Please give Knox more minutes Thibs

Hawks are way too small right now.  Get some size in this game LP.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Hawks are going to have to outshoot this group on the floor, because they're way too small to actually defend the Knicks, if they go inside.

[Dnice]

Gonna be a long night for Atlanta. 

[Final_quest]

Calls suck for us again.  

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Capela ( -11 )

Hunter ( -12 )

Collins ( +5 )

 

You're asking Hunter to defend AND score over guys bigger than him, LP.

Barbeque chicken.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

People hate Bruno, so I'm going to call for LP to play Knight with Collins or Capela.  We need size on the floor . . period.

They're KILLING US in the paint.

[Bonkers]

No defense!!!

LP YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE A DEFENSIVE COACH!!!

Do you really wanna get fired

We've been in the bonus way too long to only have gotten 2 trips to the line.

Our three ball is betraying us again. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Knicks have only made ONE 3 pointer, but are up by 7.

Why?

Because they're killing us in the paint and around the rim.

[JayBirdHawk]

What is wrong with Cam?

We aren't playing free flowing, not enough ball and player movement, too many players picking up their dribble. Too much hesitation on shot attempts. 

And not much defense and we need Bruno in this game.

Live by the 3 die by the 3.

Knicks have a guys who can get buckets inside, mainly Randle. We could use someone like that.

Can't have it both ways Bonkers. One of the things that Bruno does well, is set screens for shooters and stick with his man.  None of that shows up in the stat sheet.

So even when he's fumbling passes out of bounds, he's a big body and a presence in the middle on defense.

The fact with the Knicks is that when they're going big, we can't go small.  We have to go big.

So it's either play Bruno or Knight . . . or keep Collins and Capela in as much as possible together . . with Capela not looking for his offense.

 

See how much better we're playing now?

We got JC and Capela. They just need to assert themselves.

[RedDawg#8]

Thibs is a real defensive coach. He refuses to let us get any momentum going, and he is determined to slow this game down and grind it out in half court.
