. surgical

[Zodiac]

You're forgetting about Chalmers/Cole on Teague, all Jeff did last time was drop 20 Pts and 11 Dimes

[AlonzoGOAT]

Haslem being out means more minutes for joel which I would rather have in the starting line up. Haslem = poor man joel on defense. The Warden will rape.

what kind of egotistical ass makes a game thread primarily about them? :facepalm

except that Shard is starting instead.

[Mr. Incredible]

A Heat hater, of course.

[Just2McFly]

A Heat hater, of course.
Bagelred keeps making shitty ass threads with no info, is it that hard to make it look nice? Put some starting lineups? God damn:facepalm

[Zodiac]

Nice hold on the opening possession by Bosh

[Just2McFly]

If the hawks arent going to consistently feed Smith and Horford in the post they are going to lose.

[che guevara]

That's the first time this season I've seen Lebron make that baseline fadeaway out of the post. Odd, considering it was his go-to post move last season.

[Zodiac]

getting the Heat scrubs in foul trouble already lol. Make the mis-match that much greater

[AlonzoGOAT]

That's the first time this season I've seen Lebron make that baseline fadeaway out of the post. Odd, considering it was his go-to post move last season.
I saw a few times earlier in the season and I believe he made it twice against the clipps

[bdreason]

Wish this was on national tv.

[Just2McFly]

Smith is gonna be a problem tonight.

[Zodiac]

Aaaaaaaand Rashard already has two fouls.

Lol this is to easy, if Norris Cole and Joel Anthony have to play major minutes the Hawks will win

[Hoiids]

That is the Heats best defensive lineup so I don't see how your comment makes any sense

[madmax]

Hawks are truly a sleeper team this year in the East...it wouldn't surprise me one bit if they reached EC finals this season

[Zodiac]

That is the Heats best defensive lineup so I don't see how your comment makes any sense
Yea, I see why the refs let them mug the other players

[Zodiac]

I see the senseless benching of Teague for Josh's stupid shit continues.

[Jolokia]

Wade moving his feet tonight on defense and offense! O_O

[Zodiac]

Apparently when Battier is defending you he's allowed to grab you arm.

[Hoiids]

Battier destroying JSmith haha

[che guevara]

Lebron's midrange shot has been off this season. Shooting 37% from both 10-15 and 16-23 feet, down quite a bit from the last 2 seasons. I wonder if it's a coincidence that his FTs have been off as well.

[Zodiac]

yea that was a goaltend

[Hoiids]

Joel :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

[Zodiac]

You've got to be ****ing kidding me, Bron just got away with an 8 step travel and 2 push-offs

[Just2McFly]

Smith:bowdown: :bowdown:

[J-Futuristic]

Smoove > Ray Allen

[madmax]

You've got to be ****ing kidding me, Bron just got away with an 8 step travel and 2 push-offs

:lol

[Hoiids]

Lebron full court layup with 4 seconds. Got fouled like three times, no big deal

[SpaceJammeR]

You've got to be ****ing kidding me, Bron just got away with an 8 step travel and 2 push-offs

you kidding? he got fouled.

[BrickingStar]

they foul lebron and still couldn't stop him lol

[Zodiac]

you kidding? he got fouled.
Bullshit, he lost the ball, threw his left arm up than picked up the ball ran around Josh and finally put it back on the floor

[bingo123]

What? He is shooting 47,1% from 10-15 and 43% from 16-23 feet so far this season.

[HEAT111]

Bullshit, he lost the ball, threw his left arm up than picked up the ball ran around Josh and finally put it back on the floor


He was fouled and the official didn't call it.:applause: :applause:

[Zodiac]

Tripping over his clown feet losing the ball and throwing his arm up isn't a foul you retard

[madmax]

Heat are getting mauled inside...same old same old

[SpaceJammeR]

Tripping over his clown feet losing the ball and throwing his arm up isn't a foul you retard

you just sound like a butthurt fan. serously all your post on this thread is complaints. lol lebron got held on his hand on that drive and no call. you should be happy.

[BrickingStar]

What a slam :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

[Zodiac]

Where the hell did Josh learn how to hit 3s?

[kurt_rambis]

dear god, lebron with the left handed tip dunk

[Screamingdoom]

Great putback, heat moving the ball well

[che guevara]

What? He is shooting 47,1% from 10-15 and 43% from 16-23 feet so far this season.
No he isn't.

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/j/jamesle01/shooting/2013/

If you're getting your numbers from hoopdata, don't. They don't record all FG attempts.

[Rubio2Gasol]

Smith :bowdown:

[BrickingStar]

LeBron feeling it

[Screamingdoom]

Official really became the sixth player for the heat on that other play, keeping it inbounds lol

[josh99]

:lol at the ref kicking the ball to Chalmers, conspiracy theorists are gonna love that

[Micku]

No he isn't.

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/j/jamesle01/shooting/2013/

If you're getting your numbers from hoopdata, don't. They don't record all FG attempts.

Yeah, I don't think hoopdata updates as often as Basketball reference and I didn't know that they don't record all FG attempts. Anyway, I like basketball reference because you can actually see where they shoot the shot.

Wade is actually better than LeBron at the 16 ft to 3pt line. It doesn't seem like it.

[BrickingStar]

air ball :lol

[BrickingStar]

bosh trying a short alley oop to wade from mid court at the end.

[SpaceJammeR]

bosh trying a shot alley oop to wade from mid court at the end.

lol caught that one too.:lol

[fsvr54]

How about we play some defense in the second half, horrible.

[DuMa]

Bosh dunk attempts are getting kind of sad.....

[derb2k2]

these defenses:facepalm :facepalm

[Micku]

Wade's shot is on tonight. Hitting mid range jumpers and getting some good looks. He can't make his FTs though.

[Zodiac]

Odd couple of possessions for Teague

[Zodiac]

8-22 on 3s, hurts not having Korver, he usually hits 4-5 a game.

[DuMa]

so Wade is done right? :rolleyes:

[SpaceJammeR]

perimeter d sucks. too much overplaying and trapping, leading to a lot of open 3's.

[Zodiac]

so Wade is done right? :rolleyes:Pretty much every SG has ripped the Hawks a new one...

we don't have a SG taller than 6'3 aside from Korver and he's inactive

[DuMa]

dat no look

[Screamingdoom]

What a pass, Bron and Wade are clicking

[clayton]

Battier finally shoots better by learning not to contest his own shots.

[DuMa]

Josh Smith open 3 all day

[Just2McFly]

Josh smtih is a top 15 player this year ladies and gentlemen

[Just2McFly]

smh at this foul call:facepalm

bron just missed the dunk, it happens refs

[Zodiac]

Bron missed the dunk, ref calls a foul when he wasn't even touched.

WOW lololololol

[DuMa]

retarded refs :facepalm

[Just2McFly]

f*cking trash call tho....

[Zodiac]

I hope someone intentionally barrels right into the knee of one of these "Star" players when there's a BS call like that.

It'll probably cut down those BS calls significantly if opponents start responding by blowing their knees out.

[SpaceJammeR]

that woulda been a monster dunk.

[fsvr54]

Absoulte bullshit.

[DatAsh]

f*cking trash call tho....

Indeed. Lebron hasn't been getting very many calls this year though.

[DuMa]

Joel block
Cole alleyoops to LBJ.

even Jay Z had to smile at that

[Just2McFly]

what did Devin even do?

[BrickingStar]

Damn what a play

[SpaceJammeR]

hooo sh!t!! sky high:rockon:

[AlonzoGOAT]

The Warden with the block and the start of a beast transition play.

[Screamingdoom]

Lebron Skywalking!

[DatAsh]

Joel is key to the Heat's halfcourt defense. He should really be getting more minutes.

[PJR]

Defense has certainly improved with Joel Anthony's reinsertion to the Heat rotation.

[AlonzoGOAT]

Who's that ugly ass chick next to jay-z he can do better than 5's :facepalm




lol jk

[AlonzoGOAT]

wade has look really good back to back games :applause: :bowdown:

[DuMa]

i think the heat defense should be fine as long if either battier or joel is on the floor at all times

[DaSeba5]

The Heat's defense looks so good tonight, especially with Joel in there. They've been playing good defense the last 2 games. The NY game was a wake up call.

[Micku]

Defense has certainly improved with Joel Anthony's reinsertion to the Heat rotation.

He's underrated when it comes to defense imo. He hustles and gets blocks or change ppl shots.

Wade's on fire.

[Screamingdoom]

Cole's been great tonight

[DuMa]

is it safe to say even Norris Cole is better than Chalmers

[AlonzoGOAT]

Cole World all day and oh my goodness wade 10 for 12

[AlonzoGOAT]

OH my god if lebron finished that :lol

[DuMa]

Lebron was thinking posterization :eek:

[SpaceJammeR]

Cole World all day and oh my goodness wade 10 for 12

yup and last game he was 9 for 12. lets hope he keeps it up.

[SIRI1]

Wade looks to be turning things around. He's now 19-24 in the last 2 games.

[DuMa]

Lawler's Law :applause:

[Hotlantadude81]

Hawks got nothing. Getting stomped on by the stars as always.

Don't even bring up Memphis and their cast of 2nd raters.

[clayton]

dat hairline

[AlonzoGOAT]

if lebron really cared that much about stats he would of beat the crap out of bosh for not making that layup at the end instead of laughing and spanking his butt for good effort :lol

[Just2McFly]

Hawks got nothing. Getting stomped on by the stars as always.

Don't even bring up Memphis and their cast of 2nd raters.
What a little b*tch

[red1]

bosh = maximum swagger

[EnoughSaid]

bosh = maximum swagger

In an interview with Oprah after winning the title, both Wade and Bron agreed that Bosh is the classiest dresser.

[fsvr54]

What a bummer...

[DaSeba5]

Great win on offense and defense tonight

[Hotlantadude81]

What a little b*tch

That's just what I was thinking as the hawks left the court licking their wounds.
