Great start by the Hawks. Jeff Teague with 16pts, 8asts and 1TO at halftime. I wish he played this aggressive all the time.

Teague owned them tonight.

I personally would like to see us keep tonights lineup for a while. Tolliver just brings something defensively.

Good win vs a very good team.

You think the Grizz really miss Rudy Gay? I really don't understand that trade.

Nah, they are just adjusting.

And Hollins is WEIRDLY running the P&R so much now when he should just be going to his post guys. I am not really sure what the hell he is doing there. But hey...

We caught them at a good time. That team is about to be torn down. Randolph is still on the trading block; their coach is angling to be fired. Talking back to new ownership has that effect.

Regardless of what any of our thoughts on Gay as a player might be, he was very important to that team. The decision to part ways is all financial. The franchise posted a $25 million loss last year. Unfathomable for a team that's never made it past the 2nd round of the playoffs.

By the end of the decade, there will be only a dozen or so MAX players in this league.

As it should be.

This is what it takes to keep the NBA profitable going forward.

I really like having Korver at the SG spot defensively. their are so many scrub SG in the NBA, i would rather have him try to keep up with SG rather than a super athletic SF, which there are alot of in the league. I wouldn't mind having Tolliver or Zaza starting and getting big minutes once everybody is healthy.
