Congrats.
A 102-101 loss in the game billed as the Battle of the Basement, no two teams in NBA history had ever entered a game with just three combined wins after 30 games, was the latest heartbreaker in a season full of them for the Hawks, who lost for the fourth consecutive time and stand at 2-13.
"This hurts, man," a dejected Johnson said from his seat in the Hawks locker room after the game. "This hurts real bad. I don't really care what the numbers look like. When the game was on the line, we didn't come up with the key defensive stops and it cost us the game."
"We know we're a better team than they are," Johnson said. "And we let them play harder than we did early in the game. They've got those two active big guys, and they're young, and they just ate us alive. Like I said, this one is really hard to take because it's yet another one of these games that we should have been able to win, and we didn't."

He doesn't shoot well (under 40% from the field), or from the arc (14%, 3/21), is respectible at the line (86% on only 29 attempts), grabs 2 boards per game, just over half a steal, and nearly 2 turnovers, while putting up 6 ppg...
... am I missing something here? People seem to be really high on a guy who can dish 6 dimes a game and not a whole heck of a lot else. Or are the Raptors really grasping that far to try and find upside??

You're like 3:15. And that doesn't look like a 1st pick record to you?
