I'd to see if you have any input on how likely this is prior to the start of the game tomorrow, and am also curious what impact you think he might have in the game.<BR/><BR/>I can't help but like Mario. He's a non-factor on the offensive end, especially against a good defensive team like Boston, and leaving him for a long stretch would really be harmful. But he does bring a lot of energy to the floor, which the Hawks have certainly been lacking in Boston. I'd like to see him come in and try to bother Ray Allen for a few minutes at the beginning, then commit a good hard foul on Pierce before getting yanked.<BR/><BR/>Say what you will, in his last start he did have a positive impact on the boards, grabbing 4 offensive rebounds in 16 minutes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8912756.post-61747940065126442392008-05-03T13:38:00.000-04:002008-05-03T13:38:00.000-04:00Dear me, forgot to mention Kenny Smith, the bigges...Dear me, forgot to mention Kenny Smith, the biggest doubter of all.

Sports had another great Woodson quote, further showing his delusional mental state.<BR/><BR/>“All those doubters, they’ve never played a lick of basketball in their lives,” Hawks coach Mike Woodson sniffed. <BR/><BR/>Just by way of stating the obvious, a couple of those TNT basketball analysts who doubted the Hawks are Charles Barkley and Chris Webber. I could run up a full tally, but surely I don't need to go farther?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
