[MaceCase]

Refs literally cost us this game.

Tonight the ref played a major part of this game and this series if Trae is out for the next game because of his ankle.

Perhaps he shouldn't be our HC, after all? It's looking so much like the time he was in Indy.

Too stubborn.

Let’s not over react.

You know we shot 42% from 3 tonight.

Solo and Bogi in particular, were major culprits in this loss . . . as well as the lack of securing defensive rebounds.

Trae's injury didn't help either.

Ignore some of these doomsday posters.

More Okongwu, less Bogi. That is all. It’s that simple.

20 point 4th quarter for Middleton. How does that happen?

Lou Williams in the game an not Huerter. 

[Thomas]

Well, the three ball helped us to a lead at the end of the third quarter so that is promising but Nate and then the refs on OUR court you know. Insufferable stuff.

He went en fuego.  Left open a bit but hit some very tough ones too.  Huge for the Bucks.  Hawks went cold.  Bad combo.

Man, too much Bogi hurt the rhythm and intensity of our team. Nate has to give Cam minutes. 

[Marvin24Williams]

6'10 athletic and long player rotting on the bench instead of being out there guarding Middleton. Cam excels on defending these type of guys 

[NBASupes]

I see why Indy fans wanted Nate gone. It don't make sense sticking to a lineup when shit ain't working. I felt he adjusted against Philly but against Milwaukee, he riding with shit that's not working

[Atlantaholic]

If Trae doesn't get hurt Hawks probably win. John breathes and he gets a foul call but Giannis stuck on 3 for the whole game. IT was a nice run but the Hawks have reached the end of the line now with Trae hurt. That ankle is only gonna get worse from now to tuesday.

Yes but Nate had a part in it as well.

I agree.  Nate has more than earned his place to be the head coach for the next 4 - 5 years.

No need to watch the rest of the series. They tried their best, but not anywhere near enough. This team doesn't have enough to make a legit run.

Are you serious. Man talk about fair weather. 

[NBASupes]

I loved Nate against New York 

Liked him against Philly but against Milwaukee, he's doing Indiana shit

Why was Huerter out so long?  A good 3 minutes. SMDH.

Middleton went crazy in the 4th. That was the difference.

must be nice have a 2nd guy capable of getting hot at anytime instead of having a bunch of guys that have one explosive performance every 20 games. So much for Trae's supporting cast being so "great" smh. Nate was ass, and is looking like he's not the guy to get us over the hump coaching like this

[marco102]

This team goes as Trae goes. If his ankle ain't right, this going to be tough to pull off.  DAMN!

[GameTime]

Game 4: Expect Bogi playing 35+ with one leg, Solomon Hill playing 20 minutes and Cam in street clothes.
