It appears rumors of Teague's demise were greatly exaggerated. 

For this game

Still can't play with Trae.

He should be running point. He struggles off ball.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Oh well.  Good effort by that group in the 4th.

[PSSSHHHRRR87]

Win or lose, I’ve loved the effort out of this team tonight. Short handed against a great team and they played their hearts out.

I was wrong. Enjoying this one. Didn't think it would be close at all.

I see you Grant.

Waiting on the Adams trade.

Gordon Hayward... perfect hair every time!

[Vol4ever]

I wanted the Hawks to draft Grant Williams who.played at Tennessee!

Good game Jeffrey.

Finally, now let's see him repeat it.

9 TO's and some highly questionable defensive effort for Trae. It's time for Pierce to get this under control. 2nd season or not, you don't want these issues to be the norm going forward. I'm usually not critical, but it was too obvious tonight.

Nope. That was definitely a zone.  I'm telling you . . . someone on this staff follows Hawksquawk. Or maybe it's a few of the players, and they kick back ideas to the coaches.

I was listening to the away broadcast when the announcers said zone, I looked up from my dinner to make sure I heard them right. We competed tonight and a lot of that has to do with LP changing things up some. I like what we got out of Goodwin and Graham off the bench tonight; they gave effort. Teague played well also; but I swear no one should fall for his pump fake three, he is not going to shoot it.

stole my thunder, Trae has got to be more under control. I think CLP should've let Jeff run point and Trae off ball when they were together

[bleachkit]

Jeff's best game since the trade. Solid games from Kev and JC. Trae solid with his scoring but  seven assists to nine turnovers including a couple bad ones down the stretch.

One of my favorite college players from last year...wanted him for the Hawks.

One of the worst games of Trae’s career from a ball security perspective. He had his pocket picked 5 or 6 times. Good fight otherwise. Nice to see some flashes of the old Teague.

[Vol4ever]

Terrible TO by Trae at the end.

Need plays where Teague kicks out to the spot up shooters more but his driving gave them problems all night. With Kemba out, this lineup with Trae and Teague almost pulled out a win. I agree about Trae's turnovers but without him we are down 15 at the half.

Teague being afraid to shoot spot up jumpers when he is solid three point shooter blows my mind.
