He missed 15 shots and had 7 turnovers.

No one played well tonight.

At this rate Josh won't want to come back next year.

Congrats to Smoove on the TD. Screw JJ for not bothering to show up yet again. Mr. Whine about not having any help and not even showing up for every game this year. Hawks would be .500 or better if JJ bother to show up every game. He has done more harm than good this year to the Hawks.

Horford and Childress played well.

Josh had some of the dumbest plays in the entire game on both ends of the floor. He didn't play well until after he got a tech.

Childress did lead the team in getting his shot blocked, I'll give him that.

I get sick of folks pointing out the bad with Josh Smith.... say what you want, this guy makes plays! I wish the rest of these guys played with half the heart he does. Everybody talks about his shot selection - I don't mind if he shoots a few jumpers a night... he's earned it! He's the hardest working guy on the floor! He can take a jumper

And his turnovers... do you guys realize that Jason Kidd and Steve Nash are numbers 2 and 3 in turnovers? Yeah they're PGs and they handle the ball alot, but so does Josh. And he proves he's capable of doing so too... he regularly has 4 to 5 assists a night. Some might say he shouldn't be handling the ball, but what else you gonna do with what we've got on this team?? When the rest of these darn guys act like they're scared, at least Josh wants the ball! You gotta take the good with the bad.

I'm not going to defend Smoove for his turnovers and he hurt us and was out of control. I feel bad for him because no one else comes out with the intensity he does.

I don't even want to talk about JJ anymore. He is a disgrace.

While Josh did make plenty of mistakes, he also managed to have a triple down, so it's hard for me to point the finger at him. I'd still like to see Al be more productive on offense. We need him to stay inside and become the threat we desperately need.

Well, I'm not surprised to see the Hawks lose this one... and I wouldn't be surprised either if they lose the next games on the road. And for Smoove? I bet he's itchin' to get the heck out of the team and go somewhere where everybody can stick to their minds and help one another. Oh, and didn't I say anything about a better coach and a PG?

Well, this game says it all, the Hawks are hopeless.

Jsmoove is really going balls out every game. It's sad that some of the other guys have not followed suit.

The guy is all over the damn floor trying and making plays.

I really hope he continues to improve and grow AFTER he gets his contract. It would be an absolute shame if he just packed it up after getting the contract, because let's be frank, his price is going up after this season.
