    Default Horford Cite's Lack Of Passionate Fanbase Why He Left Didn't Want To Play With DWight

    Quote from horford's dad

    Factor No. 1, according to league sources: Horford was none too pleased with how reluctant the Hawks were to come forward with a full five-year max. Factor No. 2: Atlanta's signing of Dwight Howard. Could there be a more contradicting force in the NBA to Horford than Howard, in terms of substance vs. style?

    "He didn't want to play with Dwight," a person familiar with the situation told CBS Sports.

    Nothing we didn't already know. At least for regular season games, the Hawks are one of the worse fan bases in the league. Reminds me of Tampa Bay Rays in the MLB when they were good beating the likes of the the Red Sox and Yankees. No one cared.

    Somebody should tell Tito to shove a taco in it.

    It sounds like an excuse for mediocre play to me.

    So, if the fans don't react the way you want, you'll give up on your team? Teammates and everything?

    Anyone who has watched Al play could see how he turns to marsh mellow when things get tough. How is he going to feel when Boston fans get annoyed with his 2 and 3 rebound performances?

    We'll see if his play improves a ton in Boston... My guess is that it will not.

    Well it's come out that Horford is a quitter when it doesn't go his way. There ya go Boston. He actually didn't play his hardest so he could cash out this offseason LMAO! Now he got his money I don't see why he'd ramp it back up.

    I was bashing Horford all season long. He sandbagged it.

    He is a declining player. He will continue to do so.

    Lets see how passionate the Celtics will be after a patented 2 rebound game in the playoffs.

    Doesn't come across as a winner. Definitely not a impact player.
