... so many times.
And to all the Outlaw supporters out there, I could care less that the guy had 9 points down the stretch to keep the game close. Close isn't a win. His plus/minus on the game was -8 and he was out of position at least a half dozen times in the second half which turned into uncontested layups for Atlanta. Obviously, he's not the only guy at fault, but you could put him at the top of the list.

The problem right now is sustaining those results. Never was this more on display than in Tuesday night's game at the Rose Garden. Momentum constantly switched back and forth. The Blazers led by as many as 12, but couldn't find the combination to ultimately lead them to a win. Ben's media row report from Blazer's Edge: While the offensive rhythm and execution were obviously lacking, it was the ...

... that make you wonder why he hasn't been able to put it all together consistently.
And it is true. The Hawks are working. As the team walked off the court, the camera cut to Woody clapping and saying "nice effort, nice effort." It was as affirming and nonchalant as it should be. The Hawks are playing 48 minutes. Great. It is what good teams do.

It was also, I’m guessing, not dissimilar to how many ...
