Hawks are leading Knicks 110/95 with 5.03 to play.
Harrington 35 & Johnson 32 points. Al is 6/6 and Joe 6/7 on 3's. Team is 12/15, that's 80%!!!
Excellent shooting & I'm guessing some pretty average defence by Knicks (what a surprise that is!)

Seems to me that the Hawks are starting to work things out a bit, they have been putting some good W's on the board. Maybe a bit of confidence is starting to rub off on the team.

A few more games like this and the Atlanta Hawks might have to be the official NBA team of Hoops SA. All thanks to cheeze!

This is officially the first Atlanta Hawks thread NOT started by cheezeburger. U gotta remember they were playing New York man, they couldnt have done that against anyone else. Crawfords shooting was amazing aswell, i dno what he finished on but he had 7-7 from the field and 4-4 3pointers and 3-3 from the stripe at one stage.

If we follow history Cheeze they wil probably trade Al for a lemon and end up in a worse position come seasons end!

'well surely management can see we need a pg.'
Why didnt they see that on draft day - Chris Paul, Deron Williams, Raymond Felton....

Look at Marvin Williams, a waste! Makes me wonder how Bogut would be going if he went to the hawks? Surely more than 3 or 4 shots per game!
Maybe averaging 12-9?
Sorry to sway a tad off topic!

don't think they will trade Al until the Feburary trade deadline.
I don't really see the Artest/Harrington thing working or going down unless Atlanta does a Sheed thing with Artest and keeps him for one game and then trades him again for more pieces.
The 2006 draft is actually pretty good for PG, Gibson, Rondo, Collins, all which could all go in the Top 10. Whilst none of them are a Chris Paul, they are all handy PG's.
Hawks should take Aldridge with their 1st pick (regardless if it's the 1st, 2nd, 3rd whatever) and then trade Harrington to whoever picks either Gibson/Rondo (i'd go with Gibson) and fillers/future picks (hawks owe Suns a few first rounders). Remember in 2006 the Hawks should also get Andersen from Europe to help fill in the Centre possie.
Something to dribble about Cheeze,
PG: Gibson/Lue
SG: JJ/Salim/Childress
SF: J Smith/Marvin
PF: Aldridge/Marvin/Batista
C: Zaza/Andersen
Then in 2007 they go into the Greg Oden sweepstake.

Those damn Hawks just beat the Nuggets in OT. On a 2 game win streak and 4-6 in the last 10.

Watch the game. The Hawks are fun to watch. Lots of dunks for them and against them. They should keep Harrington. Try and trade Marvin Williams.

That's an achievement considering Iverson IS one of the best guards in the league, probably in the top 3. Yes Joe Johnson is in terrific form. Shame he is in the East this year lol.
