Not giving you an accountability talk.

You asked a question.

I answered.

Don't want to hear anything about accountability? Don't ask anything that had to do with you.

Long as you're making the dialogue about you, I'm'a jump in. Make it not about you.

(I'm so positive I know what your response is going to be, but I'll wait and see. I know what it won't be: drop it, move on, Hawks. Just not in you. )

Did your infamous crystal ball know I was coming with one of my lebowski gifs? Or did u misjudge me? Again.

he's not playing. His agent knows whats at stake and a knee is the last thing to try to test. This man is gonna be getting his first big pay day of his basketball career. hes as tough as it comes but even as an subjective fan I wouldn't have him playing. Hes worked too hard and come too far to just take a chance on throwing all that hard work away. For him and his family which matters most is that he takes care of them to the best of his abilities in the future. Anything can happen tho.

 

[ryanjumpman420]

Bazemore will start in Carrolls place. Next man up.

 

[ryanjumpman420]

Damn got the commissioner Adam Silver in Phillips arena tonight. Makin sure no bs happening hopefully. Joey Crawford is reffin this game. Always see him this time of year reffin big games. It's no accident and he's an awful ref. If u know their names they're a bad ref if u don't they're probably one of the good ones. Don't see how it could have been any worse than scott foster(Tim Donoghy's partner in crime) from game 1.

= "In my world, I'm allowed to talk about non-basketball stuff. Not you."

 

(btw, you can't respond to something you said you weren't listening to. 

 Best way to show you weren't listening is... drop it, move on, Hawks. But again, just not in you.

Props to him.

You really have to be dead or dying to miss this game, avoiding going down 0-2.

I hope your really feeling yourself over there.

 

[ryanjumpman420]

Darth can make ryanjumpman420 look bad. I think we all get the point.

 

[darthska]

Shhh, watching the game.

Wait, how is the non-Hawks fan saying that? 

 

Really need Horford to get going more. Bazemore was nice when he was in. Need to keep that post presence.

 

[ryanjumpman420]

Jeff Teague not driving the lane like he needs to be and it's driving me crazy

 

[ryanjumpman420]

I'd rather be watching my team get blown out by the dubs than to watch my team play against lbj right now. Just not aesthetically pleasing to the eye watching him play. The officiating is so biased it's comical. That flagrant on lbj was an absolute joke. Hawks been t'd up in both home games now. And i cant even imagine how bad it's gonna be in cleveland.

 

[darthska]

I feel like I've only seen 2 or 3 legit flagrants on Lebron his whole career.

I like his from a talent perspective, but I hate watching how protected he is.

Hate it when it's not my team, hate it when it's my team, just hate it.

Just a 5 point game, though, and the Hawks aren't exactly playing their best. Make some adjustments/improvements coming out of the half, keep it close the whole game with a chance to win it at the end.

 

[ryanjumpman420]

The lbj shtick is played the hell out. Hawks offense is in slow motion tho. Lucky to be down 5. If it's gonna take him a ring in cleveland to retire then I hope it's sooner the better. I'm so over him. It's been 12 years. But hawks need to make their open jumpers. Teague HAS TO GET TO THE DAMN BASKET. YOUR NOT STEPH CURRY WITH THE 3. Nobody on that team can stay with him. He just acts like he's scared or something I don't get it. Whenever he drives something good happens. Bud need to start flexing thay COY muscle. Adjust something. Gotta stop them (lbj) from driving and kickin for the 3s. All they do. Easier said that done when your liable to get a flagrant for a regular foul . Dude complains about ANY CONTACT. He's too good he really don't need to do all that. Thats what bothers me most about him.

How come you complain about the calls more then the players actually playing in the game and getting called for the fouls?

 

[rck3sactown]

Damn that replay :x

 

[bravelude]

Darn.  I think it's over.  Lebron on his quest for his 3rd ring.  It's disgusting though, but I guess you can say the moves they did paid dividends.
