  1. I think it would simpler to have a Home and Travel team.  Pretty much keep the outline you have created.  For instance on this long road trip we could have had the starters go out for a few game and then brought them back for some home games this weekend.   Or just if the home schedule was week let the 2nd five play at home and try to steal a few roadies.

    This part makes me more nervous for the implication than for the actual substance... my wife being Filipino. I won't begrudge the idea that some very, very limited number of people out there are anti-Asian right now over some contempt for China's part in the pandemic. But it's so so so overblown, and needlessly potentially causing some paranoia with people like my wife, who are being led by the ever-racially-insistent corporate media to think everything is racially-oriented. This, it's turned out as far as I've heard or read, is attributable to people having vaginas more than people having a certain color of skin... and attributable to the perp's own moral/mental/internal problems.

    I think you have a blind spot.

    Remove the free throw percentage and redo it. 

    Why?  There have been some some outstanding FT shooters in this league.  Most of the elite guards are expected to be high 80's

    I wasn't completely sold on Trae, until I saw him live.  That kid works so hard to score, and has that superstar swagger that no Hawk since Dominique has had on the court.  Of course, it helped that this was the first game I saw him live.

     

     

    Man he damn near had a 40-20 triple double one of the games I attended.  It was like watching Vick/Sanders/Nique/96 Braves

     in the glory days.

    From a national TV standpoint, the Hawks have one game on ESPN (March 26 at Golden State) and one game on TNT (Apr. 15 against Milwaukee). Atlanta also has four NBA TV games, beginning on March 28 in Denver and including Apr. 4 against Golden State, Apr. 25 against Milwaukee and May 10 against Washington.

     

  6. Offenses in every sport are taught to stretch defensive philosophy until it breaks.  It's cyclical.  Defenses will adjust and offenses will re-adjust.  Biggest thing they could do is stop resetting the clock to 14.  Reset it to 10 and reward good defense.  Also, increase the lane count to 5.  Give big guys time to establish position in the paint and get a shot up.  Give teams 5 seconds to advance past halfcourt reward full-court pressure.
