Sacha Baron Cohen's New Guy Is Tall [Zaza Hits The Mic]
Deadspin —
Wait a minute, where did all of those Hawks fans come from?
Seriously though, GAME SEVEN! Wheeeee!

When Zaza Gets Up on the Mic, He Rocks the Mic Riiiiiiiight
FanHouse —
Filed under: Hawks, Eastern, NBA Playoffs, AtlantaThe Atlanta Hawks sure are fun aren't they? And popular, too! Atlanta does love it's Hawks. And the Hawks love them right back. Witness Zaza Pachulia's post game "speech" whereby he yells things about Game 7. You really have to love this guy, even though if I were his teammates, I'd be fairly sick of his armpit snare/hugs. As much as I absolutely love the Hawks, this team is still like the 2001 Carolina Hurricanes in terms of fan behavior. Via ...
Zaza Pachulia is Somewhat Excited About the Atlanta Hawks
MVN Outsider —
After the Atlanta Hawks completed a stunning 103-100 victory over Boston on Friday and sent their series to a seventh game, MC Pachulia (aka Hawks big man Zaza Pachulia) stepped up to the mic for a postgame interview, disregarded the question he was asked by the interviewer, and babbled some thoughts about the upcoming seventh game. Take a looksie:
“We love you! Whooo!”
If you would have told any NBA fan that, out of the eight opening round playoff series, the Celtics-Hawks matchup would be the only series to go the full seven games, you would have been declared a certified nut. But these Hawks have shown some ...
Hawks force a game 7: Can they actually pull off the upset?
Hail Mary Jane —
The Hawks have done a decent job in their bid to be this years Golden State Warriors. They’ve given the leagues best team all they can handle and last night was no exception. The Hawks again beat the Celtics at home 103-100 to force a pivotal game 7 in Boston.
During the game, Paul Pierce fouled out and he wasn’t too happy about but at least he didn’t throw up any gang signs.
His face when he was on the bench was classic.
Here are the final seconds of game 6 and how ...

top 25 reasons to be excited for next season #21: Zaza fighting people
Zaza's Playground —
Zaza is a man of peace when it matters most. But on the basketball court, or in the locker room, he farts in the general direction of serenity and kindness. At Seasons 52, I saw him snap a man’s jaw with his own jaw. And even if that is not totally true, my friend saw him there once and I saw him try to fight Kevin Garnett. Put the two together and we are basically talking about Zaza Pachullia: basketball enforcer/fine dining ass kicker. Or at least that is what we need him to be. For a man slow on ...
Why I'm Scared, And Why I'm Not: Atlanta
Bullets Forever —
In the coming weeks, I'm going to try (emphasis on try) and analyze our competitors in the Southeast Division and take a look at what makes them dangerous in the coming season, and what helps us sleep easier at night. This is kind of like the community projections except that:
A) No predictions on records will be made.
B) This series will be conducted in bullet point form as opposed to paragraph form.
C) These only pertain to the Southeast Division.
D) These will generally be much more poorly written than the Community Projections.
But other than that, they're kind of the ...
Game 4: Hive Live
At The Hive —
Atlanta 87 (3-0) | New Orleans 79 (3-1)
Congratulations CP3: you almost beat the Atlanta Hawks. It might have helped if the rest of your team had showed up, but alas, you had no such luck. Of course, you've really got to hand it to this Hawks team for dialing in a strong performance (especially after beating the likes of Orlando and Philly).
Anyone who tuned into this game probably doesn't want to relive it, but for those of you who did see it, here's the recap in a nutshell:
Atlanta: 24 assists 45 rebounds, 12 3PM
New Orleans: 19 assists 35 rebounds, 7 3PM

Ain’ t that Pachulia
perkisabeast.com Blog —
Georgian meat head Zaza “Gabor” Pachulia and his band of ragged winged doves show up in Boston tonight to have their cute little win streak broken. I don’t need to remind you the last time these two met do I? Of course I do. By the way, do you know he has his own web site? My favorite part is the flash intro and the ripping off of the Bulls old entrance music interspersed with pictures of Pachulia shootig jumpers. There’s a lot of amazing stuff on there so poke around, including videos of he and KG going at it. The NBA. It’s fantastic. ...
Morning Link Dump - Erin Andrews, Pujols, Knicks, Zaza Pachulia
TheScore.com Blog —
Obligatory Sports Babe By the laws that govern all sports blogs, at least once every three months you must find a way to objectify Erin Andrews, and here at theScore.com Blog, we're not the type to run afoul of the law. So, here she last night at a UNC basketball game, doing her part to save the sweater industry. Albert Pujols Likes the Soccer The newly crowned NL MVP would like to bring an MLS team to St. Louis. Of course, the bid he's backing is throwing their hat into the same ring that Montreal and Vancouver are already in, so... if I were Albert I wouldn't hold my ...
Game notes: Knicks at Hawks
SLAM Online —
by Zettler Clay IV
I’m going to attempt to one-up Russ Bengston: Nobody from Coney Island will land in this article. There. It’s done.
Turning into the Hawks media parking lot, a policeman’s lights started shining in my peripheral. Is it? No, it couldn’t be. Yup, it’s for me. Before I set foot inside of Philips Arena, I am saddled with a ticket for not wearing a seat belt. That still happens?
So along with a cop pulling me over for the requisite 10-15 minutes and Atlanta’s notorious traffic, I arrived unfashionably late. Well not late, but too late to scurry all the pre-game comments I planned to ...
You know you’re good when…
perkisabeast.com Blog —
Other teams base their entire ticket sales strategy on losing a seven game series to you. Look at this laughable piece of marketing the ticket sales guys at the Atlanta Hawks have put together called “Rivalry Renewed.” This video sucks so bad they should have titled it “The Glory Hole.”
You’d think they actually won the series. Listen closely for the “They can’t stop Joe Johnson,” call from Sean Grande and the thunderclap sound effects when Pachulia knocks his head into KG. Priceless. Almost as good as… ...

Friday Afternoon Nap - May 8th
TheScore.com Blog —
Let's get through this wretched Friday afternoon together, shall we? + Dukes, barons, viscounts, and earls are applauding the Yankees' recent decision to cut prices on dugout and foul-line field-level seats in half, from as much as $2,500 per game down to an amount the minor houses consider far more reasonable. [The Onion] + Turns out Ron Artest wasn't just blowing smoke when he told reporters that he was once in a basketball game where someone died from taking a wooden table leg to the heart. [Mouthpiece Sports] + Parliament wants seal skin incorporated into Canadian Olympic uniforms. Y'know, because they hate ...
Foresight is 20/20
The No-Look Pass —
Everyone knows that the Clippers have made some terrible draft picks in the past and they've been in the lottery more often than some people play the lottery. The past is painful for Clipper fans but let's take a look at some of the draft picks of the past decade with foresight being 20/20.
Let's start with 2001 (because Michael Jordan's second three-peat seems to be the only thing I remember from 1998). The Clippers ended up with the second pick and selected Compton's finest, Tyson Chandler and traded him for some guy. Who was the guy that was available as the third pick? Pau Gasol.

Great Sports Name Hall of Fame Wannabee - Zaza Pachulia
Great Sports Name Hall of Fame —
First of all, I have to say that Zaur "Zaza" Pachulia is the freakin' man. Not just because of his sweet get up in the photo above. But also because of he isn't afraid of Kevin Garnett, parties with Busta Rhymes (and Al "Jesus" Horford), knows that "Nothing is Easy" and even promotes peace in his ...
Looking Forward: Atlanta Hawks
Vittorio De Zen's Fast Break —
The Atlanta Hawks were pretty good last season. By pretty good, I mean they finished with a 47-35 record, which was enough to net them home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs. They were 10th in offensive efficiency and 11th in defensive efficiency – a solid, but not elite club. They beat the Miami Heat in the most unwatchable 7-game playoff ...

Countdown to the NBA Season: A-Z
Courtside —
We're just over a month away from the start of the 2009-2010 NBA regular season. Freaking finally. Hallelujah. As we countdown, I thought I'd go through a list from A-Z of things I am excited for this season. Unfortunately, the alphabet is only 26 letters and I've got about 26,000 things I'm looking forward to. Here are 26 to get you excited.
Allen Iverson. Call it a fresh start, a gimmick to fill seats, a Memphis revival. Call it whatever you want. The important thing here is
that Allen is playing bball for at least another season. I wasn't
nearly ready to let him go and now I don't have to for at least 82 more
games.

NOTHING EASY!
Peachtree Hoops —
It is one of the great travesties of western civilization that this pep talk did not work, but if anything could, this would be the speech with a year and half worth of staying power. So I will go with the half bearded, Eastern European, man who cannot jump because he is weighed down by awesome, NOTHING EASY!
