Your comparing the hawks to teams like the bulls pacers heat and spurs...

Hawks will be crushed by the sixers. If they beat the sixers your statistical point would then be correct. If not it’s an incorrect correlation.

Ewing = warrior

Except the really big game then he chokes lol

Has I mentioned, people make an inaccurate declarative statements and then the follow up is changing the criteria, moving the bar, adding disclaimers, explanations and disqualifiers etc. I go back to the original statement:

When did Patrick Ewing in the 90’s ever have an abysmal series like this? Answer is never.

And for the record, I love Ewing and he had MANY big moments in the playoffs. Just want to be clear I'm not trashing Ewing. Just wanting to clear up a misstatement.

Oh and for the record Randle is shooting 27% from the field in this series. Please cite me all the playoffs series Ewing shot 27% or less

Lol!!! You basically confirmed what I said. Ewing had a couple of series shooting in the mid-30% and a significant drop in his scoring average, but since it doesn't precisely match Randle's percentage the bar is moved and it doesn't count? Come on dude, all this just to not admit you misspoke? lol

The premise of your comment was Ewing didn't have playoff series as poor as what Randle is currently having and that's incorrect.

You got nothing. Ewing never shot anywhere near as poorly as Randle has in this series. If Randle shot 36% we probably win game 1

Literally who the **** cares? Randle has not declared himself to be Ewing, only you have and it's embarrassing.

You'all are making some comparisons as if Apples and Oranges are the same thing and thinking this is even remotely interesting or relevant?

Ewing was a warrior. Randle was our warrior this season and has had an eye opening playoffs for him. He also had a **** regular season last year and bounced the **** back.

Seriously, you guys are acting like some whiny fair weather fans who think Rome was built in a day.

It's not how badly you fail but what you do afterwards and how it unfolds the next time around. Much less relevant is how badly your arguments are

Martin It's the Playoffs, so things are magnified.

No one Remembers how well Starks played up until that 2-18 game, that's what they remember the most

No one remembers how Ewing carried us right up until the Missed Finger Roll.

The LJ 4 point play, if that was a regular season game, no one would remember that, same for the Allan Houston Game winner.

If Randle went 1 for 20 and had 12 turnovers but hit the game winner, no one would remember how poor he played, he would be a HERO.

No one cares how you win in the Playoffs, but everybody cares how you lose.
