Tonight's Game vs San Antonio Spurs. Tip Off - 6:30 ET
During the Hawks' Summer League Opener much of the team appeared to be tight and hesitant in their play. By the time the second half rolled around we saw players like Pape Sy and Richard Hendrix. Tonight we will be looking for the Jeff Teague and Jordan Crawford's supporting cast to settle down early and hopefully give a much more consistent performance.
Eyes will once again be on both Teague and Crawford to see if they can build upon their good showing in game one. Alade Aminu and Hendrix played well in game 1 and we will be looking to see if they can repeat that performance. The Hawks will have to tighten up their transition defense as they allowed far too many easy baskets in the first game. Of course cutting down on turnovers and making a more concerted team effort on the boards will also go a long way.

"Teague gave it away under..... Average pressure."
lol…
Joe is a Beast
Al is a Beast
Smoove is a MONSTER!
no, i was following you
just lazy and not that into it. I’m pretty sure NBA TV has it replaying later, cause I got it DVR’d.
Transition D is a problem once again for the Summer League Team
of course it would help if they would quit turning it over on offense
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Too many turnovers leading to run out buckets for the Spurs
Spurs a little more physical, but Hawks looked a little better to end the period. 4-12 FG yet again
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
I can't see anything. Anybody having problems viewing? I can hear them but can't see them
Bet it hit the rim!
Augustine with a nice bucket and then working hard for an offensive rebound the next trip

By the way
Last night the ESPN3 broadcast was several seconds ahead of the NBA.com stream. In case any of you are watching on both
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
and wonder why someone comments at the same time something is happening on your screen
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
The Hawks have made some of the absolute worst decisions in transition tonight.
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Agreed I was hoping that they would cut those down from the first game,
Not happening so far though. The Bright spot has been Jordan Crawford and Richard Hendrix thus far
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Teague needs to concentrate...
What do we expect though? He got absolutely no playing time
Bet it hit the rim!
He looks good
His effort on Defense and his passing ability make him look even better
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Yikes...
Monta Ellis numbers…

That was a good pass from Teague
Davidson should have dunked that off the lob
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
I'm not seeing as much movement as the other night, A lot of one on one and standing around
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Common for guys to try and shoot the team back into it. Teague maybe starting to settle down
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
For what it is worth
Morris looks a lot better tonight than in game 1

+1000000000!

People over on ESPNs DDL
mentioned that many of the spurs players play for their D-League team. they’ve been playing for awhile now.
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:25 PM EDT up reply actions
52-36 halftime lead for the Spurs
Turnovers Turnovers, more turnovers. Unofficially I have Teague with 9 on the night by himself
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Still must remember this is just summer league. At any rate Teague has to improve his decision making
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
On the bright side Jordan Crawford played pretty well, Hendrix is solid again as well
Hard to measure when you turn the ball over as much as the Hawks have
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
It's amazing how some of these guys are not given a shot but play better than people like Morris
Bet it hit the rim!
Just now able to tune in.
What have I missed? Someone give me a quick run down.

Hahaha... Damn.
Hopefully a second half turnaround is coming up.

Why is Alonzo Gee
out there, the way he’s looking he needs to be starting for the spurs
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:39 PM EDT reply actions
Wow.
Hawks getting destroyed on the inside allowing o-boards.
by Fan Scribe Chris on Jul 14, 2010 7:39 PM EDT reply actions
The Hawks are not anywhere close to game 1's movement off the ball
Lots of standing around going on out there tonight
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Seems like Spurs either get a lay up or to the free throw line every trip
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
we have no frontcourt out there
and teague is getting hounded. this may be a blowout, but its a good lesson for teague in what he should expect in the regular season.
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:42 PM EDT reply actions
If we're gonna try to post up Morris every trip down on our end, we'll lose by 30.
Bet it hit the rim!
i think the posting
has more to do with getting teague acclimated to passing to bigs like Al and Josh moreso than trying to get randmo some points.
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:44 PM EDT up reply actions
right now
i’ll take Gee over Marvin
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:46 PM EDT up reply actions
Gee needs to get signed
after this game
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:45 PM EDT reply actions
Damn Gee
lol. Making Luke Jackson look really bad.
by Fan Scribe Chris on Jul 14, 2010 7:46 PM EDT reply actions
nice shot
jordan crawford for THREE
and good drive by teague
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:48 PM EDT reply actions
Yea me too,
I don;t know what people saw in Damion Jones
SWING AND A DRIVE, BELTED RIGHT…..and McCann makes the catch by the dugout.
by Hudson's Soul Patch on Jul 14, 2010 7:50 PM EDT up reply actions
Don't quote me...
But I think Damion James scored 30 in his first Summer League game… I personally think the SF position is more important than the SG on the Hawks right now…
Damion James is gonna be a beast…

The Guard position will become important soon
Crawsover is probably gonna get traded or not gonna be resigned, and Bibby is on his way out one way or the other. Front office really believes a new coach will help out Marv a LOT.
Great Move by Crawford
almost hit the shot for the And 1
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 7:53 PM EDT reply actions
Amazing how when you quit turning the ball over the deficit starts to shrink
Also forcing the Spurs into jump shots now instead of layups or Free Throws
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
HEAT CHECK!!!!!!!!!!

Teague
Not a starting caliber PG as of now
He aight
Better that he not expose himself if he is not going to do any better than this

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Per Michael Cunningham and Arthur Triche on Twitter
Pape Sy is out tonight with sore Achilles
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Teague please don't this to us.
We can’t survive another season of Bibby starting at the point
Bet it hit the rim!
I thought he broke his wrist

This guy has GOT to stop laughing at his own jokes/comments...
Joe is a Beast
Al is a Beast
Smoove is a MONSTER!
Gilder reminds me of a
Rafer Alston/Tayshaun Prince mix… looks-wise..
He looks good out there.

Commentators are right...
Teague needs to trust his J more (or work on it).
by Fan Scribe Chris on Jul 14, 2010 8:12 PM EDT reply actions
Yep he hasn't really taken any jump shots tonight whatsoever, at any rate he has looked better in the 2nd half
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Just as I was getting ready to saw that Randolph Morris is a waste of space
He goes in and gets himself fouled.
I don't think the commentator likes Morris too much.
He keeps asking, “Can he stand out?” I guess it’s a rhetorical question because D Scott ain’t touching it.
Bet it hit the rim!
Crawford has played well, had a hot streak in the 3rd
Alonzo Gee for the Spurs has looked better than anyone IMO
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
nobody really stood out.
teague stood out for being bad with 9 TO’s, but its his taking care of the ball that’s gotten us back in the game
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 8:22 PM EDT reply actions
the randmo experiment
should now be called over.
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 8:23 PM EDT reply actions
And folks wonder...
why we wanted the Hawks to draft a big.
by Fan Scribe Chris on Jul 14, 2010 8:27 PM EDT up reply actions
I don't want to hear...
“this is just summer league” … If someone can’t see that Crawford is a scoring machine and really gifted on the offensive end, they have to be blind.
by Fan Scribe Chris on Jul 14, 2010 8:26 PM EDT reply actions
Yep.
That has surprised me as well.
by Fan Scribe Chris on Jul 14, 2010 8:28 PM EDT up reply actions
Dug too big of a hole early,
Spurs dominated inside anytime they wanted, they just quit going inside for a stretch during the third quarter. They are back in there now and the Hawks don’t have an answer
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
We might not win a game in SL
with this frontcourt.
by Bryant Singleton on Jul 14, 2010 8:31 PM EDT reply actions
Aminu has played really good
Just missing a man in the middle who can rebound. Hendrix probably could take some of the minutes at the 5 and do a decent job.
89-84 Final
Could have been worse, too many turnovers 23.
Teague looked a lot better in the second half
http://www.peachtreehoops.com/
Our Summer league is purley about Teague and Jordan
the rest of our roster kinda sucks. even for a summer team. though there are a couple bright spots.
