If my softball game gets rained out (small chance), I may make the 4 hour drive to see this one.
Last time I went to Atlanta to see a Suns game, Amar'e posterized Josh Smith. I think it was in '07 or around that time.

Problem is, to buy one ticket, prices are insane. Hoping they drop.

Good thing we took the CLE game to overtime, our starters should be well rested for this one.

Hawks have been really good the past couple months. Our old friend Bogdan has been killing it.

Tough game regardless but even more so on a B2B. We'll probably know in the first 5 minutes if this will be a game or a repeat of the Boston game where the tired legs were obvious from the get go.

I can still hear the rim noise from that Amare dunk on Josh Smith in ATL.

Tony Snell is one of the weirdest players in the NBA. Dudes shooting 57% from 3 this year... Yes that's not a typo 57 f-ing %. But here's the catch, dude doesn't like to shoot. He plays 20 minutes a night and averages less than 4 FG attempts per game.

It's been this way for years, when he was on the bucks he'd play 30+ minutes some nights and not attempt a shot. He once played 35 minutes and didn't score, or have a single rebound or assist. We used to joke he only played basketball to get his daily cardio.

Oh it's top notch, dude only shoots if he's wide open.

In a league where 90% love to shoot Tony is like 'nah I'm good just running around'.

One correction in the 0s game with the Bucks Tony played 28 mins not 35 but still.

What a joke! If given proper opportunity in 28 min I would put up 3 shots all airballs while suddenly getting a long rebound or an accidental steal off my teammate (preferably Chris Paul). Then be benched by Monty and traded to few 10 day contracts to Lakers and Kings.

Pretty incredible to shoot that percentage without having a mindset to shoot.

Looking like both teams cant stop one another. Expect a 125+ game if that stands true.
