I would trade Murray,Capela,Bey. I like Murray but if he could help get Murphy and pope and Capela and Bey help get Carter and Issac. I know very little about how the trade machine works. I’m just throwing some names out there that could help the Hawks balance their roster.

The Hawks are flat out playing defense the last week or so. It was there all along. They ain’t the Larry Brown Pistons but they also aren’t as bad as they were playing earlier in the season. Effort on defense can go along way in becoming a competitive team.

If Hunter keeps on dunking on people we need to give him a proper nickname? How about Dr Dre?

Atlanta is the 8 biggest market in the NBA. The owners, fans and especially the media should be acting like it. Why is the falsehood that the Hawks are a small market team still exist? Nm

The lost to the Wizards is the low point of the season . I sense friction. Please Hawks don’t embarrass yourself on TNT in front of the whole country. I was planning on being at the game,but canceled my plans after that terrible performance Saturday night.

I would take Collins right now over Hunter bad salary and all. Move JJ to 3 and Collins to 4. Trade Capela and find a Brook Lopez type.

I personally don’t like small ball myself. Unless you have an Rodman or Ben Wallace type player go bigger. Golden State run was fool’s gold.

We all know who he is. If he plays to his strengths he can help this team win some games. Staying healthy is the key. He likes to avoid contact but if he’s hitting shots and playing decent defense he’s worth his salary.
-
I know it’s early but would you as a gm make any moves to the team? I’m surprised by this little winning streak. Due to Bally sports problems I haven’t been able to watch the last few games. Does the Hawks have enough and how far can they actually go with this roster?

Jalen Johnson may be better than De'Andre Hunter and Cam Reddish

JJ. I was a big fan of Collins, but JJ is looking like a better version of a Ben Simmons type player. -
JJ will be a better player than Siakim sooner than later. I wouldn’t trade all that for an upcoming free agent.
-
If Hunter gives the Hawks what he is doing right now then he is the 3 and JJ is the 4 for at least a couple of more years. The Hawks need a true 7 footer with some muscle to matchup with certain teams. It doesn’t has to be a big money starter, just some spot minutes.
-
All we need from Hunter is 18 points 5 rebounds and maybe 2 assists a game. That’s asking a lot. JJ and big O need to go up stronger in the paint and finish hard . I like what Bey brings to the table.
-
He is not overrated, just hated on.

I was trying to say that Murray made a terrible choice of touching a ref.If he had a problem he should of addressed it after the game at the press conference and took a fine like that Toronto guard.

Official Playoff Game Thread: Hawks at Celtics -- GAME 5

My starting lineup would be (Young)pg (Boogie) 2g (Hunter) sm (Bey) pf (Collins) c -
I like Murray’s fire but he made tremendous mistake and his statement for his actions doesn’t go far enough. He should have said he was wrong which he was. If Murray would of handled it like Van fleet did and took a fine, then he would be playing tonight.

If isn’t being used properly. He needs to be playing center for 30 minutes a game. Small ball is the only way the Hawks can win in this series. They must out score the Celtics , because they can’t get stop’s with their big lineup. Put Horford in the pick and roll and let Young and Collins do their thing. Less Capela and more JJ and Bey at the four. Make the Celtics have to guard the whole floor. If the Celtics are daring JJ to shoot he needs to drive and kick. The Hawks defense will be garbage but hopefully the Hawks can out score them for one game. If isn’t being used properly. He needs to be playing center for 30 minutes a game.
