There are Hawk fans who @ me this year when JC has a great run of games but in these playoffs, I haven't been @ by them when it comes to JC. I wonder why?

i don't like getting into personal stuff, feelings are way overrated.

30 per is a guy you build around as it is jc is 3rd fiddle? maybe 4th when hunter gets it going

Some was deserved. His defense massively improved from last year this year. He ended my chatter that 4/40 is the max I would offer him. He played like a 4/80 to 90 guy. But in the playoffs, he's looking like a jag. He's our worse defender on Randle and he's not much of a scoring threat if you take away the lob. 

 

Bogi been guarding Randle better. That said, he is still valuable to us in this series. We can't afford him to be in foul trouble as Okongwu just isn't giving us much and Gallo is old, he can only play so many mins. JC has value and he's important but you gotta admit, this ain't no max kat

JC wants 30 a year. He wants Siakam money.

whoever pays him that good luck

I owe Smoove an apology. He is way more productive in the playoffs than JC

28.5% 3point it always seemed he was jacking them things every chance too

Hunter can guard Randle, Giannis, Durant, Tatum, and AD better than JC

better doesn't mean good though

at this point i'd give collins that capella contract 15 mil per year sounds about right yeah?

And Hunter is not a 4.

 

he can guard 4's for small moments in time though.

looks like we need to practice getting the rebound after the block

I like how all the dirty physical plays from the Knicks got zero calls from the refs except the obvious flagrant against Hunter. Noel intentionally tries to injure Trae with tripping him and no call. Randle was throwing elbows and connect with Bogi and other guys heads multiple times on picks. No call. I don't know how many times our guys were fouled in the act of shooting and no calls. 

We blew this game by missing a ton of WIDE OPEN shots but those refs were terrible.

Did anyone else see that Trae got spit on by a Knicks fan too? Disgusting.

i did not and that's assault that fan should be charged and arrested

What is the dumbest thing about this cartoon?

1.  The idea that Trae is super insecure and is crying to himself because the Knick fans were cursing at him before, during and after the game?  Obviously, Knick fans are projecting their own insecurities here.
2. The idea that any star player tries to a force a trade to the Knicks.  Who was the last star for their way onto the Knicks roster?  Was it anytime in the last decade?  (Answers:  Carmelo Anthony and No.)  The ego has landed on this one because Knick fans view their team as this super desirable location when nobody has wanted to be there in many moons and lots of players run from the organization headed by Dysfunctional Dolan.
3. The idea that Trae shooting his very ordinary 9 fta attempts is at all notable.  He averages 8.7 per game.  The Knicks got more FTs than the Hawks did.  Trae draws more defensive attention than anyone else on the court.
4. The idea that Trae would be crying for any of these reasons after delivering an epic victory over the Knicks in MSG instead of celebrating with his teammates.

 

For me it is either 2 or 4 but they are all ridiculous.  Talk about a mentally fragile fan base! 

Maaan they have a 60 year lld man jumping up n down dressed like a toddler as their mascot ofcourse theyre projecting their childish tendencies and behaviors 

did trae bonk him on purpose?  he might be a villian

Don't believe so... saw a couple places that the plan for him is to get him going in summer league. Sounds like we won't have him for playoffs... which sucks cuz we'd need him for the Nets if we get there. 

even if he had been practicing i wouldn't want him coming in cold like that even though he is very talented, playoff basketball is way more intense and i'd imagine that would put him at risk for something else to mess up.

has cam done any practicing since his injury?

For him to go out of his way to say he has an infuriating game is just ridiculous and shows he does not watch the games.  Feeding national bias against Trae. His game is absolutely beautiful to watch. Only this year did he add the foul baiting to his game, which until this year for some reason, was the mature vet thing to do to show you have grown and understand the game. Jordan, Bird, Miller, Pierce, James, Harden all mastered it on the way to the Hall of fame.  But when little ole Trae MASTERS it in his third year, they want to outlaw it. Let them, it will be the Trae rule. He will find another way to dominate the game. 

trae's changing the game

No but, he legit is scared of birds. He even admitted the irony of him being drafted by the Hawks

Go to the 1:52 mark followed by the follow up question after at 2:10 mark. He is serious about this

 

i was wondering why they got rid of the actual hawk bird they'd let fly around 

Believe it or not hawks are a pretty good defensive team now

Only in fantasy novels and comic books are new Yorkers the good guys

Im getting too hyped i got work tomorrow how am i going to sleep until Wednesday?
