Game 8 | Atlanta Hawks (5-3) @ Cleveland Cavaliers (4-3) | November 15, 2014 | 7:30PM EST

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I'm thoroughly pissed that James Jones isn't in right now.
 
Dion has been active as I've ever seen him tonight on D though... has resulted in turnovers and some easy baskets....
 
I feel like something was said to Dion after the last sequence he complained about not getting fouled. He's been playing phenomenal basketball since then.
 
Dion has six assist, and three steals. This is his third HC and a totally different offensive scheme. Can he settle in some and learn a little more before we write him off?

It's crazy how everyone is willingly ready to just give up on this dude.
 
we need to score 130 tonight to have a 4-game win streak where we have avg 120 pts... yea avg 120 pts... awesome
 
Is James Jones still on the freakin team? Like, I never see him even on the bench when they cut to shots on the bench. And I can't remember the last time he was in a game. Pre season? I don't know, nobody ever mentions him.

FREE JAMES JONES.

Dion gets frustrated that he got hacked, just like LeBron did earlier in the game. LeBron did just as much to get a T, but he's LeBron, so he didn't get a call. Dion has played a great game on both sides of the ball.

Sometimes I seriously wonder if people watch games or box scores, Dion just had 2 or 3 possessions where he got the hockey assist or the pass that led to the hockey assist. He's done this all freaking night.

I was a huge Dion apologist last year, but at this point I feel like we are watching two different games.

He sticks out like a sore thumb when he is out there. He completely has killed the momentum / beautiful ball movement we had on 5 different occasions this game. He has failed to finish at the rim 3 times, and he has complained and pouted when the team is up 30.

Throw a T on top of that. I just don't see how he can have such poor body language when winning by 30.

Re-watch this game I challenge you. Watch only dion and don't follow the ball. He has complained / shrugged / pouted so many times I lost count. Mind boggling to me this should be extremely exciting for him winning and playing on a good team.

I think he is actually playing a decent game. I've only seen him take a couple long two's that were bad shots. 9 points, 6 assists, 4 steals... that is a good line for him.

Hey, I'm with you man, I love the way he's been playing tonight, and so should Dion. He shouldn't get frustrated when he's playing that well and we're up by 28 points. but then again. that's his personality and it's part of what makes him such an interesting player.
 
And another fabulous assist by Dion.
