Official Game Thread: Hawks at heat (1 of 2)
skimaskway23 replied to lethalweapon3's topic in Homecourt
Just one of those shooting nights from our backcourt. We haven't had more than 2 or 3 games where they've shot this bad. They will shoot better I'm more encouraged by the adjustments, the communication, and the rotation considering which guys were hot. We don't look lifeless like we did with Nate. This would've been a 30pt loss but we fought. -
I don't like that we have talked Trae out of taking 3s as a fan base. We are more okay with dejounte taking that contested 3, and that's a shame. Trae isn't shooting as well for the season, but he really can't get going. You can feel the collective josh smithesque gasp of the fans when he takes any 3.

Trae is locked in tonight
-
Trae earned the right. Big time clutch rebound by collins
-
This is where you need a closer.
-
Whole team showing Trae some love. But they hate him
-
That's why you need a guy like Trae. Clippers got greedy there. All they needed was 2
-
Trae is hopping. Collins on defense
-
Wtf is bogi doing?
-
That was a crazy sequence. Kawhi switched but he still has his eyes on trae John looks nice in the middle vs clippers zone defense.
-
Please get us a coach that can develop Jalen. He has so much talent and size
-
Well I don't think many ppl saw it happen tbh. Trae was constantly in the huddle, dapping teammates, and joking with guys on the bench. Celebrated all the 3s and dunks with Vit. Trae was active and in good spirits
-
If you want conspiracy, I was at the game and saw something weird. Trae was kind of in the huddle and Nate just shoved Trae out of the way to sit down and draw a play. Trae goes over to some teammates and they laugh about it. My friend and I were like wtf was that lol We were like 10 rows back from the bench btw
-
If there were guys on this team that could afford Trae the luxury of playing off ball he probably would. I don't blame him for calling for ball when you got hunter and Collins dribble off their feet out of bounds. We sit here and watch Murray take 7-8 3s in a game and don't bat an eye. There is literally no other team that starts a 4 and 5 that can't shoot. We start 2 non shooters at the 4 and 5. This lineup needs balanced shooting or a center like KAT like you've mentioned. Or a sniper at the 4 like bojan. Get that, and we have yet to seen the best of Trae.
-
So Nate doesnt deserve criticism? His track record of inept offense and lack of adjustments holds no weight? Regardless whether you gripes with Trae are warranted or not, you haven't seen him coached by a true offensive mind or someone universally known as a great coach. You've called Trae the Messi of basketball. It may be hard to build around him, but it can be done. Do we have the right guys to do it? That's the question
-
Well when you look at that roster top to bottom. Everybody is a good shooter. Dinwiddie, kleber, wood, hardaway, finney-smith solid. You look at us and we are horrible top to bottom. So I'm pretty sure the spacing is much better there. I mean Murray is shooting better with Trae than with SAS but I wouldn't attribute that to Trae.
-
So Luka taught him how to shoot. Got it.
-
Well that's just hyperbole. Team doesn't like him is false. You mean John? CC and bogi seem to love him. I don't think you like Trae. Too bad if your a hawks fan, because he is here to stay. There has been some poor team building and poor coaching, but let's focus on the one bright spot.
-
Our players wouldn't magically become good shooters. Murray supposed to hit 3s at the same clip dinwiddie is shooting? You swapping out who stirs the drink. But it's a lot of shitty ingredients in that drink.
-
And it's been Nate's system for 2 years. You acting like he was out there with Klay Thompsons running around. The reality is he hasn't had knockdown shooters around him besides Gallo. Wings can work with Trae as long as they can shoot. We happen to have inconsistent shooters throughout the roster. You think Mike D'antoni would run a system where John Collins is our safety valve on kick outs? Trae averaging 10assists with some of the worst shooting I've ever seen is a miracle in itself
-
Out of a timeout no play called smh
-
Can't even guard haliburton. Ya hate to see it
-
You ready to admit Trae is not THE problem with this team? Our front court is trash outside of capela. Our "shooters" can't shoot outside of AJ and Bogi. Bogi can't defend. Look at this offense Carlisle is running and compare it to Nate's offense.
