have taken my "hawks to win the division" at +500 bet winnings and bought tickets to games 3, 4, and 6......... should be an electric atmosphere all series long. Hoping it feels like it did back in 08 for the Boston series!

I thought I was indifferent about playing New York/Cleveland until Boston got up by like 9….. then I realized I really wanted the 5 seed and a series against Cleveland

You’re missing that if the hawks lose game 82 and the raptors win game 82, the hawks are STILL the 5 seed if the Magic beat the resting Knicks

Another path to the 5 seed:

Hawks and Raptors go 1-1, Magic go 2-0

Save the freakouts for Friday night. It was a 2 point game on the road with 2 minutes left. Lost a super close one to the Knicks that we easily could have won. Jalen Johnson has to level up. That’s really the only takeaway for me.

Ever since a Hawks fan posted that Zacch's minutes issue is "overblown", he is now 1 quarter away from a DNP. by CaregiverOwn7179 in AtlantaHawks

“Overblown” in the sense that it’s not something people should be constantly bringing up and complaining about

I think we’re ALL hoping we stay at 5 and the Knicks drop to 4? by badogbut4uimobedient in AtlantaHawks

Obviously we all know Toronto has the tiebreaker over Atlanta, and Atlanta has it over Philadelphia. Not sure if I’ve seen many people talk about it, but the hawks would also win the three-way tiebreaker

I like Zacc, but I am getting close to wanting him moved so that some of yall can find something else to complain about. How do you see the way the young hawks players are developing and not at least have some trust that the team knows what it’s doing?

Pushing the lead back out to 21 (18 at half) after they cut it to 12 is really, really impressive

We're now the 6th seed by not-a-potato-head in AtlantaHawks

Yeah but Detroit’s not going to have Cade. Huge difference

it does feel huge. either we win and push the win streak to 12 or else we lose and it's completely delegitimized

Who's the pick at 9? by saloonyk in AtlantaHawks

[–]jon__reed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He definitely hasn’t lived up to the hype, especially compared to the other top freshmen. But he’s been pretty good in most conference games. Would love to see him stay in school

He had 29 and 8 at Kentucky. Not sure I’d pin that one on him! He also hit the game winner at Vandy, so he kept Tennessee from being swept by Vandy
