joe johnson is a ballstopping chuck

the guy has skills but this guy completely stops all ball movement and dribble out the clock looking for his shot. now, b/c of his skill, he does get some mismatches which he could exploit, but watching the hawks, they literally have a bunch of guys standing around watching him operate for alot of the game. this is so weird b/c this is typically seen with bigs but not sg's.

jason kidd is toast

they do have a good record but this guy is finished. you can play off him all day since he can't hit a jumper and he rarely drives anymore off the pick.

Its hard to get on Joe Johnson too tough given how well the Hawks are playing.

I think the Hawks are fool's gold no better than a second round playoff team (which isn't bad) but they are not an elite team in this league imo.

And yet, they sit atop their division in the Western Conference. How can we explain this?

I disagree. I think they can beat any team in the east other than the Magic. Jamal was a hell of a pick up. He's perfect in this role.

horford and smith give the hawks a tough frontcourt that control the boards down the stretch of games. and smith is a freak athlete that explodes to the ball and can block shots at any time. they play good defense and that's the reason why they win games.

again, it's very weird watching them play b/c it's basically clear out for joe time alot of the game. crawford will be crawford - on one game, off another. i wonder how it will all translate in the postseason. if they get slot 3,4,5 - they have a good shot to advance. one thing about the hawks too - they have yet to experience any type of injury so far.

anyone else catch the second half of the Cavs-Grizz game on nbatv? zach randolph is a helluva lot better than this board gives him credit for. grizz are a fun team to watch. found myself rooting hard for them to beat the King last night.

i really like charlotte's lineup. their talent level is about the same as ours, but the way that talent fits together is so much better designed than anything we've had since the days of camby and spree.
