It’s so refreshing to watch this team without Trae for me, I know I’m in the scant minority.  Balanced scoring, sound team defense without a weak link.

This was a REALLY good game. Nate gets the most out of these guys.

Indeed.  Thread of the year.  Who gets called out next?  Someone please trash Okongwu.  

I've been trashing him all year long but to no avail.

I keep saying this but somehow, I don't don't truly believe it or I would have watched the game live. Not the replay that I am about to watch as soon as this Brooklyn game ends.

THATS WHATS UP!!!! NO TRAE NO CAPELA NO PROBLEM! Schlenk built a tank and commander Nate guiding it. Hats off to Goody, Bogi, Huerter and Lou, Collins, Huerter all the guys came through tonight. Gwu with some D they all played suffocating D. HUUUUUUGE STATEMENT WIN!

Maybe you need to start a thread.  Catchy title.  Out of NBA by next year... Okongwu.

Outside of what I just typed I’m speechless...

4th Quarter defense was stupendous! 

Steals on the night

Kevin - 5

Hill - 3

Lou - 2

Osquared - 1

Bsquared - 1

 

8 players with 3 or more rebounds

Someone compared Bogi to JJ.... I think they may have been selling him short. What a month so far by this guy. 

[benhillboy]

5 steals over and 3 fouls under our season averages.  You think this happens with everyone having to account for Trae who allows consecutive dribble drives from TJ McConnell?  Nope.

Nate is using him like Ray Allen in Seattle. That is what I'm seeing.

[NBASupes]

Thank you Miami for getting LP fired

Whoa, don't sell JJ short. He was a beast. 

[Final_quest]

Bogi, Lou, Collins, Huerter, Goodwin, and Gallo...enough fire power with the iron man Solo.

Iso Joe wasn't running off screens like Bogie is. Apples and oranges. Joe was great.

I'm not, but if the Bogi of the last 20 games is what we are gonna be getting for the remainder of his contract.... of course, probably not sustainable. But if it is... 21 ppg on amazing efficiency 5apg with just 1to. Dude is silk.

Game ball goes to Brandon Goodwin.  He's making a solid case to be on the team next year!

He's a keeper. I wish he would play this well coming off the bench though, it seems all his good performances are when he starts so far thi syear.

Yeah but Joe was a monster for the Hawks the minute he put on a Hawks uniform. He was a two way player that could score and pass it. There's a difference between a guy having a great month and a guy that had the Hawks on his shoulders for several Playoff seasons.
