I haven't posted in forever! Glad to be back here after lurking so long lol. I'm not going to predict results of all these games, because I hope the team isn't thinking ahead more than 1. 1 at a time. I feel that Lakers game is winnable. Why? They are on the 1st game of B2B, with the 2nd game against the Suns, it also helped the Hornets gave them enough scare to extend the starters minutes, giving them even more incentive to manage time of starters a little more against us..

We've missed that since Sap and DMC left ( I refuse to give Coach Bud credit lol)

Happy Birthday Gray, here is to many more! I had a relative who lived over 100. You're living right as he did!

too big a risk! easy pass for me too.

Yup sign me up!

Knock on WOOD! pun intended

You in rare form Spud

Will do, thanks! Wasn't there another interesting PG prospect in the mid 1st round ? I can't remember who it was. This is a good PG draft so many Schlenky can work his magic.

I like Okongwu but I don't see the need if Ded, Capela, and John are divvying up minutes and we might possibly have a shot at Bertans in FAcy? I see the need for backup PG, don't see Teague as long term answer thats why I like Halliburton. Saddiq Bey I will have to research lol

https://thebasketballnetwork.com/tyrese-haliburton-killian-hayes-whos-better/ This author picks Halliburton... I think he could help a lot, seems like the guy who can take pressure off Trae. I wouldn't be mad at selecting a wing player like Okoro or Hayes alternatively

I agree, there is no sure fire pick in the top 3 this year. There are a few potential all stars but they can be picked anywhere in the top 10. Stand pat.

I can't be mad at us getting Hayes, Okongwu, or Okoro either. Those are all guys that can help.

Haliburton

I showed up very late for the poll so I couldn't pick but if I could it would be #1! Lets go Hawks!

I was very impressed with him having been fortunate enough to see a couple of his games where he played extended minutes with the blazers on ESPN. I definitely think if his health gets back where it was then he has some tools the Hawks can use in the front court. when the Blazers are healthy they didn't have the minutes for him. Nurkic was out a long time.

Very few of these NBA review folks know our team as per usual lol

And Helena Blavatsky (Theosophy)

I agree, go with what works! The Hawks have players like Trae and Cam that can absolutely dominate in transition. Clint will help the D-Rebounding a lot. Him together with Collins should have the Hawks doing good work on the glass most nights.

Its one of those GOOD problems to have, certainly. I guess Joe was the last guy we had that was coveted by a few teams, but Trae by more than a few, most likely more than half!

Some of what you say is true and that is why Schlenk must put together a competitive squad for the next season to avert that.

Sorry I should have specified that the stats there were for all the national cases, not state specific. I think the CDC tracks those of individual states as well I just haven't dug in to them.

Yes ma'am! Attached here. Hospitalization rates have been high for a while and still creeping up now at 300 per 100,000 for population age 65+.. it looks like the 50+ group also rose some still too high. Hopefully that comes down. I would also like to see this for each state separately.

Testing up, % of positive results down from cumulative since 3/18 at 7.6% for the data last reported for the week 6/13 -6/20 according to CDC . There is a 4-6 day lag for all the data CDC also reports. Since 3/18 the % of tests that reported positive are 9.9% https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/covid-data/covidview/index.html

Hiya Spud! Kevin McHale to me was a system player, give him an average supporting cast I don't think he was good enough to put up monster numbers with any kind of efficiency. He had a slick post game but with Bird and Parish playing alongside him he had more room to operate that wouldn't have been there were he surrounded by lesser guys (90% of the league lol).
