Hawks v. Knicks: another day for the kiddies.

I've been watching since the beginning of the 3rd qtr. Nothing news-worthy to report.

Just thought I'd start a thread in case a basketball game breaks out. Right now, it looks like an all-star game (without the talent, that is) - no passing, just "I'm gonna get mine."

Looking hopeless at this point, just a game of the young guys trying to show off and prove themselves.

Poor Shelvin Mack - against sub-par competition, he proved not to be able to run an offense, not to be able to shoot and, pathetically, not to be able to defend . . . At. All. He is a sad, sad defender.

This game made me really want the exits of Mack, Tolliver and Petro. Dahntay Jones probably shouldn't buy a house in Atlanta, either.

For those interested, Mike Scott looked great (again, against sub-par competition). His 23/14 came the hard way. Man is a worker with really good instincts. And Jenkins looked good at everything except 3pt shooting. He can create his own shot and is terrific at coming open around picks. His shot repertoire around the basket is interesting, as well. He shot 8-13 with a lot of nifty moves in close. However, he finished shooting 8-19 because of his 0-6 3pt shooting.
