With or without you, it’s GAME TIME!
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
HAWKSVILLE- It appears that neither Zaza Pachulia nor Acie Law IV will play for the Hawks tonight against the Orlando Magic when the teams square off at Philips Arena. Both were absent during this morning’s shootaround practice.
Sounds like a prime time opportunity for not only Solomon Jones but also Randolph Morris to use up some of their fouls on Dwight Howard. The guard rotation stays basically the same, with Flip Murray logging the minutes behind both Joe Johnson and Mike Bibby.
Marvin Williams went through shootaround without a hitch (or the sleeve he was expected to wear on his sore left shoulder), though he has ditched the Marv-Hawk hairdo he had been sporting since the start of the Hawks’ eight-game home stand from last month. New look for the New Year I guess.
Anyone care to toss any pre-game predictions this way? I’m guessing it’s going to be yet another Hawks’ home game with playoff intensity and the home team is pretty tough to beat (15-2 and counting) on this floor.
Either way and with or without you, it’s (almost) GAME TIME!!!!!!!!
