Re: 1/6/14 Hawks at Nets
They're on a 14-0 run as a result of some of the worst officiating I've ever seen

Re: 1/6/14 Hawks at Nets
And, after a 14-0 run, aided by numerous muggings by the Nets, the refs remember to call fouls on the Nets.
My mother told me, she said, "Elwood, to make it in this world you either have to be oh, so clever or oh, so pleasant." Well, for years I was clever; I recommend pleasant.

Re: 1/6/14 Hawks at Nets
Nice thinking by Teague: realizing that the refs are giving us make-up calls, drives for the and-one.

Brand has no spring in his legs anymore. Gets the rebound under the basket and is scared to go up against Reggie Evans.

Re: 1/6/14 Hawks at Nets
I have Millsap and Teague on my fantasy team tonight. They are talented enough to do whatever they want every possession but instead they defer and play lazy. It's really pathetic especially against this Nets team.

In the 1st half, the refs let the Nets play the way they wanted to in the 1st qtr, then let us play in the 2nd. They're, hopefully, following that same formula, as they let the Nets beat the snot out of us in the 3rd. We only had 15 points that qtr, and a lot of bruises.

Nope, the refs are still calling the slow, mug'em game. FTs are about the same but their defense really appreciates the freedom to pound. We're whining too much, even Rathburn and Dominique are crying every possession.

Re: 1/6/14 Hawks at Nets
We're fighting. This team has heart.
As I was about to praise the return of Teague, we take the lead on a steal by Korver and a great pass to Carroll. Maybe the game will go the way it did in the 1st half.

Re: 1/6/14 Hawks at Nets
Man, Reggie Evans is a beast rebounder, can Ferry please ask the nets about his availability.

Wow, Joe hits a 3, Livingston gets a steal and dunk, then we travel.

The old Joe Johnson has arrived and he's killing us. We're playing BKN's game, they pound us on defense, then Joe goes iso.

We're doing some funky things on defense: Korver on Garnett, Teague on Joe. We're fighting.

Millsap with a great steal, then misses the layup, then Teletovic hits a 3.

Re: 1/6/14 Hawks at Nets
We waited till the end of the shotclock so many times in that 4th quarter. I can see us lose our upcoming 5 games, the worst part is that the nets have caught fire and are only 1 game back of the 8 seed.

Coach crying to the ref, who is very animated in his response.
Next possession, Teague's bumped off as he goes to the basket, WE GRAB Joe Johnson but the refs refused to let us kill the clock. Budenholzer goes out on the court, barking at the ref, who ignored him.

That last sequence was amazing. The refs basically refused to let them stop the clock.
