Big game tonight fellas.

We are a full game ahead of them and a win would be huge. We have the talent, we just have to come out and play. Of course this is the Hawks so who knows what will actually happen.

On another note, we could make it to 30 wins and its not even April!!!

Continuing that "I don't fear Boston" thread from last night. If we make the playoffs, I really don't see us playing the role of a spoiler. It would be a victory in my mind if we could lose a playoff game to them by less than 10 points.

Is Devin Harris going to miss the game tonight?

No word yet about Harris to my knowledge.

We seriously need to win this game.

Getting the Washington win takes some of the pressure off. But a win tonight would be fantastic. I'd like to see us come out loose and not press too much as we often do on the road.

right now we are in playoff basketball. i think we still haev two games left against philly and a win tonight could put us into a position to steal the sixth seed in the final week. to me that the difference between getting obliterated in the first or second round. gotta finish strong though and take care of business. can we do it?

i don't know...

I definitely won't feel bad if Harris sits out. I worry about him the most. Especially with Bibby on the floor.

Agreed.

Bibby's D can be masked by his offense only if his shot is falling.

Hawks favored to win by 2.5

O/U is 195.5

Another reason we really need this game is to square the series at 2-2 on the season. I think it has already been discussed that we are weak on the next tie breaker, but better that than losing the first tie-breaker on the head-to-head record.

Word.

This game is too important to watch on TV. I'm going in.

This is a momentum builder....with a win.

And a loss of momentum...with a loss.

WE NEED THIS GAME TONIGHT!!

Come on Hawks....get me optimistic again with a win!

It's midnight here in Hungary, tomorrow morning I have to work, but I can't miss this game. Probably I won

We've got some great wins to put ourselves back in playoff contention, but we need to keep it going to solidify ourselves in the 8th spot. Then maybe we could make a run for the 7th seed, maybe 6th.

GO HAWKS, go get that big W.

Big Al Horford looks better and better as the year has gone on. He's become my favorite Hawk since Mookie.

Damn! We gotta stop giving up these layups!!! This is ridiculous... these guys aren't helping at all!!! Just standing there looking!!

This is really fun to watch. 2 teams actually trying in a regular season NBA game! It's kinda like watching a college game. By the way, I ignored all recent history of choking and logic and picked Kansas in my pool (over my beloved 'Heels). Who do you guys have taking the tourney?

Love the heart and intensity by Marvin on that put back.
