Joe finished two lay-ups in the third quarter in considerable traffic, moderately airborne! I wanna see more!

When I see Joe Johnson, I think Ron Harper. Remember that guy? I was very young, but seem to remember him being around a 20-5-5 guy when leading the Cavs' and Clippers' poor teams for a couple of years. The type of guy who, as your 2nd and a 1/2th option, could ensure you multiple championships. Did Michael Jordan more of a service than people ever realize, then carried it to L.A. for a year and jewelry. I see you, Ron! Shout out to Mitch Richmond, too!

This is the clamp-down defense that Woody spoke of in the fourth. Joe had Rose under arrest. Bibby looked like he was in Sactown circa 2001 (this guy needs a lifetime achievement All-Star nod.) Flip gobbled loose balls. Great win, guys. Woody Haters, simmer down. Hawks, let's go. Forget that converastion blog on the parent site. Check out the box score, the shot chart, and come on over here. This is the blog you need to be on, Hawks fans.
