  5. Official Game Thread: Hawks at Pelicans

    Before last night's game, "We will discover how good we are when 100% healthy."

    Unfortuntally, we found out.  We are not really as good as most of us had hoped.  Every starter had a (-) and our four bench players had a (+).  Hunter had a terrible shooting night.  Young had a terrible shooting night.

    It's a fact.  If our shots are not falling, we can't win.  The entire team is not good enough to win if they can't hit a good % of their shots.  Hawks can't contain any opponent.  If they can't score well, they have no chance.

    We now know that this Atlanta Hawk team is a .500 team.  Too bad to be great and too good to be sorry.  Not Hot.  Not cold.  Luke warm - - That's us.

    I want to know.  This is at least two recent games where every starter was (-) and every non starter was (+) for the game.  Our starters play the opponent's starters and our bench plays their bench.  Sounds like a good reason.  Last night, two starters couldn't score.  The other three couldn't carry the team.  

    Last night the starters awoke to begin the game to find themselves deep in the hole.  "What happened?"  The game started and you were asleep!  We weren't intrested.  Blame five starters!

    :ahf:

     

    The game changed when the referee did not call that obvious offensive foul where Dre got hit in the lip. He had a bloody lip and had to leave to go to the locker room. NO went on a 6-0 run and never really looked back.

    The Official NBASupes, Sothron, and theCampster Insider Thread - NBA 2022-23 Season

    I have to add that I did hear that Trae wants to stay in Atlanta but Klutch sports, his agency, is looking at potential spots for him if the Hawks don't improve over the offseason. 

    Please read that carefully before you respond. The player wants to stay in Atlanta, his agency is looking out for their client and his best interests for his brand. Trae wants to stay here. The agency wants to see what the Hawks do in the offseason. Then if they don't like it they could start working behind the scene for a trade destination. 

    I am assuming this is what @NBASupeshas been referring to with his posts. 

    His agency should be recruiting to get him more people here. That’s what he wants. The first player to lead the Atlanta Hawks franchise to a championship will be a greater accomplishment than any other accolade anywhere.  Trae is different, he loves those types of challenges. His motto is “be different”.  He already has his money and fame. Time to do something no one else has.

    He needs to get a new agent.

    It's mainly Trae stans. The idea of this team winning without Trae is foreign to them. To me, both him or Murray are replaceable if we are getting an star or superstar in return. Together, they just don't fit. Shit, I would love getting KD for Murray and others bit Brooklyn wouldn't and they would ask for too much in return as Murray has to fan value. No one will go to Brooklyn games to see Murray but they will to see Trae and he's hated by Knick fans. He's the perfect fit to replace KD and would do better with their fanbase. 

    I don't see Trae the way his stans do. He's not that good too me. He's a star, shit fame wise, a true superstar but as a player. He's an elite offensive talent. Especially on the ball but otherwise, he limits teams and while you guys will argue and get mad at me about it, the minute that he could be traded for a player of Durant's ilk, I bet 40% of the posters here will cosign me. 

    Me personally, I would have major questions but money wise. It makes sense. I can make a deal for Durant. Stay under the LT till 2023. In 2023, spend over the LT as I know I got a contender. If I make the right moves, I can be a contender for the next 3 years. That's appealing as hell. As we stand, we are 27-27. We can barely stay healthy. Trae people is putting out feelers. Things ain't fresh in Atlanta. Let that man go to Broadway so he can never miss an all star game again. Give me a damn title or two. That's what I care about. Trae like everyone who ever wore an Atlanta Hawks uniform is just a means to an end to get to the ultimate prize, a NBA title.

    Come on man. You are on a hawks fan website talking down about one of our best players. We don’t want hear that ish here. Criticism is fair but, equating his shortcomings to absolute failure is ridiculous. We are Hawks fans. Trae is a Hawk. No one here is a stan. We want to see success WITH him in our uniform. He is a cornerstone period. We cannot take that for granted.

  18. Trae and DJM snubbed from All Star game

    Yes, I agree there are a lot of divas in the league

    It also is true that some of those guys are not worthy of being an all star over Trae. Even when you consider his poor shooting efficiency to start the season, he is still better than those guys.  Trae had to put up all NBA numbers just to make the allstar team. There is no other way to put it,  Trae is better than those other guards period. Kyrie and Donovan are the only two players, this year, that clearly deserve the nod over Trae.
