What to expect from Joe Johnson as he ages
Chicago is one of the most likely teams for Joe Johnson to land outside Atlanta.
So a BlogaBull reader went through the trouble to do some research on shooting guards making max money into their 30s. It is great stuff.
How do I say "I told you so" nicely? How about, I am pretty sure I told you so.
No back-to-back-to-back for Hawks: postponed game at Wizards rescheduled for March 11 at 7 p.m.
Perspective on 2010 and beyond or why the NBA blogosphere is great

NBA blogs are great. They really are.They make me a better Hawk fan without even talking about the Hawks.
Over at Sactown Royalty, Tom Ziller adds some perspective to the try to win now and must win in 2010 mentality that pervades the league. It is a known fact that the new NBA collective bargaining agreement is coming. With many NBA teams losing money, David Stern is going to try and hammer home some serious concessions.
From Wojnarowski at Yahoo!,
Here’s how an NBA front-office executive described the document the commissioner’s office delivered to the union to start labor negotiations: "It’s just a photocopy of Stern’s middle finger."

Atlanta Hawks 91, Chicago Bulls 81 or Josh Smith's middle finger
by hawksdawgs on Feb 5, 2010 11:07 PM EST
40 comments
Josh Smith is nice. He really is. A game like this the day after all-star reserves and some real feelings would have been hurt. Apologies would have actually had to be issued. And coaches would rather quit than apologize. So it is a good thing. Because Josh allowed the Hawks to play six on five for most of the game. And certainly for all of the fourth quarter. At one point, I actually saw Brad Miller cuss as a Bulls jump shot went up because he knew Josh was going to jump over him. I don't know what the lowest usage rate is for a triple double, but Josh had to of challenge that record tonight. He pissed excellence, and in doing so, pissed on the all star game. Hats off.
The difference in the game was 14 turnovers to 8 and 9 offensive rebounds to 14. This is the definition of the focus and effort. It is why I say it every dang recap. Against elite teams, the Hawks have to game plan well, but they are good enough these days to win most nights with focus and energy. But it should be noted, everyone else was normal. Which goes to show you, Josh Smith's exceptional is game changing. Someone important should file this away. Pull it out for the next thirty-three games.
The third quarter fake collapse
Lets not pretend the Hawks past two third quarters were ok. Third quarters like the last two nights lead to 20 point losses to the Magic. You can be impressed Atlanta does not freak out or implode, but you can't pretend they are good enough to mail in whole quarter against elite teams.
I have a hard time blaming attitude when the Hawks respond so quickly in the fourth or even energy since they are not so much better than the Bulls or Clippers that they can just flip a switch and dominate. The effort and attitude were failing in the third and succeeding in the fourth.
Instead, I think it is a focus issue. And in all honesty, I wish Woody had a rotation with the bench that resembled the first half more. Where the second unit starts coming in during the third and starts the fourth. It could cut down on starters minutes and give the first unit a mind set that they can go full bore for those first 8 minutes knowing they are getting a rest before a final push.

Atlanta Hawks attendance and the "R" word
by hawksdawgs on Feb 4, 2010 5:23 PM EST
267 comments
It is no secret the Hawks are not drawing that well at Philips. You only need to look at the upper deck of a Tuesday night game to see. In their best season in years, they currently sit 20th in the league. And like last year, I assume they are near the top of giving away tickets that count for their attendance totals. Often these conversations lead to excusing why we do or don't go, but in all honesty, if you read this blog, I know most of you when able would go to the game. Still, there are lingering reasons why many people are able and unwilling.
To start, let me make a few things clear or at least known about what I think about Atlanta.
- I think Atlanta is a great sports town.
- A lot transplants reside here.
- The city has a history of failing to support teams.
- And supporting teams ravenously.
- We are in an economic recession.
- All five of these things are no excuse for the Hawks to not draw better.
So with that I offer one more possibility. If you disagree with me, do it respectfully. If you disagree with a commenter, do that respectfully. I am not posting this because it is a heated issue, but I know it is one. In the end, I am discussing a culture not necessarily an active set of beliefs. Go Hawks!
