Atlanta Hawks whooped Wizards ass

[AVXL]

I don't believe Horford would have made a difference. He wouldn't have made you champions
And while you looking good right now, its highly unlikely you'll maintain this all year and into the playoffs
No team holds it down like that except the 72 win bulls. You putting yourself in that realm bruh?
Or are you benefitting from a weaker league overall where a bunch of teams are just terrible
I think once every team is deep into the season, the truth will then shine like it always does
You have a shot. But I don't believe your team is built for a title. You know this
Don't just say Horford, there are other areas you have to improve at come playoff time
Against a GOOD team? Shelvin Mack gonna cost you. Milsap never took a team anywhere in the playoffs
Teague shined. I just don't see you dudes as great at anything. Just all around good. But are you good enough?
No hate, but hell no

With Horford we beat Indy and who knows how that matchup vs. WAS would've unfolded. The way we've been playing vs. the top teams in BOTH conferences THIS yr this team can definitely make the Finals

Hawks best team in the nba

Question is .......can they keep up the shooting

when our shots are as wide open as our system gets them, why not?

Just baffles me how people will look to any and every excuse in the book to not accept the Hawks as a contender.

It's real cute what yall doing

But it's still going to be a bulls vs cavs ecf ....

wait wait, the same Bulls team that just got handled by the Wizards on Friday is ahead of the team that stomped the Wiz by 31 today?

and the Cavs

 

[AVXL]

Wall, Beal and Pierce is more than enough core perimeter scoring.

The point I'm making is that all the heavyweight teams in the East, yall probably have the lowest potential/chances of the bunch. That doesn't mean yall aren't capable of beating any team in the East in a series, I just have more doubts on yall going THREE rounds than I do for the others. Yall have to have more things go your way than the Wizards, Bulls and Cavs do.

What have the Wiz or Cavs proven that they're capable of going on a longer playoff run than us?

When was the last time the Bulls actually made a playoff run doe? Who knows if Rose will be able to hold up come playoff time? You sound like you're just basing the playoffs off of preseason predictions

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

you're confusing the point tho breh, teague has easily been our most clutch player down the stretch, and leads the team in points, assists and 4th quarter scoring (where he's 6th in the league)

You're speaking as though Wall isn't doing the exact same thing for the Wizards.

your point about wall being the best player, and most important player, on the wizards just reinforces how solid and deep this hawks squad is in comparison...if wall has a bad game the wizards are lost, if teague has a bad game someone else will step up (millsap, horford, korver, carroll, schroder, etc)

Which is exact reason why Teague isn't doing 'just as much, if not more' for his team than Wall is doing for his. There's very few players in the league that are doing as much for their team as Wall does for the Wizards.

just look at today's game...teague wasn't hitting shots, but we had 8 players in double figures and he still had 11 and 10 in comparison to wall's 15 and 8

you are looking too much into "star power" instead of results

You need 'star power' to survive in the playoffs and not only that, you need playoff-tested players too.

 

[Bledswole]

9 out of the last 10 NBA Champions have finished top 3 best records in the league....................

Hawks Top 2 records in the league right now

Quit hatin you fukk nikkas

2nd longest playoff streak in the league next to pops

nba fans are the worst when it comes to loving names and not production.. even we were guilty with d hoe and Chris Paul

What production though? We're only half way through the regular season.

Look at all the teams in the past decade (and we could go back further if you wanted to ) that have made it into the Finals What's one thing 99% of them have in common - star players.

 

[FreshFromATL]

#Hawkset got these nikkas fumbling over themselves out here LMAO. @Gil Scott-Heroin going for WOAT poster of the year already

They also all have finished with top 3 records in the league, Hawks top 2 right now
