The Josh Smith Bowl

Post #3 » by **Hawk Eye** » Fri Jan 9, 2015 8:25 pm

These are the two hottest teams in the league right now. The best matchup battle will be the front courts. Millsap/Horford (versatility) vs Monroe/Drummond (size). Never thought I'd say this but I think this game will be a "must see" for not only Hawks & Pistons fans but all other fans as well! Lets go Hawks!

BEST. LINE. EVER.

Here is an original production from our brothers in arms over in DET.

Equally hilarious:

I came by to have a look as i do before most games, but i couldn't leave without giving this a repost and And1. :lol:

It's perfect.

Should be a solid game tonight. Looking forward to the frontcourt battle. Good luck guys.

Love when Detroit is relevant in the NBA, being from Beantown, those were the best games ive ever watched. Just BRUTAL physical games.

Good luck man! Glad to see you guys doing well with that talent

I wonder if we'll see both Brand and Antic for extra muscle.

A brawl 10x worse than the one between the Pistons-Pacers will breakout if those are the stakes. :lol:

We are going to lose again someday, and today may be the day

Post #15 » by **Hawk Eye** » Sat Jan 10, 2015 12:50 am

Right off the bat you can see that their size is going to be a problem for us. Great start by both squads though so far.

Post #16 » by **Hawk Eye** » Sat Jan 10, 2015 1:01 am

Very solid 1st quarter. Let's keep it up!

Post #17 » by **Hawk Eye** » Sat Jan 10, 2015 1:07 am

3 quick fouls on Dennis...

Post #18 » by **ATL Boy** » Sat Jan 10, 2015 1:07 am

Dennis is out of control. 3 fouls in the last minute of the quarter and he gave up 6 free points. We can't be doing that.

SBM · Post #19 » by **SBM** » Sat Jan 10, 2015 1:08 am

The FT line saved them in the 1st quarter.

Post #20 » by **Hawk Eye** » Sat Jan 10, 2015 1:15 am

Woah. We're hot!

On a side note, what the crap is Korver doing? Hes taken like three runner/floater shots and that is NOT his game. I've only seen like a handful of those all season from him and he's already done it three times??
