Josh leading the break, super lazy pass, turnover. Thankful for the Vlad block though...shortlived. Teague has to step up the D on Blake.

Mr. Teague needs some coachin'. Kid ambles up the court, wasting the shot clock, then he wonders where all his time went. Only Willie Green has gotten the ball up with a sense of urgency. Come on, Jeff, about once a night, someone will go to sleep on you if you hustle the ball up.

Damn, this is one of the few times that I honestly think that we could beat the Lakers. We have shot our way outta this one though.

Huge lack of passion on our part. I think I've got our problem pegged: we're out of shape. It's not that we're lazy or depressed, we're tired.

We never played well in this game. The only reason why it was close - when it was close - was because of poor Laker play. As soon as the Lakers decided they wanted the game, it was over.

Well, I'm sick - can't breathe - so I can't sleep. What a night to stay up and watch my Hawks play! Sigh.

Teague needs to learn to finish and he does let people get in the lane at the worse times but Hinrich is no better and probably worse so unless you can get a upgrade we just have to live with him missing all these damn layups. Josh Smith is just not a smart basketball player. Joe is just not a #1. Marvin is just basically worthless. Zaza just does what he can. Willie Green is the best bench player IMO. T-Mac is just another wanna-be PG, we have too many of those also. Guess never score off of Teague's passes either. Some want to talk about him not being a set-up PG but even when he tries they miss open J's and can't finish just like he can't finish.

Man, I am a Hawks fan but I wish we could get rid of Josh and Joe and build around Al.

I missed the entire game due to being sick. Last thing I remember was being up at 7pm and now I just woke-up at 8am. Damn sickness!

Yeah, but when the Martians attack, you and I'll have the antibodies to survive.

Sorry, my humor must be infected, as well.
