The Hawks man up please they are going to be fishing like Kenny Smith says. They are horrible and have a big ass crybaby, LeBron wanabe named Josh Smith that is why they are losing. He needs to get his ass in the paint and stay there and leave the jump shots to the guards because his sucks. As for my Cavs its a wrap it is the King’s world.

Dime has long fostered an anti-LeBron bias here — I see things haven’t changed.
May 11th, 2009 at 7:29 pm
K Dizzle says:
@ post 2 What the fuck are you even talkin about? Who was on the last cover of DIME? You don’t have to be on this website
ATL hangin around…
May 11th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
Austin Burton says:
That’s just JBFC’s gimmick.
May 11th, 2009 at 7:34 pm
Hawks Fan says:
I’m just thinking out loud here — but any chance the Haws might have a reliance (ie promissory estoppel) claim against the NBA if they lose this game? Might Section 90 be of significants?
May 11th, 2009 at 7:35 pm
Aron Phillips says:
I bet Sasha’s broken nose and facemask, and the fact that he just didn’t pass the ball to LeBron (resulting in a TO), are not isolated incidents…
May 11th, 2009 at 7:37 pm
The Answer says:
I’m sure Dime’s praying for a Cavs loss so they can shit all over LeBron tomorrow.

Question: How has better facial hair - Mike Brown or Mike Woodson?
May 11th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
K Dizzle says:
It’s gotta be a tie, Look like they spend they pregames gettin everything on point
May 11th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
The Answer says:
A: Mike Hunt
May 11th, 2009 at 7:45 pm
Austin Burton says:
No contest. Mike Woodson is the Steve Harvey of NBA facial hair.
Just turned on the game (I thought it started at 5pm) to see Wally drive past Mo Evans for a dunk. Wally?

Bet LBJ goes 3-7 for threes, scoring 34 points…
May 11th, 2009 at 7:54 pm
Aron Phillips says:
@The Answer
What are you talking about?! Half the people think we jock Kobe. The other half LeBron. Why so much hate? I was talking about LeBron having a King-sized broom in the office earlier today.
May 11th, 2009 at 7:57 pm
Austin Burton says:
Nice passes over the last few possessions. I liked Smith’s dime to Bibby that led to Marvin’s FTs.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:00 pm
Austin Burton says:
Mike Brown just said LeBron reminds him of Tim Duncan with his basketball IQ.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:01 pm
Aron Phillips says:
@Austin
5PM?!?! Just because you live on the West Coast doesn’t mean you have to adopt their clock? You should be like the Blazers and still keep East Coast hours.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
Austin Burton says:
The clock on my computer is still on EST, that’s all I’m giving you.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:09 pm
that's whats up says:
this series has shown Josh Smith’s true colors
immature player who can’t shoot worth a damn
May 11th, 2009 at 8:09 pm
goonther says:
i guess its biased to enjoy watching the best player in the league ….
May 11th, 2009 at 8:10 pm
Aron Phillips says:
@Austin
Of course you found a way to get TD’s name in the mix in an Eastern Conference playoff game completely unrelated. We could play Six Degrees of Tim Duncan to try and find a connection…
May 11th, 2009 at 8:12 pm
Austin Burton says:
@AP — Mike Brown said it, not me.
Flip Murray is definitely my favorite player on the Hawks. Marvin (hometown) and Joe tied for second. Josh Smith is like 10th.

The Answer says:
Does anyone else think TNT’s touch screen play analysis is just stupid? It really doesn’t help you visualize anything, and then they just show the clip anyway. C’mon TNT, let’s step it up a notch.

I recently moved to the Central Time Zone from the Eastern and it’s f*cking my sh*t up real bad. Working til 10 here = missing the entire first game of every series. Miserable.

Anyone else not going to watch Hawthorne or any of these other TNT shows? Jada Pinkett Smith is hot for an older woman but everytime i see her in those commercials, cuz they are on ALL THE TIME, I go flaccid…am I the only one who thinks TNT absolutely crushes your soul with repetitive commercials?
May 11th, 2009 at 8:29 pm
K Dizzle says:
Bibby with another airball. Him and Horford ain’t even catchin rim…
May 11th, 2009 at 8:30 pm
Big Sia says:
Mark Cuban better watch the fuck out… K mart would probably off him regardless
May 11th, 2009 at 8:35 pm
K Dizzle says:
Man, this series is garbage. No intensity, Hawks don’t play d, never attack the rim, and don’t even pretend to guard Lebron…..I’m gonna check out the hockey game…..yeah, that bad
May 11th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
Austin Burton says:
@Flash — TNT and TBS are the worst. Millions of Tyler Perry commercials. If my girl hadn’t forced me to watch “Leverage” (which is actually very good) I was gonna boycott it just on GP.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:46 pm
RonNation says:
Does the African American community enjoy Tyler Perry, because every person I’ve talked to hates that show.. A few black friends included..

Andrew Katz says:
I know that Cleveland does a great job of getting back in transition, but do you think Atlanta should try to force the issue more in transition? Mike Woodson and his awkward “just for men” goatee might get his team to play a little bit harder if there was always a possibility of a showtime dunk at the end of a play.
May 11th, 2009 at 8:56 pm
Flash says:
The Cavs are just an unrelenting force…I know Denver is playing solid ball right now, and maybe you can blame the weak comp for the Cavs, but they just impose their will on teams, both offensively and defensively. They never look remotely rattled, journeymen like Joe Smith are climbing over younguns for rebounds, even Wally goes for post-ups and fadeaways…If Ray Allen is a cyborg, and Sasha Vujacic is the Machine (the most undeserving nickname), what do you call the Cavs?

Delonte’s dunk on Marvin was harsh.

Did you see that collection of clownage sitting behind LeBron when he just inbounded the ball? That was like a “Making the Band” reject reunion.
May 11th, 2009 at 9:07 pm
that's whats up says:
I’m actually hoping either the Hawks or Mavs win just so there is not a ball-less Wednesday this week
May 11th, 2009 at 9:14 pm

Just getting in here. These Hawks are trying to make it interesting…guess not, LeBron just hit a three.

After seeing that Delonte dunk on SportsCenter, I’m sure the Hawks will just turn off the TV.
May 11th, 2009 at 9:21 pm
POPPI GEE says:
If you talking about that muppet joint, Yea that is Kobe lol!
Junk had me cracking up and it’s close to real life the way LeBron is all happy and excited and Kobe is just coolin lol.
Hey not for nothing, if the Hawks don’t win this expect Josh Smith to go back at the coach and he might be joined by 1 or 2 more players. Big unravel.
May 11th, 2009 at 9:23 pm
Flash says:
That sequence of missed 3’s sums this series up…they just aren’t going to win, the fates are conspiring against them…
May 11th, 2009 at 9:23 pm

How many threes are they gonna miss in a row. Damn Joe Jeezy (shouts out to the homie…).

first of all im a lakers hater,and i want the the cavs to win
But there is a BIG,Problem
ok the cavs are rolling and the lakers look avarege at times
BUT:
what if the cavs played the jazz in the first round and rockets in the second and then the hot nuggets in the third round
the cavs are rolling against pretenders ,but the lakers are playing against very good teams
like i said ,put the lakers against the pistons and hawks and cleveland against jazz and rockets
the problem is that next cavs series is gonna be their First

Dagomar says:
People thought the Pistons were dangerous, then the Cavs demolished them and everyone said well, the Pistons were shit anyway. Then people said the Hawks were a good young team - Hollinger called them an elite team - and the Cavs crushed them. Now I guess they suck too. Sure, the Hawks or Pistons are not the 80s Celtics or the 90s Bulls. But the Cavs have just completely demolished decent teams. Not beat. Demolished. Completely imposed their will and never lost focus. Meanwhile Lebron just played his worst game of the playoffs and still had 27/8/8. The Cavs (and Lebron) are making teams look like shit because they’re just that good.

@ dagomar, agree with you. cavs are playing out of their mind. hope they go all the way.
- still not comfortable with a potential orlando match-up if dwight imposes his D and magic run. cavs are prone to fastbreaks. but if bron still plays like he owns the other team, then it’s a different story
- i mean lakers are still the favorites on paper since they have a deeper team but can someone really say now that a cavs-lakers match-up wouldn’t be at least competitive? people talk as if cavs would be blasted in that series. let’s hope for a game 7 with bron and kobe duelling to the finish.

Okay AB Flip my oldhead North Phil all day.Yeah D West shining too even though he from Maryland for real but he came to us for college and took us to a Elite 8 and bounced so we adopted him for that.He come down for runs in the summer.I see him at least once or twice a summer balling.
