Goat of the Game 

Post#1 » by ATL Boy » Sat Nov 10, 2012 3:02 am

We could've had this, just wow.

Former Goats:
Larry Drew (1)
Kyle Korver (1)

Notes: Lou is on this list because he went 0-6; Stevenson was 1-7, 1-5 from 3 with 3 wide open misses; Josh couldn't hit a Free throw and was taking some really stupid shots; Larry Drew benched our hot hands when we really could've used them most, like he wanted us to lose, I'm surprised he didn't bench Teague after he started our rally.

sorry only 1 vote per person, but I think that we'd all vote for both LD and Josh if 2 votes were allowed, I did not like either of them in this one

I voted for Lou, but admittedly went too fast as I didn't notice Drew's name on the list. Smith had some terrible shots and couldn't get many shots to fall tonight but I thought he played Lebron pretty tough defensively and he was very active on the offensive boards. The box score will only show 3 offensive boards for Smith but he drew 4 or 5 fouls because of his activity on the offensive boards.

Lou contributed nothing at all throughout the game. I have never seen him be so passive. I was really impressed with Lou in the first 2 games and thought we made a steal by signing him for $5 mil/year but the last 2 games have shown me why he was only able to get $5 million/year.

The ultimate GOAT is the pathetic excuse for a coach Larry Drew. Morrow and Teague have got to see more PT. I also think Ivan should get more PT. Tolliver may stretch the floor more than Ivan, but Ivan contributes more than enough in all other areas to make up for his lack of outside scoring.

Dude, it's gotta be Josh.

He led the team in missed FGs, missed FTs and turnovers.
In fact, he had more missed FGs (13) than any other Hawks player had attempts.

In fact, Josh had more total shot attempts from the field (19) than any other player in the game.
On either team!

smh...we gotta get rid of this guy. We were supposed to have a free flowing, balanced offense with JJ gone.

Josh might be our best player, but he's far from the best scorer.

PS He has yet to shoot 50% from the field in any game this season.

It has to be Larry Drew. Horrible rotations. Pulled the hot players and kept them on the bench in crucial minutes. There is no reason why Teague was on the bench when we needed him. He plays Korver way too much when he is cold and loves Harris for some unknown reason even though he tries to do everything.

I can't see why Morrow only played 15 minutes when he was our best player yesterday (other than Teague).

I blame 2 people for the loss Larry drew and josh smith. Larry drew substitutions didn't make sense to at all last night. Morrow didn't play in the 2nd half after having a good 1st half. Teague didnt play 30 mins. He left his bench out there too long. He is showing me that he is not a head coach and he should have been mike brown a long time ago.
Josh smith just played terrible. It seem like he don't like it when other teammates are shinning. I think he wants to be the man so bad that he will do whatever it takes. Teague was 8 for 7 and it was Teague game to lose. But he just had to try to win the game and take the big shot. We will never win with josh take the most shots on the team. He is not our best offense player. What he must learn is he can still be the best player without being the person who scores the most points. He has the ability to dominate the game on the defensive end. And he can shut down the most of the power forwards in the league. He cares too much about his offense game. Until he does that he will continue to be the problem in Atlanta
