Thanks in advance!

 

[Dr. Dumas]

[AmareFan]

What a sad, sad day. It shouldn't have come to this, it just shouldn't have.

 

[Chaplin]

What a sad, sad day. It shouldn't have come to this, it just shouldn't have.

Are you kidding? This is a great day. This farce is finally being resolved and we can move on. Joe Johnson can rot in Atlanta for all I care. He can be a superstar there, but he won't be giving Atlanta any championships, that's for damn sure.

 

[mribnik]

Yay! We no longer have to watch JJ NOT passing the ball down to Amare.

 

[PrimeTime]

True, I am glad this whole mess is resolved. I just wish that JJ hadn't did what he did.

 

[mribnik]

Mine's not working. Anybody else having trouble with it, or has it just not started yet? 12:03

 

[AmareFan]

It works now...try now

 

[fordronken]

Will it be on ESPN News or NBATV?

 

[mribnik]

It works now...try now

Got it, thanks!

 

[PrimeTime]

Guess its too much to ask for video.. what a pathetic organization

 

[AmareFan]

Not on ESPN news or NBA tv as of right now..just checked.

 

[Djaughe]

At least we got to look at the hot chicks during the suns press conference...waiting an listen to crowd noise kinda sucks.

 

[PrimeTime]

lol, so true, so true. Except for that fanny pack lady

 

[haverford]

Yay! We no longer have to watch JJ NOT passing the ball down to Amare.

That's very true, and just about the only good I see coming out his loss.

 

[AmareFan]

hawks just updated their home page...with JOE>

 

[mribnik]

I think Joe Johnson just realized that he's going to the Hawks. It's probably taking them all this time to locate him. Either that, or 3 people showed up instead of 2, and they are looking for an extra chair. Belkin took it with him I suppose.

 

[Dr. Jones]

The Hawks on Friday obtained Joe Johnson from the Phoenix Suns for Boris Diaw and two conditional first round picks. The high-flying Johnson, who begins his fifth NBA season in 2005-06, was one of the catalysts behind the resurgence of the Suns and their 62-20 record, which garnered the franchise’s first Pacific Division title since 1994-95. The 33-game improvement ranks as the third-best in league history. “Joe has tremendous upside and provides our franchise with a player whose talents are worthy of All-Star consideration,” said Hawks Exec. VP & GM Billy Knight.

1st one: He dunked like 12 times last year.

2nd one: Is that what 70 million gets you in Atlanta?

lol, he's not exactly high flying is he?

 

[Chaplin]

They better thank the Suns for putting up with this crap.

 

[AmareFan]

The conference has started and the announcer had the following to say....

“Glorious day in Atlanta Hawks history”...what BS>>..let's see what happens next....

 

[PrimeTime]

Its just sickening that the worse GM in the league, will announce this deal for the worse organization in the NBA. A player the suns painstakingly groomed to be 1/2 of the franchise and face of the suns for years to come.
