let's get the ball rolling, we need every win we can get now in the second half of the season.

the hawks have been rolling lately and their defense is to thank for that - they've been the best team in the league defensively over that past few weeks.

leuer and KCP's statuses are still in the air for tonight.

go pistons!

Hawks are legit. A lot of talk about them blowing it up, but they seem to keep winning despite losing some of their top players. They've been on fire lately.

A win tonight would be a big step in the right direction. The game was supposed to be televised on ESPN, but was bumped for the Bucks/Rockets game. Hopefully that gives these guys some extra motivation tonight.

I like our chances if KCP and Leuer (both game time decisions) are able to play. If not...

Ohhhh, I get SVGs thinking now...he's waiting to trade for Tim Hardaway today so he doesn't have to travel to get to our team.

He'll make the trade today, Tim walks into daddy's arms on the other side of the arena. SVG, you are so smart!!

KCP OUT. But at least Baynes is good to go...LOL. Still amazes me SVG still hasnt figured out Boban is far superior to Stone Hands Baynes in every way.

If Leuer is out we have no chance without KCP. I'm just hoping to see Stanley continue to play well...

Need bullock to have a good game today. SVG obviously thinks highly of him, throwing him right into the fire after returning. If he can hit a few 3's and play good enough defense, that could give us a decent chance to take down one of the hottest teams in the league.

Also, gonna need stanimal to do stanimal things...

I feel like every Tobias shot is going in when it leaves his hands.

Love that energy. But Dre don't shoot to many of your brick hooks
