Post Dallas
Greetings, all- Hope you enjoyed the game Saturday night. My thoughts: - No matter how the Hawks shot the ball, holding Dallas to 75 points in its building is an impressive feat. It’s Dallas’ season low. - As I made mention in the game story, the Hawks played far better ...

Got it out of your system?
Somewhere over Alabama or Mississippi – I’m on my way to Dallas. It struck me as odd that I’ll be in Atlanta and Dallas today, but am covering neither the SEC or Big 12 championship. Anyway, my quick take on the New York loss. Obviously, losing Josh Smith was huge, in that ...

Hawks-Knicks thread
Hello, all- Hope you’ll be somewhere to see the game. I’ve got to get down there before I get stuck in SEC traffic. Things I’ll be watching 1) What do the Hawks do with Al Harrington ? The former Hawk busted out for 21 in the first game and had control of the game in the ...

Moving on
blogs.ajc.com — 6:26 p.m. My apologies. I thought this had posted this morning. Wow. Impressive performance last night. As... I wrote in my story, I think a lot of things went into it. Toronto is a poor defensive team and was on the end of a back-to-back. The Hawks ... (more) Moving on
On to December
Hey, folks- Sorry for the delay. No good excuse, just a lot going on. Anyway, some thoughts about the game tonight. Again, like Detroit, it’s a game the Hawks should win, only more so, given that they’re at home. Toronto has lost four in a row and five of the last six. Plus, I ...

Hawks-Pistons
What’s up? Hope all are well and enjoying the last day of Thanksgiving break. Looks pretty good for the Hawks this afternoon, you’d think. Detroit is without Rip Hamilton , Tayshaun Prince and most likely Ben Gordon and have lost seven in a row. Nothing is beyond possible in ...

Hawks-Sixers
Greetings, all- We’ve got a pretty good test for a number of reasons. You’d have to think this is a game the Hawks should win, particularly if they’re torqued off about how they finished last night. The Hawks are a better team than Philly, plus the Sixers are missing point ...

Magic-Hawks
Happy Thanksgiving, all- I hope you all have had joyful times of sharing with family and friends today before settling into some Hawks basketball. (and thanks, Honest Abe, for the kind words about the story. And, while I’m on that topic, thanks to all of you all for making me feel ...

Talking about minutes
Greetings- Hope you are doing well. It looks like Mike Bibby will play, at least from what Jeff Teague said . For what it’s worth, Bibby looked fine walking around the practice court and locker room. (For the time media were allowed into practice, he was sitting on a trainer’s ...

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 not much ...

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 has ...

Whaddya know?
blogs.ajc.com — 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 ... (more) Whaddya know?
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 they ...

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
blogs.ajc.com — 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 ... (more) Big shoes to fill
