Official Game Thread: Pelicans at Hawks

[GameTime]

Looks like we found our backcourt fellas. When Hunter and Collins come back we will be scary.

This is the most exciting Hawks team since 2016

What you mean . . not really?

At the time I posted that, the Hawks were up by 16.   So if he barley sat until the 4th, that means when he did sit out, the Pelicans were all time terrible.

It is nice to see to see the team learn how to play together plus get some wins with it. Nate has done wonders with our team. Even when we lost some games out west, you could see our growth.

I was so mad at Lou during that series against the Pacers years ago when it was 1/8. I think this could be a good spot for him to give us a year or two to finish out his career at home.

Which one is the empty stats guy?  BSPN-types say it's Trae.  I'm going on record it's their (other) chosen one.

So powerful, so efficient, so ... down 19 by the 3rd quarter because he don't really board and don't play no defense, and is exhausted by halftime.

Trae's tiny, what's his excuse(s)?

This team offensively is more lethal than the 2016 team.

I agree...Zion is without a doubt the empty stats guy!

Love seeing our least physical player end up doing this to Zion, freaking hilarious.

Not bad for the 16th best young player in the NBA 

[Sothron]

We are 13-4 under a real coach. I have never seen a team react like this to a coaching change in the NBA. 

[JayBirdHawk]

It's finally happening!

Usually you don't get a shit coach and replace him with a very good top 10 in the NBA coach within the same staff but somehow we did.

Zion apologists will say he just came back from injury.  And they're missing a high level guy in thIngram.

Well, so did Trae and he's without Jollins.

They keep saying he's the next 'guy' after lebron.  Well is he waiting for him to retire before starting to win?
