Atlanta Pick breakdown/ east standings

Arles · Post #21 » by **Arles** » Wed Apr 9, 2008 4:16 am

The best bet is for the Hawks to go 1-3 and Indiana go 3-1. Given Atlanta has a gimme with Miami, that means the Knicks need to beat them. If that happens, I could see Indiana pulling it out. If Atlanta beats the Knicks, I think they are in.

Jeez, how bad are the Bulls? They lost to a Miami team with no Marion, Wade, Banks or Haslem. The Knicks beat Detroit so maybe they can knock off Atlanta too.

So are you dismissing Magic as capable of stopping the Hawks?

Orlando should win that game I think. I am praying that Indy over takes them in the playoffs, but I think it wont happen. Boy, I would love to see that pick a little closer to #10.

Now the bulls, what a pethetic team! Really. Paxson I think is overrated as a GM, and should have made some moves to get his team better. Its pethetic how the got beat by a D-league team. What a shame. To bad BC did not get this years pick from them.

It would be great if the pick would be lottery. We have to pray.....

Man, I'll run around naked if we can get high enough to get Jordan. We could use him the exact same way with the pick and rolls.

.......... @ the loss agains the cats.

I was watching the game and marquis daniels threw it away when he chucked up a dumb shot.

Hard to believe hotlanta will choke away two games to get into the playoffs, so we should let this past us and focus on the championship baby!

and the Pacers fold again! Picking 15th.

This should put some closure on the JJ trade debates.

Good luck in the playoffs PHX.

eh, picking at 15 beats picking at 29.

15th is okay.

So Diaw + 15th for JJ...

Sometimes its worth it, but some games its a bad ripped off trade for the Suns.

So the difference between us picking at 15 and picking at 11 was Indiana's 3 point loss to the Bobcats earlier in the week. Amazing.

:noway:

Not quite. You really think the Hawks would've lost to the heat had it meant something. Hawks rested their guys some in the second half and I'm sure the effort wasn't there like it would've been had they been playing for their playoff lives.

The debates were closed the day the trade happened. I am glad we didn't resign JJ or we would have had to pay him $20 million his first year (front loaded contract).

And from what I can see, he cannot carry a team by himself (Bibby trade?).

Granted, I also hate Diws contract. But glad it wasn't front or back loaded.
