[DrReality]

Cam did not look like a rookie when he made that steal.    He served notice!

I've seen the highlights since I got home. That move on Iggy was sick af

My son said "I though Iggy was a great defender?"

I replied, "He's never had to guard a player with as many tools as Trae has."

Me and my son was enjoying the win! So much I'm tired now. Amazing performances from the kids.

Not sure I’ll ever like those long out of rhythm 3’s.

50! 50! 50! MVP MVP MVP MVP 

Trae! What a game! We stuck together. Cam broke out in a huge way what a steal and rip in a huuuuge situation. D all night long was very nice. 
 

Go Hawks!!!!!

Spoelstra's expression for the last 29.7 seconds was priceless!!!

Remember that line Spoelstra dropped about how Jimmy Butler is a max player and just because young players, cough, Trae Young, get stats don't make them max players. 

I bet he'd give his left nut to have Trae on his team. 

Anywho. I'm loving this profanity laced thread. 

Trae Young is a superstar! Hands down.  I've become numb to his offensive greatness.  

Cam Reddish is going to be a star!  I can't wait for him to put it all together.  Doesn't look like the worst player ever drafted anymore does he haters.

D. Hunter!!! Man kid was out there playing both sides of the ball. 

JC did the damn dirty work.

Heurter pay attention people.  Kevin plays so much better in the fourth.  

I normallly reserve this for Trae, but the entire team deserves it!

This is legit one of my top five movies of all time. I was Billy Hoyle chasing down games in the ghetto all throughout south Georgia in my HS and early college days trying to find good games.

Never hustled tho since some of those cats were ganged up and I didn't want any of that trouble.

How long must we wait until the next game?

What? 48 whole hours!?!

Argh! That's taking WAY too long! Fire the schedule-makers, for they have already failed us! Hear me now, believe me later!

 

Go Hawks!

It's not exactly textbook basketball.

Speaking of patience, I sure remember sitting there back when Reef dropped 50, thinking, "hmmm, yeah, I could kinda get used to this!" Time flies whether you're having fun or not!

As per Hawks GameNotes, Joe had the old Hawks record with 38 points against the heat, back in March 2008.
