Hawks v. Grizzlies

[sillent]

Trae our best defender right now. All jokes aside I like us overall we will be alright. Let's get all this out preseason

We look like we're playing in the mile high stadium. Definitely have to keep the ball moving to make things easier and work their defense and legs

9 months off, dead legs.

Wide open 3 after wide open 3. They don’t even have to create them, they just come down and stand there. Haven’t run them off the line once 

 Embarrassing showing..

Grizz look well coached

 

The Hawks look...

 

Yea the Grizz look well coached

It’s a mirror image of the Falcons looking at guys like Kyle Shanahan and Matt LeFleur outperform their former staffs after using Atlanta as a springboard, same with Tyler clearly being superior to Lloyd.

And it begins

 

 

[terrell]

Starting backcourt is 5-22. Not gonna get it done..

[RedDawg#8]

Grizzlies blowing us out, what else is new. Terrible. Terrible. Terrible

[sillent]

This looks like the Dream Team getting beat by a college group with LP playing the role of Chuck Daily. He know he could've sicked a Cam/Dre combo to ramp up the defense awhile back

Can this team win with Trae as our best player? Serious question..Im starting to wonder. I know its just preseason but still..

Trae won't be this terrible all year. He looks so rusty. It's been a while but let's not forget he was one of the best offensive players in the NBA last year. He needs to stop pulling up from 40 early in the shot clock though.

And besides a few Trae bombs, they were all good, open looks.

Trae's runner has been off. Gallo and Bogi have been non-existent. Capela 's been lazy. Huerter hasn't looked good. The offense has been meh and the defense, lazy and unccordinated. 

Deandre's been ballin

But this loss is all about defense. Memphis scoring at will tonight

We've been going zone, which is pretty freaking idiotic when the team is hitting threes...on top of that the non existent effort from most guys and well.

Like I said.  Multiple people have sucked tonight.  I think Trae is literally like 2 for his last 12.

If you have Huerter and Rondo, the backcourt is 9 - 34 FG . . . 3 - 17 3FG

Looks like the defense falls off when the shots aren’t falling

....that plus bringing in poor individual defenders and thinking you’ll be able to defend as a team. Cam should start over Bogi off defense alone.

Wait...I was booed every time I criticized LP but I now have followers? Love it!!

[Cwell]

[Marvin24Williams]
