keep hope alive. lol. For the first time in a while i wonder what it would be like if we never get there and end up like the hawks but we'll be alright. I'm not completely sold on Big Al yet. Good signing and i like how he fits and how versatile he is but his game at the same time we seem to be lacking something. Brad is a good coach and will figure it out. None of these guys are Pierce, KG and Ray or Bird, Mchale and Parish yet though.I also don't understand why Smart wasn't on Harden. The consensus has always been that we are going to get there though and I've always felt taht way. We are 21 games in. Just something about how this team has played so far i don't like though. We coast.They had James Harden we didn't. We can't afford to coast when they have Harden and we don't.Teh nba isn't like it used to be where you could assemble a team with a certain identity. some of these guys are what they are.Horford is a really good player but when we aren't doing anything to separate ourselves from other teams we are basically what we are. Brad needs to work his magic or something. We have a lot of road games coming up where hopefully we wake up.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.
had to take a final, so i missed the game...twitter is saying the refs screwed us over apparently? i saw the horford miss, that was tough to watch, but, it is what it is...would you recommend i try to find a replay of this one? was it a good game?

I'm not mad they let the call stand on the 3/2, I just don't get how the ref called it a two live! no way you call that a two by eye! i have seen feet clearly over the line called a 3 and you call it a 2? no way in hell you call that a 2 if that was Harden or Curry.
He was doing better than AB lol, at least when harden pulls up he can contest better and it was true that harden wasn't THAT hot when Smart switched in for AB on him
Did you guys see Marc Davis NOT EVEN LOOK AT THE MONITOR? he looked at the big screen when making his determination that the shot was a 2. He never once looked at the monitor. I hope Coach writes a letter to the league about that.

Brad needs to work his magic or something. We have a lot of road games coming up where hopefully we wake up.My thinking is that so far this season we are counter-punchers. We are responders. We aren't the same team who, like last year, set the tone of the game and put the opposition on their heals. Not sure why that is. It's not Al's fault. My sense is that Bradley and Crowder both came into the season a bit complacent and a bit entitled. But that's just my sense.

Bradley is an overrated defender and struggled badly against Harden. Smart was the only defender keeping him remotely in check
