Atlanta Hawks to go big this year

As a regular season ticket holder........

What's this have to do with it, lolol?

Remember, though, we're only 5/6 games into the season. And a season where there are going to be a lot of games coming in faster than normal. We're going to see people get tired and sluggish real easy this year because of the lock-out. I'm not saying the Hawks won't make the post season. They usually always do. They just won't go deep in. They won't make it to conference finals. I'd be surprised to see them make it past round one, but I know they can.

Just seems like every professional Atlanta team gives up in the post season. The Braves do it. The Falcons do it. The Hawks do it. They always have. Later, QD.

The braves have had a weak team last two years. Braves lost by 1 game to giants who were world series champions, this year they just had bad months and epic collapses at the end.

Falcons aren't the team they were last year, and their rivals are that much better.

Hawks I think if they stay healthy are poised to upset a lot of people

I've been to all the games and watched all away games, and I'm a player. So I think my analysis is good.

I've been to games since the 70's, watched games since then and I am/was a player (recreational and college). Your analysis IS good. Not questioning your logic at all, Mike. I agree with everything you're pointing out. Agree up to the point of the Hawks going deep in the playoffs.

When I say that pro Atlanta teams give up in the playoffs, I'm not talking about in recent years. I'm talking about all time. I'm talking about the Braves 14 straight pennants with only 1 World Series to show for it. You know, it's like tradition for Atlanta teams to get everyone hyped up and them let them down when it really counts.

Don't get me wrong, Mike, I am a Braves, Falcons and Hawks fan, dude. And I do wish the best for all three teams. Later, QD.
