Now which Nuggets will we see, the struggling ones, or the Shaw's gone inspired ones?

GARBAGE. That is the only word I have to describe this first half. We can't buy a basket, we can't get a call, we can't play defense, but hey at lest we can allow Denver to shoot nearly 70% for the first half :D

This is really bad. The Hawks just started their road trip and they are getting stomped by a way sub .500 team. Doesn't bode well.

It's like someone adjusted the sliders in a videogame. They aren't even taking good shots...just shoot....make...rinse....repeat.

Well at least I got to see the bench come in and get some solid minutes. Three point shooting bigs continue to give us trouble.

Raptors (the last one), Bucks, Nuggets. Looks like we have one more to spare.

I don't think we have played that bad since the loss against the bucks back in December. But Thats just my opinion. Only positives to take away were Thabo looking good in warm ups and Korvers shooting.

Im pretty sure it was a huge effort issue. I think the hawks are becoming content with having the 1st seed in the east. I didnt get to watch the full game, but just looking at some of the highlights I saw multiple blow bys with ZERO effort to even rotate over.

The way we defended the pick and roll was so frustrating, same way Cleveland was hurting us early with Love. After a certain point you have to adjust the defensive game plan. Come on Coach Bud.... :/

We were just helping the Nuggets catch Brooklyn. Stroke of genius, I'd say.
