How the hell is this Atlanta team 3rd in the East??? The roster looks atrocious.


Smith-Horford is a beast frontcourt. Teague and Williams are competent. It's not really surprising they're that good, the East is wide open after Miami.

What are you talking about? Horford-Smith is still an elite front court, and they have guys like Lou, Teague who can get hot. I never understood Raptor fans who had us ranked ahead of Atlanta at the start of the season because they lose Iso Joe.

Paul George dropped 29-11 on Lebron and took the win.

Though they are losing right now..ATL must be the most surprising team in the NBA though some "experts" had them ranked as the 3rd best team..

Horford and Smith have always looked like complementary player (Horford has been an all-star by default in the East with the lack of bigs) and both have never been clutch; and can barely create their own shot.

Either way Great Job by Ferry!!

God's honest truth, I can't tell if __ games back of 9th is meant as parody or not.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
