Popular Post sillent Posted June 16, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 WAs long as we don't beat ourselves Philly is no match for us. Yes they have Embiid who we really have no match for but as long as we play our defense on the others we're good. I told some friends we found out how little a match they were the 1st game and we let them climb uphill (before it got out of hand) to wear them out. We are finally seeing some results especially with Joel. Now if we get back to Hawks basketball and stop playing hero ball ourselves (Bogi) it should be Hawks in 6. We haven't played our basketball except for the 2nd half of last game after the Hunter news. Yes it is a big impact but if we can manage to get Cam back healthy we can still beat an injured Nets team that lacks defense and a Bud Bucks team that lacks adaptability. Besides Utah and really Embiid there are no more dominating big men to face after Philly and if we play our basketball not too many teams can compete with our fire power. We have the talent. The rest is all mental. Question is are we mentally tough enough to do what it takes to go as far as our talent will allow? Time will tell and it starts tonight. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this season is a success even if the Hawks don't win another game in the 2nd Round, but I find myself moving the goalpost a little as well. I see no reason to stop now when there's a realistic opportunity to go further. I want to see these guys make noise in the Eastern Conference Finals. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's time for Trae to orchestrate and show that level up he spoke of the more we are playing meaningful basketball. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gray Mule Posted June 16, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Wouldn't it be nice if the Hawks steals one tonight and then, coming home, every Hawk has his very best game and we win this series!! Are the Hawks capable of doing this? You betcha they are! On the other hand, if Atlanta drops the next two, we have already left our mark on the playoffs. Then, next playoffs, the Hawks add another draft pick and Cam Reddish and De`Andre Hunter. No one will want to face these young Hawks. Right now - - Today - - We Squawk posters have so much to smile about. No one is going to remove this silly grin off my face, regardless of what happens. We have arrived. Party time tonight!! LETS GO ATL HAWKS !! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
