Hawks Injury Report: Acie's back is still injured. Mixed reports on whether he is available to play. Good be a bigger issue than some think.
Heat Injury Report: Everyone is back.

Game Preview:
Nothing more needs to be said. 48 minutes of hell, and I couldn't be more excited.
I don't care where you are. Be loud. Type in all caps in the comments. Scream during time outs. You are not just an NBA town. You become an NBA town. Ain't no reason to watch 82 games and not go buck nutty tonight. I will be buck nutty in section 108.
LETS GO HAWKS!

SCREAMIN FROM DC
We need Zaza to do some rendition of Lebron’s pregame powder-shower (even though he’ll then have to go right back to the bench)….I’m thinking pouring the entire can on his chest and chest-bumping the starters….
Another upsetting First game loss in the East (Sixers over Miami)

Marvin only played 5 minutes
Is Woodson playing some sort of match-up, or are they still limiting Marvin’s minutes?
Or was he just stupidly responding to picking up one foul?
They've gotta be limiting his minutes,
too bad, but he’s a lot more important if the Hawks move on the play Lebron.
If that's the call, it should be on the floor
rather than waiting to see if he makes the shot or not. NBA refs are HORRIBLE.
C'mon PACH!
You should have gotten that
The Ref’s love giving away fouls.

Marvin Williams
asserting himself and getting to the line. I LOVE when Marvin plays like this.
It’s also nice that the Hawks are spreading the fouls around-1 foul each for 6 players.
I lol at Steve Harvey - I mean Mike Woodson!

I learned toward the end of the season to close my eyes when Josh Smith shoots free throws
And (mostly) thanks to me, he’s now 4-4 on the night.
Also noteworthy
Flip Murray played 8 minutes and 8 seconds and didn’t put up a shot.
Hey, when did the Heat become a team that settles for jump shots?
Thats the truth..

This is the "Nothing to See Here" TNT halftime report
Was that not a ridiculously exciting half of basketball, what’s happening here?
I wish I had something to say about that first half
But 59-39 pretty much speaks for itself. Just please, please don’t pull an Orlando.
Glad we didn't get the Sixers in the first (so far)
Dwight SHOULD have gotten that last shot..

kenny smith is BS
he is obviously a fan of wade. the way he comment on the game.
"both teams have such glaring deficiencies..."
how about instead of commenting on how you viewed the teams pre-game, discuss the ACTUAL GAME….great first half
Agreed, Hawks dominated the first half..
but I still felt allot of doubt from the guys…

How was that Wade's first shot of the half?
how does he not assert himself more? I’m not complaining, though
Go ZaZA GO!

Beautiful game 1
especially in light of all the visiting team upsets today and yesterday…who would have thought the Bulls, Mavs, and Sixers would pull off upsets and that we’d get the blowout win?
the big difference
hawks got 6 players in double figures and the heat have 2. awesome!
SportsCenter will have a section called...

lol spoe
Baseball is a game where a curve is an optical illusion, a screwball can be a pitch or a person, stealing is legal and you can spit anywhere you like except in the umpire's eye or on the ball.
