Good chance to catch up with the worst team in the league, not enough offense to win this one.

Are we sure Bertans won't start? That reported starting lineup is scary bad. McRae iso's on every play.

Another must-lose game. Atlanta is really good at harvesting ping pong balls though, so I'm just not feeling confident we have the skills to really go out there and grab an L.

The Germans occupied part of France during WWII, including Paris & all the industrial North of the country. The rest of the country remained "free" in a titular sense but was run by a collaborationist puppet government headed by Marshall Philippe Petain & was in effect dictated to by the Germans.

That seems like a rather random remark for a Hawks/Wizards game thread. :wink:

Gary Payton Jr. with his dads signature chew following the dunk, subtle, but I recognized it immediately.

Smith, McRae, Brown, Bertans, AP is easily our most fun lineup to watch

In a sane world, that would be our starting lineup except perhaps with Mahinmi in place of Pasecniks.
