    The Atlanta Hawks made it out the first round 3 years straight, until this year.

    Try doing some NBA research before you write

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/ATL/

    2007-08, they also took Boston to Game 7. We have no room to bash any team, like the Hawks.

    bashing = I hate the Hawks and their overrated bench players
    facts = hawks made it to the 2nd round for the last 3 years until this year

    this is your problem tinman, you always present "facts" but are unable to understand that facts can be twisted in any way, you don't have the ability to contextually look those same facts, which is why your arguments are incredibly weak.

    Fact: Michael Jordan is good
    Fact: Tracy McGrady is not Michael Jordan
    Conclusion: Track McGrady sucks

    This is on par with the anti-McGrady "facts" out there

    you ever watch that show about those dudes hunting ghosts?

    they have some device that if you slow down the video you can see an image of a human like figure that appears out of thin air


    If they use this device in the second round of the playoffs, they still won't find Tracy McGrady

    If not making it out the first round is your biggest failure in life then you probably have lived a better than the most people.

    Anyway lol @ blaming T-mac for the Hawks not making it to the 2nd round.

    LMFAO!! And they won a whopping 2-8 after the first round. Yea they suck. Try actually opening a link before you try to throw some useless fact out there and then post a link (in which you did not even look at, otherwise you would see how stupid you are) that completely contradicts your dumb argument.

    On top of that, in 08-09 and 09-10 they barely made it out of the first round against teams with way worse players and way worse records. Look at things from the broader perspective and not your ideological perspective :rolleyes:


    +1 to you TheRealist137

    hahahaha

    A team that hasn't lost in the 1st round in along time, who supposedly improved with the signing of a certain player for their bench suddenly sucks.

    How about you look at all the teams Tracy McGrady played for and how times when he was playing, that he actually helped a team win a playoff series.

    Typical Tracy fan responses:

    This team sucks.
    He should go to this team cause they don't suck.

    First of all, teams don't make the playoffs and call it a successful season. That is considered a failure. You make the playoffs to win a championship.

    Secondly, what does this have to do with Tracy McGrady fan responses? I am not a fan of his, he is not on the Rockets. When he was here, I liked him the first few years and then thought he was a circus. I was merely saying the Hawks have sucked. Regardless if they get passed the first round (barely) and get swept in the 2nd. They are not good and if you put them in the Western Conference, they would likely not even make the playoffs. Again you are letting your opinion persuade you as a fact.

    In fact, if you look at Tracy McGrady +/- (I know that some people don't consider that a valid statistic, but it is something to base his performance on while on the court) he was well into the - in all but 2 games not including a 0. The 2 games he was on the plus side, it was a +1 and +3 but he had -6, -2, -13. You are still not making any sense.

    just laughable.... how can a 32 year old with injury story the lone or some reason Hawks couldn't make it to round 2? Hawks choked as a team.
    Plain simple. AND BOSTON IS A SOLID TEAM.

    I guess the same reason you claim you don't care about Tracy McGrady yet every Tracy McGrady you have the most post in every one of his threads.
