Somebody was hating on the guy

We should be careful not to conflate multiple conversations:

1. Whether Hunter was worth the resources it cost us to move up and whether we would have been better off drafting other players with those picks.
2. Whether Cam or Hunter deserved to start at SF coming into this season assuming that Bogi would be starting at SG.
3. Whether Cam or Hunter has the higher long-term upside.
4. Whether we should deal Hunter if we want to upgrade this team.

Most people on this site who can tick one of these boxes on the side against Hunter can't check all of them.

I’m starting a petition.  We need to be paid to be Hawks fans.  This sh*t is a vocation.

If what he did to "earn" that tech is all it takes, refs should be handing out like 30 of them per game.

We have a winner!

Goodwin:  1 - 9 FG . . . mainly because he can't shoot . . and because the other guys weren't moving when he had the ball.

Tech on Hunter?!?

It was a clean block and the ref did not like his look back after the call.

Can't remember tbh. Might have been preseason.

Goodwin is awful.

He played well subbing for Trae initially, once the bench rotation started, he struggled a bit, made some mistakes, We had too many awful live ball TOs, none by Goodwin by the way.

That dude stinks!!!

[bleachkit]

Goodwin's floor game is very meh.

[aali34]

John needs to be a bit quicker when passing to Clint.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Trae, just shoot the ball.

[Peoriabird]

Right on Q...Hawks start stinking when the starting point guard returns

[JayBirdHawk]

Dribble dribble dribble dribble
