Video - Al Horford is not very intelligent

The Atlanta Hawks sure know how to motivate their opponents. Rookie Al Horford taunts a fallen Paul Pierce during the final minute of a Hawks win at Phillips Arena.

he was excited, they will still be beaten in 5.

but at least they can say they are better than Denver and Phoenix

Uh, what?

Stop hating on Al, who is Paul Pierce, just another NBA player like Al Horford. I guess it is ok for Boston players to taunt and laugh at the Hawks in the first 2 games, but now Al should be worried. He had plenty opportunity to get back at Al last night, but didn't. This is the NBA, WIN OR GET TAUNTED.

"who is paul pierce???" are you friggin kidding me?! who is al horford!? a rookie without a lick of sense. bibby was a chump, that's why he got booed. they get what they give.

Another win for the Hawks, once again Paul who? What happen to the 40 points that was predicited as retaliation for the taunt. He is the one paying a fine for menacing gesters. All you Boston fans need to stop crying and man up, once again this the NBA and Al Horford is and will be a force to recond with. Oh by the way in answer to question as to who is all Horford. 2 time NCAA champion, a rookie who scored 20 points 11 rebounds against your Boston Celtics in Boston. Back to back double doubles against your Boston Celtics and one of the best players to enter this league in a long time. Your boy Paul had to wait on KG and Ray Allen before his team could do anything. Al came in the league and joined one of the worst teams in the league and "BAM" they made the playoffs and have tied up the series with your Boston Celtics. So if you don't know who he is you better recognize, Al ain't no joke.

we're not crying, and i'm pretty sure you're not quite intelligent. when was the last time al horford was an all star? when was the last time he scored 30 or more points in 12 consecutive games? how many ncaa champions are in the nba now? plenty. al horford is still a green, clumsy player in a lot of respects (remember that foul on tj ford?) and that's me giving him the benefit of the doubt and not calling him a dirty player, although he has the makings of one.

so.
30 points in 12 consecutive games.
50 points in a game
46 points in a half
a 33.6 ppg average back in 2006
2,144 points in the 2001-2002 season, which was the number one spot, btw
6-time NBA all star
member of the USA national team.

who is al horford again? right, a rookie who's doing well on a young team, but a rookie who's still exceptionally messy in his play. when's the last time he did all that?

OH, and in case you didn't notice from actually watching that game last night, joe johnson won that game for them. if they didn't have him, they wouldn't have a hope. rookies can only do so much.

gotta love sam bot +1

My My My a little emotional aren't you. Rember Al is a rookie and just getting started. All I can say is I am still waiting on the 40 points from Paul.

but you SAID he EARNED all those things. rookies don't earn accolades. they learn how to get them. read your own statements next time around and maybe you can form a decent argument.

wow, you got guts saying a perennial all-star is "just another NBA player..."

that's as intelligent as what horford did.

Proof is in the pudding baby. If you stop hating and give credit where credit is due you would see that Al Horford is not your everyday ordinary rookie. He came in the league NBA ready. That is what is the problem in this league, players get superstar status and haven't did anything to earn it. Even Michael Jordan said it. I am a true fan of the game, and in my book you have to earn your props, I just don't jump on the band wagon with everyone else. You probably have never even watched Al Horford play until now. I have seen him play many times and the man is awesome night after night.

are u implying that paul pierce hasnt earned status? cause if u are, youre pretty effin stupid.

wait, so where was the pudding on wednesday? where's baby dirty foul horford's rookie of the year pudding?

exactly.

That's showing em AL! Way to tell him him know the Hawks are up 2-1 in this series! .... Oh wait that's right they AREN'T! The NBA: ''Where Boston will have THE LAST LAUGH HAPPENS!''

Take out the extra him y'all! my oops! lol!

I completely screwed up my blog! Anyhow Boston will win OK JEEZ!

big deal - like they had the Celtics right where they wanted them until Al Horford taunded Paul Pierce and awakened the sleeping giant?

haha what a moron

That's the best moment I've seen in the playoffs. Horford's gonna get lit up in Game 4, but it was fun to watch. It reminded me of AI stepping over Tyronn Lue in the Finals against the Lakers.

You would have thought he'd learned something from Deshawn. Guess not.

Al Horford had no right to do that. He obviously has no respect for Paul Pierce. As a rookie, I feel like he's obligated to respect his elders, especially a skilled, talented veteran such as Pierce.
