Saving that seat at the back of the bandwagon for you . . . when we storm back in the 2nd half.

Not only that, That is worst half of defensive basketball from Trae all year. Every person he covered was smoking him..

Hopefully we see more BG in the 2nd half..

That was a lackluster half.  Still in it, but need to come out with some fire in the first half.

Trae isn't playing up to his normal standards.  He needs to get that rhythm back. Bogi played well.

Entire team seems a step slow.

At least they are keeping it close and Bucks is going to tired out, then we can start our run.  So no Chicken Little okay?

They ALWAYS let teams back into the game.  I've been betting on their games too much not to know that.

It’s why I’m not dissecting the game to the point that a missed first quarter floater already doomed the night.

I hope youre right, but if Trae isnt 100%(supposedly) why is he out there? BG was playing well. No need to rush back..

The refs and the NBA are for sure up to something. Trae and Giannis living in the paint yet have no free throws in the 1st half. That is so blatant its not even comprehensible.

At least the Hawks are still in it.

[JayBirdHawk]

Let's see what defensive adjustments Nate comes up with in the 2nd half, mmmmm...or better yet, just play some defense.

Because he's tough.

Yea, but he hasn't played in a while so he can be rusty.  Give it time.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Solo has 0 fouls.  I need him to become much more aggressive on defense, guarding Giannis.

Despite Giannis high FG percentage, Solo hasn't just let him run amuck and dominate the game.

 

( regaining my senses )

WTF am I doing?   I'm praising Solo?

[ATLHawks3]

They're forcing Trae off the three point line tonight, so Trae has one of three options. Hit some floaters/mid-range shots, find an open guy, or reset the offense. Hoping the adjustments made at halftime allow for him to have more scoring production because we aren't winning this game if he's held to 0 points lol.

Goodwin hadn't played in a while before he started the last 2 games and was pretty good.  Don't make excuses for Trae.  He is playing very poorly
