Hawks are eviscerating Nets, lol!

Anyone who thinks Hawks aren't legit, needs to wake-up. With their ball-movement and team defense, they will be a trouble for majority of the teams.

The Nets are utter garbage, dude.

But I hear ya

Who is the best backup PG in the playoffs? Schroeder or Isaiah Thomas?

Currently, Isaiah Thomas.

But in terms of potential and long term, Dennis Schroder. I have been very impressed with him this year. Think, he can be a starting point guard in the league in a couple of years time.

They need a team like Chicago to hack the shit out of them.

Hawks look great. They move the ball on offense tremendously. I think the Cavs problem is they have too many of the same types of player. Too many guys who can't get to the basket and create shots. Hopefully next year we can get some more diversified bench guys with more athleticism.

I know. But, my point was that Hawks aren't just a regular season team like many were saying. The way they move the ball is outstanding. And, that kind of ball movement would trouble any team!

Never to win a playoff series with Clark playing that many minutes.

Yes. Thats the only weakness if we really have to dig something. They can be defeated down low. I remember Drummond and Monroe causing them a lot of problems.

Bulls gave up on Korver too quick. He struggled in the 2011 playoffs. Traded him after they were eliminated from the 2012 playoffs in the first round when Derrick tore his ACL. Worst part about the trade is they traded him for Kirk Hinrich and a trade exception that they let go to waste.

Hawks team defense is much better than any team in the east. If Cavs are going to beat Bulls or Hawks, they are going to have to shoot great because as we seen today, their defense is not very good.

Agree. Gotta make them play the post and just be very physical with them.

Man what happened to Deron Williams? Wasn't he a superstar while in Utah. He seems bored and doesn't even look like he wants to play.

The Nets are pure trash.

I would be very surprised if ATL loses more than 2 games going into the ECF and 1 or 0 losses would't surprise me at all. Too bad they didn't get Indiana or Chicago because one weakness they have is that they don't rebound well and Indiana/Chicago would have challenged them on the boards. The NETS cant rebound for shit. ATL traps so much on defense and is often out of position to defensive rebound. Would love ot see Love, TT, Moz, Shump and others take avail of that.

 

[redscoon]

Hard to gauge the Hawks because Brooklyn has no fire. Nobody does less with more than them.

 

[godfather]

Bold prediction: the Nets WILL win.... a game.

Jerry Sloan's system made him play to his potential. Many Jazz fan thought he was a bit of a big fish in small pond kinda player and Paul Pierce also touchd upon that. But, I just feel, its down to injuries. He has had way too many injuries there and hasn't really managed to play consistently for a good stretch of games!
