We have two games against Cleveland coming up. If it isn't us I would love for you guys to take them down!

Good luck. That team is playing on another level. It also helps when its 8 on 5(Refs).
Is it to much to ask for a team that plays hard and cares? Seems so.

Really don't think you guys are catching the Cavs in the standings, so I've got to cheer for whatever helps us finish ahead of you. Since we can't even play you close we'll have to rely on anyone who can give you a loss. Go Cavs.

I agree with the 8 on 5 comment and I am not one that believes too often that the refs are biased. However, I get sick every time I watch the Cavs play because of all the calls that go their way. Not just against us, did you watch the Cavs vs. Heat game the other day? Wade had about three phantom fouls called against him and he usually gets the benefit of the doubt. He and Jermaine were getting hacked on the other end with no calls...

I am over the Cavs and I believe they will be a marginal team come playoffs.

If it were the playoffs, I would pull with all of my heart for Orlando. However, Cleveland winning will help us, but I still can't root for them. I'll just glance at the score after the game, and see who won. Orlando fans are about to be frustrated as hell, because Lebron will shoot 15+ FTs, and have only 1 foul called on him, while Howard will probably foul out.

I wish we were in a different division because most Hawks fans are a class act. I know it will be 8 on 5 as the league wants the Lakers and Cavs in the finals However, I still like to see the games played. If Lebron was called like a mere mortal alot of game outcomes would be different.

No ONE in history of Basketball has been as untouchable on both offensive fouls and defense as Lebron.

I understand being in the same division you goys not rooting for us but, is there any joy in seeing Lebron celebrating another win?

^^^ I take solace in him losing in post-season and then walking away without shaking hands or talking to the media.

and ditching his teammates on the bus ride and flight after the game. Oh well, it's the NBA golden boy!

How I miss the old days.
