Only one of those recent meetings resulted in 211 or more points. I think this one is a gift on the side of under. I expect the Hawks to cover as well.

Time to take the 4th seed!

It'd be nice clinch no. 4 with a win. Then let's get everyone rested for the postseason.

I will always look forward to this game, just because I like watching Roy Hibbert, the worst athlete in NBA history, hobble up and down the court like Fred Sanford.

^^^^ HAHAH Hibbert is such a goof.
Lets clinch us a 4th seed Hawks.
Its crazy to think that we are finally about to clinch the 4th seed after struggling for so long, and last year we were fighting a spot in the playoffs. Maybe Woodson does deserve some credit.

^^^^ But not enough credit to change your signature. SneakerKing is a conflicted man. You are not alone. I struggle with subject of Woodson as well.

Important to see how we play these last 3 games. Like whether Marvin's ready and getting him back into game shape/flow. Making sure Joe is rested but still in tune. Seeing how hard the players play or if they try to coast. I don't want a repeat of last year's final 2 regular season games when the starters played heavy minutes and played so poorly that we lost to bad non-playoff teams. I'm fine with not breaking the rotational rhythm heading to the playoffs, but if someone's on the court they should be playing like they need to play not phoning it in.

^^^Im very conflicted. I understand that hes help the team progress a little bit, but I think we could do alot better if we were under the reign of someone different. Ive come to accept that Woodson will stay the coach of the Hawks for quite some time, so there is no need to nitpick anymore, only to praise. Hopefully we can make the same jump that we made this year next year.

Thanks a lot. Now tonight whenever he's on the floor, I'm going to have that theme song in my head.

Its a sweet tune though.

You're welcome. It's a great song, never fails to make me smile.

Other times I start humming Sanford and Son:
-Bobby Cox walking to the pitchers mound
-Phil Jackson walking out on the court, pointing and cursing at the referees
-Marvin Williams waddling out on the court after a time out
-Greg Oden doing mostly anything (so sad, so sad...)

Pacer Fan,

Should be a good game tonight with the Hawks still having reason to play hard (H.C.A)

I am interested in watching Rush vs Johnson, will be a true test of Rush's ability to play defense , and one heck of a challenge

I like watching Roy Hibbert, the worst athlete in NBA history, hobble up and down the court like Fred Sanford

This is probably one of the most exagerated quotes regarding the Pacers I have ever heard .

Hibbert had 17 and 9 last game. Yes he does not have the fluidity of a Hakeem Olijawan but is far from " the worst athlete in NBA history".

He is in his first year in the NBA, playing what is percieved to be the most difficult position to learn in the NBA . To say he has less athleticism than a Manute Bol, Shawn Bradley, etc. is ridiculous.


My prediciction for tonight is (asuming he starts )
14 pts , 8 rbs, 2 blocks

Hey, guys, I wanted to stop by, wish you luck, and congratulate you on your season. Stop by the Pacer board, if you'd like.

However, as to Hibbert being the worst athlete in NBA history, I can tell you unequivocally that you're full o' beans on that one.

We Pacer fans can prove it simply by trotting out Rasho Nesterovic.

Hibbert had 15/7 against us in only 28 minutes last game. I think LL might be channeling his buddy Harry.

i'm pulling for acie law to have a big game tonight

15pts. and 5 ast.

FREE ACIE!!!

GO HAWKS!!!

Just remember the immortal words of Jackie Moon...

THIS IS THE MEGA BOWL!!! WE HAVE A 12 FT. TROPHY AND EVERYTHING!!! WE'RE GONNA SHOOT OFF THIS CANNON WHEN WE WIN!!! FOURTH PLACE!!!

Future is starting tonight!!!!

Future is Marvin Williams my friends and i call him that on the HawkSquawk and in the in game chat.

Marvin is going to play well tonight but im just glad he is back. I hope we dont have a slow start and the fans show up to support the team tonight.

Lets go Hawks.

Maurice Evans is out tonight.
