HAWKS Just wow!

[tristan20]

WOW, simply amazing.

Giving teams the beat down.

They have won 19-of-21 and are 8-2 against the West. Whats in the water down in A town?

[clipperboy24]

They look like a real team, Spurs style. Hard nosed defense, scrappy on both sides and good shooting and ball movement. Crushed the clippers in the 3rd quarter and really the whole second half

[fullmetal]

Coach Bud learned from the best.

[crackberry]

horford making everyone better!

[BoxBreaker72]

I'm looking at their roster and I really can't figure it out lol. Of course there is talent there, but I wouldn't expect them to be where they are just by looking at the names.

Just an old fashioned great TEAM with chemistry. 2004 Pistons come to mind.

2004 had big names but like this year's hawks it's not about the names. They are defending their butts off.

[bdrr]

Sounds like time for new ownership to fire Danny Ferry to appease the race baiting brigade!

[GoClips!]

Yeah, they played fantastically tonight. Teague is incredibly underrated and so is pretty much everyone on that team. Milsap may not block shots, but his activity and ability to steal the ball at the 4 spot is special. It would be an interesting and incredibly boring final to see San Antonio Vs. San Antonio East.

[bbplaya11]

Some nice underated players on that bench, thabo brings good defense and toughness and schroder and scott have both been nice surprises

[Hallco]

I have been a Hawks fan since moving to Georgia in 1996. This is the most unselfish, everyone is equal, someone different seems to step up every game, Hawks team I have ever watched! No flash or "highlight films'...just chemistry and willingness work together for the betterment of the team using the system coach Bud has implemented. Very refreshing!! :) :) :)

[spurs50fan]

What makes it more impressive is you can't name an MVP candidate on this team. Just results.

Very pleasant surprise

[bankdawg]

Hawks fever is spreading in GA, this may get like 1991 braves around here

[derotter]

Korver is arguably the best SG in the game (with Butler), what a season that dude is having :)!

He is flirting with an incredible 50/50/95 season, currently at 50% FG, 51.7% 3FG. 94% FT, this is insane.

Millsap, Horford, Teague, Carroll, Sefolosha and the German Rondo are very solid too, and they have a great coach.

We all ready for a Hawks/Warriors finals :flex:

I'm gonna be pretty disappointed if he isn't an All-Star. He deserves some recognition.

Still annoyed that the Bulls traded him for nothing.

[lindeman79]

Does anyone know why Payne isn't playing?

[tristan20]

Wow took out Memphis tonight, MVTeague time lol

[ninjacookies]

Teague is a beast...he just needs to be consistent and be assertive every night. There's no reason why he shouldn't be putting down 20+ a night with at least 7 dimes. Hawks bench is also very deep, and Carroll is a defensive beast.

I still just can't picture them getting far in the playoffs because they don't really have that superstar go-to guy when the game is on the line (one could argue Teague...but I'm not sure he's there just yet)...but they will probably surprise some people come postseason.

[JMarchand1981]

Wow took out Memphis tonight, MVTeague time lol

Crushing the east is one thing. Beating another good team from the west is a statement game. This team is legit.

[hotbox]

And they'll only get better when they swap first rounders with the Nets in the upcoming draft.

Wooo

[realreodeal]

Pistons had a 6 game winning streak going into Dallas as did they. The Pistons smoked them in Dallas. Up next Atlanta. How ironic that both teams are soooooo much better off for having gotten rid of Josh Smith????

[kairi-2008]

Their style won't get them through the finals this year, but next year, if they hold it together, they will be dangerous.

Whats wrong with the style? Its winning games lol

[Rareairx23]

+1
other than the bulls I really dont see another team putting up a huge challenge. Maybe the wizards but the cavs need to get it together, and im not sure im a believer of the raptors yet

[thepinoymamba]

Jeff Teague and Paul Millsap should be in the all-star Game... Watch them Play last Monday Live.. Jeff outplayed Cp3 big time while Millsap even with his 6'7" out played Clippers Bigs.

[Dwade Collector]

The Hawks are a very deserving team, I hope they can make a deep playoff run this year, they've earned it

[malone32]

right, following the hawks to because of your german guy Dennis Schröder on the team

[dasiegel]

i'll give it up. the hawks are just a well coached efficient, unit. very good and much better than i had given them credit for, especially coming off that creepy offseason.

[BBallCT]

Teague might be the most underrated PG in the league. I thought it was Conley but man...

[bigcwd2000]

I have to say, I watched the second half of the Hawks vs. Wizards last night and they just dominated them down the stretch. It was impressive to watch. They hit 16/31 three pointers. Their defense looks great too. It's amazing to think they have now won 22 of their last 24 games. I hope they can keep it up.

[Braswell10]

Wow, I thought the Wizards could have won that one. Hawks are playing great! I still think that the only teams in the east that can beat them are Washington or the Toronto.

[tristan20]

Blew out OKC, 10-0 against teams in the West.

15 Win streak. Such great team effort

[LuckySlayer]

These guys are on fire..everyone's chipping in. What a game vs okc!

[daeve]

the showdown is Feb 6th when GS comes to ATL. I can't see them losing until then, and I'm not sure theyre gonna lose that one either.

[atoaz12]

Was in Phillips last night. Place was bananas!! :)!
