TFoA Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 The Hawks didn't lose to the Cavs or anything, but they had a pretty bad week in their own right.Tuesday: Lost by 30 to the Sixers at home. Second home loss of 30 or more in about 4 weeks (lost by like a gazillion (100-59 to be exact) against the Hornets in late January).Saturday: The Bobcats completed their greatest comeback in franchise history tonight against the Hawks. Came back from 22 down to win the game at the buzzer thanks to Stephen Jackson.I can't even remember the Hawks having a bad week like this in the 13-win season! That's how bad they looked this week. Terrible way to go into a 7-game, 16-day road trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 The Hawks didn't lose to the Cavs or anything...What a difference a year makes eh? This time last season the Cavs were sporting the best record in the NBA. Now? They're the "well at least we didn't lose to" team. On a different note; I'm beginning to really like NBA TV. Seems like they carry a lot of games that don't feature the "marquee" teams. I like that. It's nice to be able to watch some of the "less appealing" NBA games. All roads lead to Dollar General.

Drakonius26 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I can't believe the Spurs lost to the 76ers of all teams, but they were killing it tonight. 45-9, and hopefully this can be the year of them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loogodude90 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Somewhat fun fact, if it hasn't already been mentioned: Despite the Cavs breaking their losing streak, they still haven't won a game in regulation since November 27th.

Drakonius26 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Speaking of road teams... it looks like Miami will have an easy time of it at Boston today. I would expect the Heat to win big, or at least pull away in the 4th Quarter against the severely-depleted Celtics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team can't even lose right.

Lights Out Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I tried to support Vinny Del Negro this season, but he needs to go. I've had it with his horrible substitutions, his terrible clock management, his love of the three-guard lineup, and his bizarre post-time out plays. Whatever he's saying at halftime isn't working, as the team ALWAYS starts out the second half slow. Losing back-to-back games against two of the sorriest teams in the league is just the icing on the cake. Olshey and Sterling, PLEASE fire Del Negro and do what you should have done this summer: hire Dwayne Casey. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Don't give me the whole "It's the Clippers" crap. This mess of a roadtrip has nothing to do with the name on the front of the jersey and everything to do with injuries and indefensibly-bad coaching. You can't really blame Sterling for either one of those. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Especially if it's true that he hired him because Jerry Reinsdorf called in a favor to stave off a lawsuit against the Bulls.

Drakonius26 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Well, in other news... I can't believe the Celtics managed to hold off the Heat. I guess, LeBron and his friends won't be coming out of the East this year, and it'll be a Spurs/Celtics matchup in the Finals. Exactly the way it should be, since if you guys caught their earlier matchup this year, it was phenomenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
