I truly feel sorry for the Knicks tonight if this team has any semblance of fire or vengeance in their hearts.

New York has won 3 of the last 4? That boggles my mind.

Im still distraught over the Cleveland games. I would think the Hawks would be pissed and try their best to take a dump on the Knicks. Who knows with this team. GO HAWKS!

Going to this one. If the players are anywhere close to as hungover as I am then it's going to be one sloppy game.

I just dont understand why when Joe catches the ball everyone has to clear out. Joe is in to many isos. That bull **** will kill us come playoff time.

Has anyone noticed a difference in Smith's stance at the foul line? it looks like his right foot is further back.

I really wish Joe/Crawford/Bibby would stop shooting so many jumpshots vs the worst shot blocking team in the NBA.

Yet another 4th quarter choke job.

This team has been really frustrating lately. Inability to stop quick guards(Robinson)and completely ignoring whatever worked in the 1st 3 quarters offensively. Not surprised.

I know Joe just hit a big shot...but would it kill the Hawks to run an actual play in the 4th quarter? Are they watching the same film that I'm watching on these 4th quarter meltdowns?

Woodson needs to trust Teague in situations like this one. He's the only one with a chance of slowing down a hot shooting small like Nate.

Hawks getting owned by a guy who hasn't played in a month.

Mike Bibby continues to pass up open looks.

Edit: Well, he missed that one.

Like I said last game....

The Hawks ignore whatever happened in the 1st 3 quarters and become extremely predictable on offense in the 4th quarter. They also don't have a guard(that gets minutes)that can drive and kick or someone who can stop the other guy from getting to the basket at will(Rose/Nate)which makes it even worse.

Would have been nice to get the call where Jeffries hip checked Josh on the last NY play in the 4th.

Crawford should have been in there instead of someone. We need him to guard Nate. He's better at it than Bibby for sure.

0-2 vs the Knicks at home. Inexcuseable.

Didnt watch the game until late 4th and OT. We were up 14? WTF happened. Something needs to happen with Bibby cuz PGs have field days on him

He is just too old to deal with small, quick pgs who drive.

Would it kill Woodson to make an adjustment on the way we defend Robinson?
