I'm going to need them

to come out to play from start to finish tonight.

Is it possible

That Woodson needs to find some new motivating material? I guess “We almost beat the Celtics in a 7 games series” isn’t cutting it anymore, not after the way they came out to play the last two games against a division rival.

Why would he need

to motivate them at all in two games against Orlando? I don’t get it. I thought they would have learned something from Wednesday. The Magic certainly did wend a message as they promised—did the Hawks get it or are they too asleep?

I smell a losing streak (market correction?).

You would think

that after being dominated in the first half Wednesday at home, they might want to avoid being dominated again int he first half against the same team two nights later.

But they failed to correct any of their major issues. I wish we could still use the “they’re a young team” excuse, but sadly, of the 8 guys that play regular minutes, all but one is in at least his 4th year in the league. This young team is turning into an experienced one with consistency issues.

Well...

… that was quite embarrassing. I’m almost ashamed I even recorded it.

Wake up call?

I hope that something good can come from this other than our reserves getting minutes.

I really hope its a wake up call.

Acie Law

Worst game in a couple years. But if we could find one good thing its Acie Law got 27 mins and scored 16 points and only had 1 turnover. Maybe Woodson will try using his PG now. Sick of him not getting playing time. Does anyone know why Acie get no playing time?

Umm

Shouldn’t you have the inside track to that info there Zaza? HA!
