Because it rhymes with 'Olajuwon'.

Hawks are playing pretty good ball at the moment, but still there weakness is at the PG position, Calderon/bosh both have to come up big in order for us to Win.

Lets have a Injury-less game.

Go raps Go.

We have a chance over the next 7-8 games to make a serious run at 3rd in the east.

To do it, games like these are essential!

Looks like Horford wears lip gloss and plucks his eyebrows.

Joe Johnson and Josh Smith always end up burning us.. then again, they have no real answer for Bosh and Calderon.

...Hawks win by 4?

In the VC years, I always dreaded playing San Antonio, knowing that something bad was going to happen (usually to Vince). Now it seems the Hawks are our curse.

Just pray we get out of this healthy, with no scoreboard shenanigans.

I wonder who the crowd will boo more, Bargs or Horford?

Bargs just needs to find his jumper. Honestly, the rest of his problems on the floor look like nothing when he's burying treys. Something just doesn't look right out there for him though. I was at the game last night and watched him shooting at halftime. By my calculations he was approximately 2/23 shooting while warming up, about 1-11 from 3 and 1-12 inside the arc. I couldn't believe it. Something has gone wrong in his mechanics that they need to get in the film room and on the practice floor and fix. Unfortunately, I don't believe that Sam and his staff make any effort to notice and fix problems like this, so it will likely continue.
