Bounce back, bouncey bounce.

Hawks (49-27, 17-20 away) W1 6-4
Bobcats (40-36, 29-9 home) L1 6-4

Info:

1) Joe Johnson might miss the game due to injury. Hopefully he does rest his injury and will skip our game.
2) Our Jack in injured as well. Might start and play limited minutes, play full minutes depending on his feeling or skip game at all. Then we probably start Hughes instead of him (god bless us).
3) Hawks are looking for 3rd seed and go it for full throttle. That means 3rd seed can probably play against Milwaukee without Bogut in first round, which is awfully good for then. Expect no mercy.

Keys to the game.

1) Come up with energy and passion. Chicago's game 4th quarter looked like they were walking straight to graveyard, planning to stay there.
2) All-Star needs to play heart out. He need to fight against Josh and Al for boards.
3) TT - our secret weapon. Hope he is feeling better. His energy, rebounding and inner defense means a lot. As TT plays good, he sparkles Diaw to earn his playing time, which is Win-Win situation for us.
4) Hope this time good Hughes will sign up.
5) Horford is kind of force down low. But he is averaging just 1 block per game and attacking him hopefully would result a foul. He is averaging 2 fouls per contest against us this year, which is remarkable. Josh Smith aint better, averaging like 4 fouls. Just keep attacking the rim and hope for foul.

I guess I am 5-1 in GT's so I hope I can continue this run and make it 6-1.

Let the Arena support us into our first post-season.

After the brain fart that cost us the game the last time we faced the Hawks I really hope we can pull this one out.

We are about due for a monster-world beater-can't be stopped-OMG-Bobcats type game.

Pity the Hawks are still playing for 3rd position. Means they wont go easy on us.

'Sup guys

Long time lurker, but I thought I would drop in before the real stuff starts in a few weeks

So pumped for this game, it is actually being shown free to air in Australia, which is unprecedented for this franchise. Go 'Cats

LB HAS to limit Hughes PT for this one. Hope Jackson is healthy (and sober).

Gut check time again. After pissing away a win vs Chicago, this is one the Cats better win. Momentum is important right now. Raptors and Bulls are still fighting hard, and the Buck wont simply roll over and die because of the Bogut injury. We have to play well to get the momentum going as we head into the playoffs - hopefully.

Better news for tonights game. Looks like Joe Cool will be sitting this one out:

Johnson (thumb) will miss the Hawks' next two games, Tuesday at Charlotte and Wednesday at Detroit, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Michael Cunningham reports.

My family is away for a week so I can drink as much gin/tonic as I want, and watch whatever I want. It's a strange feeling.

Given these newly discovered circumstances this has the potential to be the greatest GT ever.

In the history of ever.

While Mo Evans can't crate his own shot or shots for others like JJ can, Evans can still drain the long ball.

Something we have to be very mindful of.

I'm expecting a complete zip of a game from Chandler, since he's almost looked useful the last few. He's ready to suck, and we are ready to dog him.

What's this about a death of GWall's grandma? That's not funny. Gerald, did you know that Mr. Death wears a Hawks uniform? Just saying. Take revenge.
