Hawks Injury Report: Marvin Williams and some dude named Craig. Acie Law has a hurt back but probably will not play regardless.
Spurs Injury Report: Manu might make his return against the Hawks tonight...as if I could dislike him more.

Predicted bane of the Hawks existence: Tony Parker
Game Preview:
Comparing Mike Bibby's defense to Al Horford's defense is a little like placing 24 ounce Sweetwater from Gorins in the CNN center next to glass of three day old O'Douls. And Al Horford is not an exceptional defender.
With that said here are the keys to the game.
- Make Tim Duncan beat you not Tony Parker. Mostly because I know for a fact Tony Parker can beat the Hawks.
- If Manu is back, do not give provide a flashlight so he can find his rhythm. Flashlight is a
cleverdifferent way of saying don't put him on the line.
- Josh Smith meet Matt Bonner. Matt Bonner meet Josh Smith.
A big project is keeping me away from the arena, and this game is going to keep me away from my project. See you in the game thread. Be ready for some hot Flip!
Go Hawks!
