Horford seems like he can make that midrange shot at a decent clip as long as he doesn't shoot too quickly. Too many times it seems like he goes up to fast before he gets his feet set.

Looks like Bibby is moving alot better so far.... the limp is not as noticable.

Salim's 1-6 certainly helped.....the Cats.

Will Smith ever learn to play more under control? Geez.

Yeah, teams now know that's what they'll do.... just turn up the intensity a little bit, and the Hawks will panic, start shooting bricks and turn the ball over to you.

What a debacle. You would think the team would come out and play two of their best games on the year after the GSW game. INstead they will likely lose by double digits to two teams who missed 20 ppg scorers. Just fire Woody and BK now and get it over with ASG.

The only thing remotely positive from the team right now is Horford's improved scoring. Salim=garbage. He's shooting even WORSE after Law's injury than he did before he was the backup pg. Hopefully Law plays better when he returns because this team sucks. This is also the 3rd game in a row where the opposing pg has just ate us alive... please give Bibby a couple of games off.

Charlotte has played really well since the release of McInnis.

I have a problem with some of the turnovers Bibby is making.

Smith has been garbage tonight on both ends.

I don't think the Hawks can expect Bibby to be healthy until next season. Same goes for Law, I'm afraid.

Being hurt doesn't mean you have to make stupid passes.

Marvin and Horford are the only guys who showed up tonight.

Our best player is a rookie. That shows you how bad this team is. Man, i'm so mad at these guys. Horrible effort. I was going to go to tomorrow's game but there's no way it's happening anymore.
GO HAWKS.

I wasn't in favor of firing Woody because I thought he got us to play hard and we were ranked in the top 10 defensively for the majority of the season. It's pretty clear that the team isn't playing hard anymore and this is AFTER they found out that he might get fired(which shows me alot about how soft our team is). It's VERY sad that the two youngest players on the entire team are the only ones who are playing every game as if we were in a playoff race(no suprise that these two were NCAA champs). They've given up on him(besides maybe 2-3 regulars). Woody needs to go ASAP. The Hawks deserve to lose to Miami based on how soft they played in the two games following the GSW loss.

The only bright spot on the team is Horford(and you can't say that Marvin/Chil don't play hard). Hopefully Law comes back and plays well because the two rookies are the only thing keeping me from hating this team.

Not to bash the Hawks any but Dudley isn't a bad player. He has really been turning it on as of late. In his 3 games so far in March, he is averaging a double-double. And his best games were against Toronto and Golden State, not Minny. He has played very good against good teams so far. He did score 17 against Toronto and pulled down 18 rebounds against Golden State.

Yes we should contain him better, but he isn't a bad player at all. I even have him on one of my deep fantasy teams.

Carroll proved what we already knew, we can't stop the 3 ball. 5-6 from 3 land for him. Dudley was 1-3 and Felton was 2-2.
