They're 4-0, and the only undefeated team left in the east. Commit to the Indian.

Sorry guys. The Hawks are the Utah Jazz of the East; they'll make the playoffs every year, usually getting to the second round, ultimately losing out to better teams. They've been that way even going back to the 80s with the Dominique/Doc Rivers teams. They'll always be just good enough to get you beat.

The Mavs have at least got to the NBA Finals. Remind me again when the Hawks have done that.

that bring up an interesting point

people (perhaps deservedly so) skewered the Hawks for resigning Joe Johnson to a max deal

What about Dirk? He signed the same type of deal 4/80 and has never led them to anything except a choke job in the Finals. in all seriousness though haven't the Mavs proved, as they are currently constructed, that they too are only capable of advancing a round or two? I'm not saying that Joe Johnson is better or that i'd rather have him than Dirk, only that the contract was equally ridiculous seeing as they're going nowhere with him as their centerpiece

the difference is the Mavs underachieve. The Hawks, in recent years, have overachieved if anything. do you need to be reminded the Mavs were only the 3rd team to lose to a 8 seed as the 1?

and by the way advancing to the Finals isn't really some sort of achievement to be proud of. they choked

Either way, the Hawks and the Mavs are about the same deal. Neither team is going to win anything in the NBA. So whether they are overachievers or underachievers they are both losers and probably always will be.

you are correct- neither of them will ever win anything

but look at the teams Dallas has constructed over the years to go w/ Dirk- Marion, Kidd, Nash, Terry- I would argue they've had far more talent than the Hawks have

So does that make you feel better about the Hawks?

well it makes me feel good to know they've maximized their talent. you're right, it's not very satisfying to realize your team will never win a title as constructed.

No it isn't. I have really been more of a Dirk fan than a Mav fan, so when Dirk is done there I will probably not care much about them anymore. At least I have that to look forward to.

You have probably already answered this somewhere around here, but how did you get to be a Hawk fan?

I think it was around the time Josh Smith came into the league, i really liked his game. I just kinda grew to like the rest of the team from there- I always liked Horford's game too. I guess I would say the NBA is my favorite so just from watching so many out of town teams there's bound to be players that I like. Just in general I like most of the players on the Hawks, really Bibby is the only one I never really cared for. I just liked their style of play, that's all. I thought they were a fun, energetic and up-and-coming team and that Celtics series was really one of the funnest playoff matchups in the last few years. Unfortunately they're probably no longer up and coming but have kind of hit their ceiling.

Oh ok, so it has been fairly recent then. For some reason I was thinking you were a long time Hawks fan.

I was just reading a rumor page a couple hours ago that said Josh Smith may get traded. What are your thoughts on that?

yeah no I actually hated their teams in the 90's
Mookie, Dikembe, Steve Smith....horrible uniforms and boring teams

that's very interesting about Josh, i hadn't heard that....i just saw it now about him or Kaman headed to Detroit. Good god would that suck. Atlanta is so fucked up. They're putting him on the block because of the financial burden of signing big contracts according to Yahoo. Well geez morons, maybe you should have thought about that before giving JJ 20mil per. Smith's deal I think is very reasonable- he makes 11, 12 and 13 mil the next 3 years. That's a pretty good value for a defensive force. I wouldn't mind if they traded him to a team I liked..but good god the Pistons?

You don't want the cancer patient jacking up 3's for the Hawks?

also, Villanueva is a bitch
i hope someone makes him pay for that

I wouldn't call him a bitch, I'm pretty much indfifferent to the whole story. I'm sure Garnett and other players have said much worse on the court through the history of basketball. Maybe if he didn't suck so much at basketball he could talk a little trash of his own.

he's a bitch for whining about it. like you (and others) have said- it's part and parcel of playing in the NBA. it's trash talk. Garnett is known for it. I have no issue with what he said. its not like they were both standing in line for communion and Garnett said that, they were playing basketball.

and yes, Villanueva does suck. he should be more concerned with practicing and improving his game than getting offended by trash talk

are the stars aligning today? i agree with you

I know, we better be careful. People will start thinking we like each other.

you didn't like the cookie monster?!?!

the 80's hawks were the fun team.

No love for Alan Henderson? He was the past day Tayshaun prince or Luol Deng...Play some D, tease you that he might become a 20 point scorer yet always be a 14 ppg man.
