GT: Clippers @ Hawks 12/23

[bdreason]

Pretty good game so far. Hawks started off well, but the Clippers defense has responded. Teague back after missing 3 games. He looks alright, but Schroder has been terrible so far.

[LoneyROY7]

I like this game thread better than the last one. :applause:

[bdreason]

oops didn't realize there was another thread.

[bdreason]

Hawks need to run more plays for Korver.

[bdreason]

Clippers defense in the 2nd Q was phenomenal.

[LoneyROY7]

Clips defense came alive in that 2nd quarter. Blake also with a great half of basketball.

[Real14]

Lets go clippers :applause:

[bdreason]

CP3 taking over the game.

[LoneyROY7]

Blake dropping dimes tonight.

[L8krH8tr]

Clippers suck so bad, First round exit waiting to happen.

[Young X]

Clippers bench is sooo bad.

[Dro]

Horford, killing Jordan right now...:applause:

[LoneyROY7]

Clips imploding hard.

[Dro]

That was a pretty bad call....Dennis had his hands straight up......Well, we got a good game here.....

[hawksdogsbraves]

Let's go Hawks :applause:

[Dro]

CP3:applause:

[LoneyROY7]

Blake literally gets zero calls on the road. :facepalm

[macpierce]

Crawford is incredibly frustrating to watch. This ****ing clown hits the biggest shots, but also has some of THE WORST shot selection of all time.

Out there making Kobe look efficient :facepalm

[hawksdogsbraves]

Gah the Clippers are too big, we can't get a board :banghead:

[truhooper]

CP3 :facepalm

[hawksdogsbraves]

Come on make a damned shot

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Why is Chris being soo passive? Shoot the f*cking ball, son.

[truhooper]

Why is Horford shooting 3's :biggums:

[WallIn]

:oldlol: :oldlol:

Wtf Horford

[LoneyROY7]

Chris Paul is not clutch. I'm sorry, but I've seen enough games with him, and he fails much more often than he succeeds late in the game.

[Dro]

Why is Horford shooting 3's :biggums:
He was hot earlier...Now he's missed his last few but they've all been good/great shots.......

[WallIn]

Fouling Korver...bad idea

[hawksdogsbraves]

God ****ing damnit

[hawksdogsbraves]

:facepalm

God damn this last minute has been some ugly basketball

[PsychoBe]

korver the heart and soul of the hawks :applause:

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Anybody know what Barnes' purpose on this team is?

[hawkfan]

Kyle can sky.

[noob cake]

Horford choke time

[Dro]

In before game tying 3 from Crawford.......

[LoneyROY7]

Still life. Barely.

Let's see if one of these anti-clutch shooters we have can actually come through for once.

[hawksdogsbraves]

Come on defense let's close it out :applause:

[hawkfan]

In before game tying 3 from Crawford.......

Never should have let him go.

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Paul practically fumbles the ball out of bounce, and Griffin is forced to take a prayer. Nice. Just the way Doc drew it up.

[LoneyROY7]

What the f*ck was that play? :facepalm

Another loss.

[Dro]

Clippers:roll:

Hawks:applause:

[hawksdogsbraves]

Hawks silencing the haters and giving life to our troll ISH fans :cheers:

5 in a row vs the Bulls, Cavs, Rockets, Mavs, & Clippers?

**** yeah

[Nuff Said]

Hawks with another W against the west

[hawksdogsbraves]

Never should have let him go.

Crawford has no place in our ball movement offense :oldlol:

I swear if it were up to you we'd still have Woodson

[Richesly]

I wanna make a thread stating Hawks win streak right now is against CHI, CLE, HOU, DAL, and LAC, but I'll chill this time. Won't get so lucky next time.

[blood yes]

I don't know why people are so surprised at how good the hawks are. Remember, these were the guys who took the #1 seed Pacers to SEVEN games. This team is no joke. Had they beat the pacers in the first round, they would have no doubt met the heat in the ECF. This Hawks team is legit, the only problem I see from them is who is their "star" player. Teague will have to take his game to another level this season, and with Schroeder right on his tails for the starting pg spot, I feel that he will

[Young X]

Paul practically fumbles the ball out of bounce. Nice.He's been turning the ball over too much in these situations recently, he used to be one of the best in the league in the clutch, idk what happened. :facepalm

Clippers desperately need to do something about their bench, I've seen them at least 5 games alone strictly because of their horrible bench.

[Dro]

I just don't understand how the Hawks defense is so good without a rim protector.....Then again the Spurs don't have on either and there's is just fine......

You dont need a rim protector if you have solid team defense.

[atljonesbro]

The hawks are dominating the league right now. What a run

[navy]

Hawks second best team in the league right now. :applause:

Don't forget last season when hawks were also at the top but fell off after Al's injury. They were dominating then as well so this is no fluke.

we have a lot of length on the perimeter with Dennis, Thabo, Bazemore and DMC, and we also have Korver who is a very smart team defender and is 6,7.

Thabo was a great pickup.
I wish we had gotten Deng as well.

The fact that hardly any bigs in the league have good post games helps. We do tend to get outrebounded quite often though.

I think the Hawks are very disciplined in their rotations and they are always in good position defensively....They did give up many offensive rebounds down the stretch of the game, helped keep LA in it but LA gave up some too down the stretch.....

That is why I still don't think Hawks can beat the Bulls in 7. Right now they probably are good enough to take out Cavs, Wizards and maybe the Raps, But I expect Pau, A healthy Noah (which hawks did not see last week) and Gibson to wear them out in a full series.
They look good now though, no doubt.
