Hawks-Hornets
Greetings, all
I’m at the homestead for this one and will be watching on the television as you all will.
Some thoughts and on we go.
Why the Hawks win tonight
1) Marvin Williams has gotten himself in a groove and has an exploitable matchup against Peja Stojakovic.
2) The Hawks...
Come in, Houston
Question: Who is Houston’s leading scorer? (Answer below)
What’s up, folks?
Sorry to jump on so late today. I have to get cranking on a couple different things – a story about the Hawks’ second team for tomorrow and then a notes column for Sunday – so...
Hawks-Heat
What’s up, folks?
Another big one coming this evening with the two teams with the best record in the East taking the floor. Some gleanings to share
Worth noting:
1. This is just Miami’s third road game of the season, having played nine of their first 11 in Miami. The Heat...
Whaddya know?
Greetings, all-
Hope you are well. As things sometimes go in my life, I was just about to post a new blog but I was messing around with it and it all disappeared. That’s how I roll. So this will probably be not quite as in-depth. Trust me, it was awesome. (I am being cynical...
Hornets vs. Hawks
Okay, here’s your game blog, folks.
Nothing too significant from pre-game stuff that I heard. Sorry I can’t write more; I gotta crank out some stuff before tipoff.
Any predictions?
Your first-place Atlanta Hawks
BOSTON - Only by a half-game over Miami, but pretty strange, I bet, for some of you to read.
I’m at Logan, waiting for a 7 a.m. flight back home. While I’ve got a few minutes, I figured I’d dump a few more quotes on you and look ahead. The big news is that Chris Paul...
We’ve got (a few) answers
Good afternoon, all-
Thanks for your patience. I kind of ended up taking the long way back from the arena because I had to run an errand, and then lunch, then transcribing and now the blog.
Some Mike Woodson material:
He thinks the Celtics are the best team in the league, better than...
Coming to you from Boston
What’s up?
Just landed in Boston, quite literally. I’m sitting in baggage claim at Logan. (It’s not that cold here, actually.)
Anyway, nothing to throw at you, other than that I’m pretty fired up for Friday night’s tilt. I don’t know exactly what...
Big shoes to fill
What’s up, Sekou readers?
Hope you are all doing well. Thanks for your patience in waiting for this blog to get churning again. My name is Ken Sugiura, and I have the unenviable task of following up the master. Sekou, if you weren’t aware, took a job down the street at nba.com...
A fresh start
I know you didn't see enough of rookie point guard Jeff Teague against Portland. Who wants to be their lunch money that he plays big minutes against Sacramento tonight?
SACRAMENTO – Before you finish your sentence complaining about Jeff Teague not playing against Portland and...
Pump your brakes
LaMarcus Aldridge might not get a chance to get after Josh Smith (hand reaching for the ball) and the Hawks tonight at the Rose Garden. A knee injury could keep him on the sideline (and major props to my man Salim Stoudamire - corner right - who is one of Portland's All-Time finestâ...
The morning after
The Hawks' frustrations were fueled by their own mistakes against the Lakers Sunday night at Staples Center.
LOS ANGELES – It probably feels just as nasty this morning as it did last night, that taste in the Hawks’ beaks after the Lakers kicked dirt all over them.
How...
Business (trip) as usual
Don't let the beautiful views fool you, this trip to the left coast is a business trip for the Hawks.
LOS ANGELES – Jeff Teague’s Halloween costume aside, the Hawks are here in my favorite city for one thing and one thing only; business.
This is a business trip that they...
Woody’s words of wisdom
Jamal Crawford and Hawks coach Mike Woodson are on the same page now after a brief meeting of the minds after Crawford played just 12 minutes in the season opener.
HAWKSVILLE – Jamal Crawford was understandably a bit confused about his role as the Hawks’ sixth man after playing...
Depth revealed (sort of)?
Did you see enough of Hawks rookie point guard Jeff Teague in the season opener? Hawks coach Mike Woodson's rotation was 10-deep but as expected, the minutes were lopsided in favor of the starters.
HAWKSVILLE – Did you see enough of Jamal Crawford and Joe Smith Wednesday night...
Are you ready for opening night?
Al Horford and the Hawks insist they are ready to get things cracking in the Eastern Conference this season. We'll all find out soon enough. Horford and the Hawks face the Pacers Wednesday night at Philips Arena.
HAWKSVILLE – Answer the question.
Are you ready?

Â
HAWKSVILLE –Â After a reasonably injury-free preseason the Hawks came crashing back to reality Sunday.
Al Horford sat on a corner table with wires hanging...
The space between?
The Hawks saw far too much of Dwight Howard and friends Friday night in Orlando. And that's the way it's going to be all season for these (so-called) Southeast Division rivals.
HAWKSVILLE – Stay low any of you unlucky Hawks fans in or around Orlando this weekend.
After...
Cut Day!
Â
The Mario West era came to an abrupt end before practice Wednesday. He was one of three players the Hawks cut to trim the roster to 13 players.
HAWKSVILLE –Â A group that numbered 20 just a few weeks ago is now down to just 13.
It was cut day at the Hawks’ practice...
Contagious is the new word!
Â
The Hawks opened up a can on the Wizards Monday night at Philips Arena, including this nasty dunk from Josh Smith.
HAWKSVILLE – Mike Woodson is retiring his favorite word, for one night at least.
Huge is history. He’s caught the bug from Jamal Crawford, whose passing...
Hawks ready for business?
Joe Johnson and the Hawks are ready to battle DeShawn Stevenson and Washington the top spot in the Southeast Division this season.
HAWKSVILLE – It’s a fair question to ask at this stage of the (pre)season.
And one the Hawks are more than ready to answer, Monday night,...
What’s in your profile?
Â
Â
There's no identity crisis for Hawks swingman Marvin Williams. He knows exactly who he is. But what do other think of the starting small forward? Find out inside.
Â
HAWKSVILLE – The questions rolled off the tongue much easier than the answer.
I asked Marvin Williams...
Hawks starters good for 20 hot minutes
Â
Get a good early look at Joe Johnson and the Hawks' other starters in preseason games, because they won't be in there long.
 HAWKSVILLE – So this is what the preseason looks like when your team is good enough to know that it means nothing.
The starters play sparingly...
Come see for yourself
Â
