When we need a 3 we take a 2, when we need a 2 we take a 3 lol. Bipolar much?

I'm not sure about stan anymore...so many things he does is questionable...You telling me Von couldn't play at any point tonight? Earl couldn't find minutes either when we could of used his athleticism and length? Ish should of played instead of Duhon so we could push the ball and have a real pick and roll PG in there....Why did we stop pushing the ball? Why is Hedo sucking right now? Why? Why?

You're right, that shot (and the follow-up) were two open shots. You have to take that one.

While you guys are visibly upset...something was lost tonight. Do you guys realize that this team isn't folding as bad as you think they are? I haven't been watching the games but I've been watching the box scores and "last plays" and again, you guys should take a look at them because our boys are actually using their heads and not settling for the 3s as they have done in the past. Yes, these last two OT games have been difficult, but they are getting there, because in times past they would just fold in the 4th and now they are actually fighting back... They are not winning yet, but I fully hope that the boys are learning something. Last year, our team had the problem of trying to rally back in the fourth quarter and it was always too little too late....now, our boys are rallying earlier in the fourth and they are given themselves a chance. Now, I know midst the trade rumors, it's hard to positive, but I think you guys should, because I think this team is just a little bit tired of being embarrassed and that's always a good head space to be in.

I keep saying. ATL matches up very well against us. If we are to meet them this off season, they will likely beat us again.

When you play duhon qrich baby at the same time in the fourth you are going to lose the game. hawks hit some ridiculous shots again tonight. jsmith played hard because of the allstar snub. I HATE Zaza!!!!!! he is a little biatch when he plays dwight.

I dont mind taking the 3 but I thought it was too quick. Jrich was way off balance on that shot, no wonder he missed....

I'm really disappointed in Dwight. He should have easily scored 30 this game. He was pretty quiet until the end of the game. Turk didn't have any focus. Meh.

We can blame Stan, but you lose games when you shoot 50% from the FT line and have 6 more turnovers than the other team. Dwight and Hedo together had 11 turnovers. Thats a problem.

Yep. They do. Funny thing is, they don't even have huge guys in the paint to hold Dwight down like Boston did a few years back. Remember facing Perkins, Davis, etc?

They just do though.

Joe Johnson alone is better than our entire back court and Josh Smith will destroy Hedo.

what's frustrating is that we're healthy and they're missing Horford (and Jamal is a Blazer) and we still cannot beat them.

Jameer and dwight sucked just as much as the rest of the team.

What the hell happend to jameer's shot? the one thing he could do well is make shots when he is open and now its gone and he can make a jum shot and he miss more open lay ups than he makes.

Dwight was better in the end but he was guarded by zaza all game and couldnt even get 20 points against him or at least get him in foul trouble since they dont even have a backup center.

What are you talking about?

Let's be honest here Atlanta had control of the game playing us the same way they've always played us....we have to do something else man....am i the only one that feels that way? I feel like we've been playing the same basketball for 3+ seasons....When is enough enough? When does Stan realize that we can actually push the ball on this team? When does he realize that maybe defense isn't our problem and it's the offense that's losing us games?

Last year when I watched Orlando play ATL during the regular season, I said to myself....."yeah, we're screwed if we see them in the playoffs," but this year, not so much. I honestly think the outcome will be different if we meet them in the playoffs--and that's with the thinking that Howard would still be in a Magic uniform if management don't trade him.

SVG should take the blame. Atlanta are doing the same offensive and defensive plays for more than 6 games against us. And we lose the same way .

Moreover they are our divisional rivals. This problem should be solved even in a single game.

I am starting to have suspects about SVG's coaching abilites. Boston games and this one should be written on behalf of SVG.

Stan says the same **** every post game interview but he never changes anything.

Uh what? You're more confident NOW?

Last season we we're a top seed that just got beat. NOW we're lucky if we even make the playoffs if we continue to see what we did tonight.
