We have won the last seven meetings. Mo Evans is going to sit this one out.

Since this is a makeup date does anyone know if this game is going to be shown anywhere?

Not sure - I actually have really good tickets for this game, but since it's a Thursday in DC I can't attend =(

Think I will watch the Office/30Rock instead. This team has become depressing to watch.

Blah... I know right, I called myself saying they'll shake off the Heat loss, only to struggle vs NY. The only good thing going for them is Boston lost.

I have watched parts of the last two Wizards games. They actually had a 13 pt 4th quarter lead against Boston in Boston. I turned it on just in time to watch them choke.

They looked pretty bad against Houston. Blatche managed to take 22 shots without getting to the line once. Their offense was horrible until Shaun Livingston came in the game late and they made a little run.

They don't box out at all.

what are the chances u guys beat this team by 7 or more points?
I'm thinkin about putting about 20 bucks on this game on a betting website....

I lost the Mavs 11 points spread last night vs the nets...so I have to win 2nite or I won't be betting for awhile.

Al Thorton will kill us... but we will win this one specially if JJ takes less shots.

Betting on Hawks = trouble. The recently blew an 18 pt 2nd half lead against GS and lost. They have had trouble finishing games for awhile now.

We dont boxout either. Someone tell Mcgee to stop acting like a **** when he dunks it.

tontoz · Post #12 » by **tontoz** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 12:59 am

the hawks are getting punk'd on the boards but a team that is terrible on the boards.

Man i cant stand Joe Smith.

ATL DirtyBird · Post #13 » by **ATL DirtyBird** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 1:03 am

Josh has 4 TOs in the first half, and 10 as a team. Sloppy play.
This is not the team I saw early in the season.

evildallas · Post #14 » by **evildallas** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 1:05 am

Not sure who's played worse so far tonight the Hawks or the Jackets. 11 TO's and lackluster D has really taken away from 60%+ shooting.

Thank God for Marvelous.

@ Marvin. He can't make a standstill 3 but he can make a runner.

Horford/Smith/Marvin have a combined 1 defensive rebound at the half. That is a disgrace.

Post #17 » by **HMFFL** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 1:18 am

Poor FT shooting, poor rebounding, 11 personal fouls, and we turned the ball over way too much.

tontoz · Post #18 » by **tontoz** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 1:41 am

I guess Crawford's shoulder is ok now.

ATL DirtyBird · Post #19 » by **ATL DirtyBird** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 1:43 am

Why dont we want to rebound? I just cant understand the reasons why. If we attacked the boards it would be over.
We have dropped tons of passes tonight.
The things I would do if Josh would limit himself to 1 or 2 jumpshots a game.

Also, wasnt Josh making all his free throws last week? WTF happened?

Not much to take from this game. Bibby played well & the Hawks rebounding was terrible. Blatche's offensive game is straight out of the 1980's.
