    Seriously, our starters (minus Bargs) are all playing excellent basketball. Bosh has been on a tear for the past month. His FG% is ridiculous.

    Nice game, but holy shit, Bargs is really starting to worry me now.

    Still, nice game. Good intensity from our guys... though seeing somebody stick up for an assaulted player would be nice.

    He's a 21 year old rookie that seems to know how to take out a star player almost to the point of contemplating his career. Bosh was not getting any all-star treatment tonight, most of his shots went in. Horford should just keep quiet. Any little foul out of him and the ACC would've started rioting.

    I didn't get to catch the game, I went out to see Cloverfield (which by the way was good, but was way to over-hyped. Monster was cool though. Also, if you can't watch the Blair Witch Project without getting queezy, don't watch this. The camera was worse, but still a good movie)

    So, how did everyone play. I see Delfino had no points, but Bosh was getting it down along with Parker and Moon.

    Also, how did the Hawks play, all bias aside. I want to know how my fav teams played tonight.

    I listened to the game on the radio and man did it sound great.
    It took until midway through the third for someone to hit a three and for awhile, I was a tad nervous. Then AP starting lighting up (4-6 from 3).
    They gotta get on a plane and fly to Philly now but the game is in the evening and it's the same time zone so hopefully the team won't be gassed.

    I heard the monster is a gigantic crab.

    Calderon owned Horford on that easy lay in.

    Horford was getting owned on offense, more than defense. Jamario swatted away his shot, Bosh did the same, and the Raps generally held him confused whenever he had the ball. Remember the uproar after the TJ injury, about how the Raps didn't get up in Horford's face and make a big deal about it? Their D against him today leads me to believe that they really do save their talking for the court.

    Overall, the game was pretty interesting. I never really thought the game was getting away from Toronto, even when we lost our lead, just because Atlanta's defense was so poor. Bosh had his way with anyone guarding him and AP was on fire with his shooting. Jamario also had another solid all-around game. Sam basically rode his starters to the win, because our bench wasn't really doing much.


    I rented and watched 3:10 to Yuma. That's a sick friggin' movie. Seriously, I want to be a cowboy now.

    The monster wasn't a huge crab, it was a crab like monster, but I don't know how to describe it.

    Thanks for the info Chutney and shookem. I like hearing that Moon had a good all around game, while Bosh and Parker were lighting it up. I read the box score and our starters (minues Bargnani) were getting it done. The thing that bothers me, is our bench. We have a strong bench, but I don't see them producing in the last few games, and we need that.

    From, my Atlanta point of view, not a good game for us at all. While Johnson and Smith had good stats, we need them to lead. AJ was just plain stupid, and while he does some good things, he was a real idiot tonight. Horford is still young, and I don't expect him to be shutting down Bosh or really taking it to him.
