Something has to give tonight as the Atlanta Hawks (17-21) visit Seattle for a Matchup with the reeling Sonics (9-33). Seattle is riding a franchise record 12 game losing streak while the Hawks are losers of 4 straight. One way or another one team will snap their losing streak.

It was made by Dolfan23, an admin on HS


I give him a couple of pics and an idea behind them and he does the magic.

Nice thread.

It would be embarrassing to lose this game.

^^^ Yep. Remember we are the streak breakers though. Long losing streaks always seem to end with us.

Well if the Hawks lose it won't be because the game thread sucked!

Early line has us favored by 1.5 with 198.5 as the o/u. We owe them payback for early this season.

If Hawks don't win against this team, then Woodson seriously need to go... right after the game.

I'm seeing that Atlanta is favored by 1.5 points. Dallas, update it if you see it change please.

It's not like we beat them the first time Master8492 and that was at home.

Let's see who can end his losing streak. Though, the only chance it's us, is if we play with the same passion like we did against the Lakers and Rockets.

BTW: Here's the Sonics game thread.

$10 says Wilkins has another career night against us like he does every time.

and another $10 says he might not get off the bench at all.
But hey, we'd take a career night of Wally or Durant as well. :D

I just thought of something. It's probably a good thing I did a new thread for this game.

I was just going to post a recycled one from HS. It was pretty F'in mean spirited though!

Maybe Marv can show out being from the area.

I fully expect him to. Having tons of your friends and family in the stands definitely has a tangible effect on players.

A very winnable game for the Hawks. Seattle cannot buy a win. They have a great rookie in Durant, but he doesn't have much to work with. Its like giving Da vinci crayons and playdough.

Why would Wilkins not play against the only team he plays well against? It's hilarious looking at his season splits and what he averages against each team. It's like 2, 9, 6, 12, 10, 19, 5, 20, 13, 8, 2, 41...
