I love seeing these game threads with pretty pictures, so thanks, but the addition of the nickleback song really lowers the quality. Perhaps return of the mac would be a better choice?

Lol sry it was the closest stand together song i could find

Oh yes I'm loving the Hawks right now. Marvin killing Deng! Now If Smith can take one dribble and shoot the 16 footer. No letdown out the gates look focused from Miami. As I write JJ with the floater.

That Josh Smith + JJ play. Why don't we run it more?

As I write this Horford drives into Noah from top of the key. Foul #1

Marvin looks fantastic.

Overall, things are looking good so far, some mistakes, but nothing that we won't be able to fix.

Bulls announcer, when Smith took that long shot from the top of the key, "THERE'S the Atlanta Hawks we've grown to know and love."

EVERYbody knows except...

A battle of defensive juggernauts going on right now heh heh.

Honestly, I find myself staring attentively at my TV screen just to indentify the different defenses we are running, Drew even has the guys switching coverages continously within a single possession.

But, at the end, there's "iso-Joe" as if we don't have any other players.

And, once again, Joe fails against the doubleteam. One day he'll figure out he shouldn't try to split one but should PASS OUT of it.

I love the work we're putting on the boards. Josh Smith has 11 at the half.

I doubt Chicago continues to shoot bad during the second half so we better be prepared.

Great ball movement but we need our shots to fall.

Right now, I'm saying very bad things about Mr. Drew. He left our 2nd team in there until the Bulls got hot.

Whenever we take a lead, Drew chokes.

Professionals MAKE free throws.

Iso-Joe, NOW?

Maybe Drew's the guy with back-to-back fatigue.

What the hell has happened this second half? Wow.

What was that Joe Johnson? Why did Joe take a 3 with all that time left on the shot clock?
