And it gets worse. That last play was BRUTAL! The Hawks did everything they could to keep the door open for the Magic, who just weren't good enough to accept the gift.
I can't help but root for the Hawks, hoping it will bump up our chance of getting Dwight from 1% to 1.5%! /dream Pugs
that's where he wants. i'm sure after this series, he wants to team up with another superstar. god watching stars with no support is like watching tmac/yao all over again. pathetic.
Both team sucks soo bad but man, Orlando doesn't deserve another star and Howard is good as gone. Can't believe this Hawk was the same team that got blown out by the magic in each of the 4 games last year. This shows how much they regressed since the trade. Lets see.... Shaq jetted T-mac jetted and soon to be Howard. I thought the Rockets were cheap but the Magic org is worst.
Howard looked completely exhausted down the stretch. Repeatedly carrying the team by himself is taking a toll. The Magic have no chemistry. They have no idea how to set up one another for the easy shot. They're like the anti-Adelman team. I still thought Orlando had enough talent and defense to beat Atlanta. Looks like I was way off.
What happened to that Orlando team that looked so interesting and seemed like the team of the future only a few seasons ago? They are a mess, the trades they did will doom them for a few years and probably cost them DHoward. I feel for Orlando, first Shaq and now Howard for a market that is small but does have some appeal where players might want to go play.
Man Josh Smith should switch back to the SF position permanatly He would such a mismatch with his minimal but effective post up game and he can guard the three & would allow Horford to play the 4 and the Hawks to get a decent C in the summer Dalembert maybe ?
Everyone knew that the Hawks would get blown out today, they are gunning for game 6 anyway. I didn't even watch the game but I bet that the Hawks effort just wasn't there today, they didn't really try to win.
