    If Roy doesn't play tonight and we win, I think that says volumes! My bet LA and Wallaces's #'s are great and we kick the Kings ass!


    I watched the game and BRoy is screwing up the chemistry, not Wallace, and LA has totally vanished since Broy's return! My worry has now been confirmed!


    Roy needs to be benched, no further questions! He's done! Let's move on!

    Nate needs to realize playcating Roy is killing this teams chances of a playoffs run, a week ago we were very much in!!!

    A little frothy on the delivery, but I agree with pretty much all the observations here.

    There is the very real danger of this turning into another Mo/Damon situation. Mo - and the team - were pretty much doomed at the point he just handed Damon the keys, and sat on the bench with his head in his hands.

    id like to see that as well.

    second unit of rudy-wes-nic-crash-LMA used to push the pace a bit. let rudy and crash run and have shooters trail. lots of people to make cuts when LMA is down low too

    I dont think beating the kings says anything either way. I could beat the kings by myself. Wait til we play some quality then judge the whole Wallace/Roy/Aldridge chemistry thing.

    Last time I looked the Hawks and Rockets were not considered upper echelon teams in this league. Getting past the Kings was still a huge concern as we saw! That said LA had a better outing although still not up to the standards we and he knows he can do. As for the Roy thing, I have to say him not playing was a relief to me. Two years ago that would have been unthinkable but know I just hope he sits. The team and its "ENERGY" is just better without him!

    Then explain why Aldridge put up 29/14 and 24/14 in Roy's first two games back and why he shot 9-27 last night when Roy didn't play

    Roy bashers will ignore this post

    That Hawks are actually turning to be really good since they added Capt. Kirk as their PG. Their defense went from OK to darn good. Add the fact that both teams had the kind of guys that give LMA fits on defense (physical or very long) and it is pretty clear why we had problems with them.
