LOL at the Nets trying to run up the score. God I hope they lose.

Only down 6 with over 2 minutes left. I wonder what it would if not for that dumb goal tend on Josh and tech on Marvin.

Smith and Chil are still playing hard.

We're only down 2...that 4 point play is going to come back to haunt us.

Joe is really playing like his recent quotes.....It's like he doesn't even care!

I just don't understand this team...

We are bi-polar. I don't remember the last time we played consistently well over 48 minutes(I think vs. Charlotte or Orlando_).

LOL wtf was Woody doing? We're down 4 with 40 seconds left and he doesn't foul?

Not a situation to foul IMO. You need to expect your team to be able to get a stop. They got a 24 second violation out of it but it was called a dunk. I don't understand Smith going for a fade away shot when he has been getting to the rim at will and he has probably made that shot twice in his entire career.

I don't think Boone got that dunk off before the shot clock expired.

High even if the dunk didn't count we would have been down 4 with 19 seconds left which is still a two possession game. I'd take down 5 or 6 with 40 plus seconds left over 4 with 19 any day.

You get a quick score (like we did) and it's a two point game with like 15 seconds left.

This loss pisses me off more than anyone we've had in awhile. I am so disgusted for so many reasons. This game was a disgrace (other than Smith obviously).

I see that no foul approach a lot. I don't like it. I believe you have to lengthen the game at that point. Losing the entire 24 seconds is a death sentence. Of course without 3 point shooting it was a long shot anyway.

It's so hard to be a Hawks fan...oh well, off to watch the Celtics and Pistons and see some real basketball.

Joe's play was down right disgraceful tonight. I thought everyone else played ok but Josh Smith didn't get the ball enough in the second half and the officiating was very sketchy in the 4th.
