The guards are ALWAYS trying to pass to Clint when he's in position to do absolutely nothing with the ball.
-
As is the case with alot of young players, Jalen is going to have to get stronger with finishing through contact.
-
Not sure why Trae attempted that pass.
-
It's perplexing to say the least because (looks at roster) it makes zero sense.
-
Pretty much this. Trae has repped the city of Atlanta unlike any other star Hawks player EVER. I don't think people quite understand how disastrous losing him would be. I have to say, I'm pretty surprised at Quin. His handling of young players is just as bad as Nate Mcmillan. Why is he so afraid to play A.J. or Kobe? The top coaches aren't scared to play younger guys because their secure in their own ability as coach. The average ones just lean on veterans.

IMO, they should be prioritizing players over picks.
-
They haven't released that info yet, but we should find out soon. It seems this is legitimate.
-
I was notified of this today. Not sure of the accuracy on this, but interesting if true.
-
But, if they do mess this up...yikes.
-
Lol, the only trash I've seen are the "eggsperts" agenda driven takes on him.
-
Definitely agree. The Hawks have to get fair value in any Murray trade. He is an All-Star caliber player. They shouldn't be in a rush to just accept anything.
-
All of this makes the original Murray trade look even worse.
-
The Trae hate from the national media has always rang as disingenuous. They know he's a star. He just doesn't play for their favored teams and now they're chomping at the bit because they see an opportunity to drive him out of Atlanta. For the record, I won't blame Trae for looking elsewhere if the Hawks continue the dysfunction. But, the national media narratives about him have always been a joke.

Official Game Thread: Spurs "at" Hawks -- The MLK Day Game!
Jody23 replied to lethalweapon3's topic in Homecourt
The second half was not good, Bob. But they did just enough to get the win. On to the next one !!! -
While true in theory, the Hawks aren't likely to get picks with the kind of value of the ones they gave away. If they moved Trae, sure they could get some picks of value. I'm not sold on that happening and I don't think it would be a wise move although I know some disagree. Outside of that (and Murray), I don't see the Hawks getting legitimate first round picks for anyone else. Though it looks bad right now, I think things can be turned around. It will involve personnel changes for sure, but I don't think a full rebuild is the answer or necessary.
-
I definitely agree that getting a lottery pick this year is more valuable than getting smoked in a play-in or first round matchup. That said, they're not just going to start miraculously winning next season. They're gonna have to start working towards that the rest of the way this season (which may hurt the pick position some). Reading between the lines of Trae's postgame comments, he's a firm believer in Quin which is good. However, it seems that there are guys in that locker room who aren't listening to Quin's message (not good).
-
Just a reminder. The Hawks owe unprotected picks and a pick swap to the Spurs. Tanking is literally not an option.
-
These missed/non-extra passes are frustrating.
-
Jalen's screen and roll action has been pretty listless tonight. I know the guards aren't looking his way, but he's got to be more decisive. And Matthews shouldn't be out there tonight.
-
The rumors have had an effect. Guys' minds are somewhere else.
-
They are not playing with any energy whatsoever.
-
If JJ pass up one more shot...Shoot the ball.
-
Posturing.
