Lol eat shit regardless. Maybe one day you’ll admit that Trae is good and you were wrong. But keep doing you.
Wasn’t it you who said we’d get swept? Heck I think you posted it every Atlanta related thread including Smoltzy we may not win the series but we were also supposed to lose to the Knicks
i literally haven’t posted in a single atlanta thread about the hawks or any of the atlanta threads in general besides the braves thread to talk about baseball
I just wanted to take a little trip down memory lane to revisit the bet dallasdawg and I made made but it seems dtx has supplanted him in this thread I feel like my prognostication was pretty on point here. haha still a good point all around and we definitely have a long way to climb through this Philly series, but I'm excited at the prospect. I have asthma and I did not I stand by my point. I am not I believe this is true, and I believe we have seen Trae grow leaps and bounds in this offense under Nate. He has a much better idea of what his role is and it's made a huge difference in the success of the team. kemba ain't there kp is not and never will be an elite talent rick carlisle is fine probably the nba team that has done the worst at surrounding their superstar with talent I conceded 7-8 was shortsighted but that 5 seed was right on that is the defending champs lakers correct on okc and san antonio but whiffed pretty hard on utah considering they were the 1 haha your wisdom is shining through Tobias with respect to the Mavs I feel like this is true. Luka is a stud So I'm two Hawks wins from locking up my half of the bet. The Mavs still have next season as well, but I had remembered about 3 pages of myself getting absolutely hornswoggled for having what I thought was a legitimate take. Maybe my dark horse favorite take is the continual thought players are rushing to come play for the Mavs. No Kemba, no Klay, but I guess Hawk reject THJ and Josh Richardson counts for something. Maybe next season. The Hawks may end up losing 4 in a row and they would still have outdone everyone fan or foe's expectations on the season, especially with respect to how Lloyd was running the team into the ground. This 3-4 page back and forth reignited my Hawks fandom after some dormant years in between the Budz run and I look forward to continually support the team moving forward.
This is wonderful word docing, but you’ve made the rookie mistake of counting chickens before they’ve hatched.
There’s no chickens to be counted. I clearly said we may lose in 5, and I also said the Mavs still have next year. This isn’t a jinx at all. This is simply pointing out the narrative around this team has been wrong and the other narrative around the Mavs to this point in time is even more wrong. This is an Atlanta sports franchise—a message board post cannot make it any worse than it already is.
who knew beating one of the most notorious perennial losers in american sports would be such an accomplishment
Would love to know the Arlington-Dallas-LA connection. Though I do respect your fandom to perennial losers (stars the exception)
It’s weird to not have any rooting interest yet be so into the NBA. Open yourself up to some heartache
