Blah blah blah
Is it to much to ask for a team that plays hard and cares? Seems so.

Guaranteeing a win. Eventually we have to step up on the road vs a team with a winning record.

Utah is favored to win by 6 points. Paul Millsap is supposedly banged up, but is expected to play. I hope we're prepared for this battle tonight.

Is Josh Smith injured or just in foul trouble. I hate not being able to see the dam games. Box watching sux.

Smith's head always looks like it's on the verge of falling off.

This is a nice surprise to walk into. Got home from church just in time for some really good team thrashing the Jazz.

So, WHO are these guys? Did we make some big trade?

Seriously, Joe, Jamal and Al just can't miss, can they?

Watch a master at work, namely Jerry Sloan: even in a blow out, he's teaching his young players. If Drew tried, he'd find he CAN chew gum and walk at the same time. He CAN teach and work the sideline at the same time.

Forgive me for repeating this every single year but I'd love to have Sloan.

A strong win tonight. Nothing to nit pick about. Hope we play well on Saturday for my first live game since the last time the Pacers were in town.

In baseball, they teach that you're going to win 1/4 of your games, no matter what, because you'll be going so well ... and you're going to lose 1/4 of your games because the opposite will be true. The character of your season rests on the other 2/4.

This is one of those can't-miss games. Just enjoy 'em ... and remember 'em when the just-can't-get-going games come around.

Birds did work that game, a complete rout of the Jazz in Utah. For the Hawks that's like a random guy off the street asking a SuperModel for sex and she gives him a stare and says: "Let me think about it". :o

I means the odds contrast exactly so I really enjoyed that game, now excuse me while i go down to the local Model Agency. :wink:
