    On balance, six wins in a row is a big accomplishment given the backdrop of this team's evolution since the rebuild began.

    On balance, six wins in a row probably shouldn't be quite as celebrated as it's being celebrated in this thread, when one considers what we actually were up against...

    I hear ya...but these are the SAME types of teams we kept losing to before. So 🤷🏾‍♂️

    I won’t kid.  I figured we would pull it out but was getting worried at the end of the third.  Got ugly for a bit.

    You know the feeling the Falcons gave you EVERY. SINGLE. GAME. in 2016? Yeah, that's what I was feeling starting with the 3rd. You knew we were better and would likely win, but damnit, they were going to make their fans sweat it out to the end!

    Have no reason to doubt Shams, but besides the new bad news for Cam, I'm surprised that an actual Hawks beat writer didn't beat him to that intel. Suppose it must have been relayed by another GM in the midst of a trade proposal conversation (?).

    And I thought most everyone was happy with our wing depth anyhow... so much so, that Cam was going to find it difficult to get any minutes upon his return... why is this now a concern? Snell was going to get Cam's minutes anyhow, no?

    Besides the obvious hit to depth and Cam's development, the other reason so many are probably upset is because it means we get to continue to see Solomon freakin Hill log way more minutes than he should.

    I wasn't quoting you. If I wanted to quote you I would 🙂 I just saw in the thread some back and forth about LP/Nate.

    I have no interest in carrying out a pogrom against LP. He's fired. He deserved to be fired. I'm just happy that a real coach in Nate is showing what this team can actually do. That's it. I don't need to feel vindicated about a decision I had nothing to do with. I'm just enjoying the results of it as a fan of the team. I can't speak for anyone else but myself.

    Very well then. The words you used were eerily similar (the same in some respects like "piling on," etc.), so even though it was apparently coincidental, it was logical for me to draw the conclusion.

    We good.

    I don't know how anyone can see this team under Nate and look at the joke coach we had before and not want to compare them. It isn't piling on to point out that LP was terrible and a real HC is making a literal night and day difference with the same roster. Same players. Same injuries. Same season for crying out loud.

    Very happy to have a five win streak. Let's keep it rock and rolling. I don't care about being right or wrong about any coach or player. I just want the Hawks to win. We're doing that, let's be happy!

    I'll respond because this was pretty much quoting me.

    My only point was boils down to this: It's beyond obvious that this team looks [K]night and day different than when LP was here. But good lord these game threads, topics and discussions quickly devolve and degenerate into a Nate vs LP discussion that has been weaponized and beat to ad infinitum. I have no interest in it, and I hope to see this sharply decrease so we can focus on the current team we have with the current head coach.

    But for those that wish to indulge in it, more power to you.

    I have no interest in piling on LP at this point. It was clear the results weren't there due to all the reasons that have been stated, and he got the axe because of it. The Hawks are winning now and that's all I care about. Zero interest in kicking a dude while he's down no longer here.
