Hawks v. Grizzlies

[Cwell]

It's only right to end the half on another wide open 3. I wish I could play against them in 2k. I'd have all my shooting badges in one game

Gallo, Hunter, Bogi, Huerter and Trae?

 

What I tell you about LP playing Gallo at the 5?

Hopefully a sign of things to come. It has to be consistent.

I always knew he could do so this isn't a surprise to me

John Collins value is going down on this team..

So many open 3's.  At least we're in striking distance, but no clear team identity for the Hawks.  Unless sloppy is an identity.

I mean...if it was me I'd at least wait til the games actually counted. But thats just me. 

So game 1 I have permission to hit the panic button?

They look like a team with 60% new players and 3 weeks of practice time. Not sure what some of y'all are expecting to see. 

Nah.

[Peoriabird]

What has happened to that Collins Trae chemistry???  They look completely out of sync!

Starting to wonder if this team can actually function in a structured offense with Trae and Collins. With more talent on the team I expect Collins going to drop off.

You don't need my permission dude. But by all means...you do you. I'll wait a few games before assuming Trae forgot how to play offensively.

They haven't run ANY 1-4 PnR, seems almost deliberate to me, just saying.

That's my biggest worry honestly. New players is no excuse. Our 1-4 pick n' roll is our bread and butter.

Yeah but we're losing a preseason game. We must fire everyone!!

This is how I envisioned Trae on Defense...Jumping in passing lanes to disrupt other team's offenses

Trae Iverson

They are not showing the pick and roll in preseason. Its weird since every team in the NBA knows its a bread and butter for us. Not like we are going to surprise anyone in the regular season when we do run it.

True. Hopefully, the Hawks are playing possum and come out Wednesday hitting on all cylinders. They look so out of sync right now. It's like everyone agreed to NOT play to their strengths or do the things that worked last season. 

[aali34]

Let's see how they perform in the third. Hopefully better than last time.

Any calls for firing is premature though.
