Not that I think anyone here has only the slightest interest in that but "Vogel" means "Bird" in german.
What a weird game that was... Pissers seems to have forgotten how to play since ASG.

The Monstars seems to have taken their talents or perhaps bad chemistry after the trade deadline. They should have been better with Turner with them but Turner seemed to suck more with the Pacers than he was with the Sixers.

Heat players should start yelling "go Vogel!" whenever Anderson throws a putback...

Stephenson is a douchebag. The immaturity overshadows his talent. :shake:

Of all the things I read from Woj that piece has to be the most terrible so far. It's like he just shat on his keyboard and added mentions about the Pacers to make it appear readable.
HE'S USING HYPNOSIS!

Wtf is going on to the Pacers? I know their troubles have been going on for months now but demn they were my favorites in the East and they are now imploding.

Lance Stephenson troubles is nothing new, he did not play much in his rookie season because of that.

It was noted a few weeks ago that Roy Hibbert's numbers this season are very similar to Kwame Brown's from ten years ago, though one is considered an All-Star and the other is considered a bust. Right now, he's certainly looking like Kwame.

Teague got away with that crazy 3 point shot though... he's left foot is clearly out of bounds... I don't know if the refs just somewhat ignore it or perhaps they're attention is if he shot it on time...

Take away that three though, and it's still a reasonably comfortable margin of victory for the eighth seeded Hawks.

But at that time (when they reviewd it) they're only up by 7 and the Pacers is somewhat starting to make a run...

True, it's something of a momentum killer, and you do of course want the referees to get obvious calls right. Still, if you want to win the games that matter the most, you don't want to be in that position where you have to not only make a furious run, but rely on every call being correct for things to fall into place.

If the Pacers get eliminated in the first round, its gonna be smooth sailing for the Heat. Imagine wizards and Hawks in round 2 with miami

You never know about Wizards. They've got a loaded team with experience, youth and talent.

Miami Killer getting killed by a Cast of Hawks.

Sounds about right.

Don't count out on red hot BKN. They match up pretty well against the Heat and hold 4-0 record during the season. Depth, size, and Paul Pierce should bother them greatly.

What the heck just happened? I watched the first quarter and was a close game. Now the Hawks are up by 27 near the end of 3rd quarter. :lol:

Ahhh I missed a good part of the game.
