I will start. JJ is more active than John Collins at the PF spot. My issue with John was that if his shot wasn't falling (and it wasn't a lot last season) hw offered nothing else. JJ has good handles, good court vision, and hustles on D. I saw one series the other night where he guarded all five positions on the other team. I am also noticing more ball movement and less of the one one one stuff. I think that even with DJ and Trae our strength will be our team as a whole. Another thing that I have noticed is that they are not settling for the 3 as much--these guys will drive or move in for a better shot. -
This^^^ I for the life of me can't understand why these guys are getting this money they can't 1) Get you to the playoffs 2) Make their teammates better 3) Produce without having another(or 2 more) 40 million player on the team. Beal, Wall, etc

We are not going to make any moves and just draft at 15. We will probably sell the 2nd round pick as usual.
-
If everything on this team stayed the exact same on this team player wise and we swapped out Trae for Kyrie Irving--would we be substantially better? I am referring to the not crazy version of Kyrie. How would a Kyrie/Murray backcourt work for you all? Plus it would give Trae a chance to play with his buddy Luka. Not wanting this trade but am just curious.

We need more guys out there who will do what it takes to win and not just "get his". That has always been my issue with JC. If his shot isn't falling he doesn't step it up in other places. This kid here is special. He can rebound, play D, make hustle plays, and he can knock down the three. He is what I was hoping JC would have been. If he can work on that jumper folks we will have someone special. He just has the dog in in. Same can be said about AJ--but he needs to be able to be effective even when his shot isn't falling.

We need to go BPA!! -
Too much damn doubling. Why double anyone and leave guys open at the 3 pt line.
-
Is Nique sick or something?
-
They are going to try and destroy us early. If we can survive the initial run we can win this game.
-
I hearing all these trades proposals but who the hell wants him? Dude is looking like an undrafted player out there!!
-
I honestly don't expect us to win this game.
-
What would a Dejounte and Anthony Edwards backcourt look like?
-
Hell yes they do. Dude won a lot of games for us and kept us in a lot of games with his shooting. We loss a lot of shooting over the summer.
-
I figure any decent coach would not want any part of this mess.
-
Sorry to hear that brother!! Prayers for you and your family.
-
Go back to the stacks. I was trying to tell you all that he wasn't the guy for the Hawks but you all were drunk off of that magical run we made. Dude runs into the same issues he had in Portland and Indiana.
-
How does stuff like this get out? You got a guy who now everyone knows may not want to be here leading our team? There is some funny business going on around here and I don't like it a bit. Somebody in management is leaking this stuff.

https://open.spotify.com/episode/3yQxDutHQSJGt1qyX8Hb2z?si=CCX5r262QVecjlH6eWEeoQ&nd=1 He had some juicy bits on the Hawks. He doesn't even want to really touch on it. Folks we have some problems and they have been present since the summer. Huerter trade? DJM trade? John Collins issues? Disagreements at the top? What the hell is going on fellas? Hawks start at 7:10 mark.

I see a guy who is out there working his butt off. He is trying so what more can we ask?

Ressler's son is now the President of Basketball operations. Nepotism is running wild in this organization. https://twitter.com/femaleatlhawk/status/1605607153254817799?t=PWKACQxxcQ2I2J2fq7jp_w&s=19

Speedy Claxton Jon Koncak Dion Glover (Summer League Hall of Famer) Priest Lauderdale Sheldon Williams .............players I have had the misfortune of seeing play for my Hawks!!! I was going to add Chris Crawford but he did give us 8 solid years as a Hawk. Not too many players can say that considering he was a 2nd round pick 50th overall.
-
What I observed last night was relentless energy for 48 minutes. Those guys were just getting after it the entire game.
-
Diesel, this is a good point many fail to consider. Trae doesn't have a quick shot and actually it's a slow release. He needs to set his aim/square up before he shoots the ball. Guys like Curry, Reggie Miller, Klay, etc can get their shots off in mere milliseconds. AJ has a slow release as well.
-
I reading stuff where folks are calling for his head but how much of the blame do you guys place at his feet?
