Official Game Thread: Bucks at Hawks

[JayBirdHawk]

Thank you Nate. Let Trae be Trae. Play with pace.

 

 

 

 

 

[JayBirdHawk]

We've been screaming for it.

Best thing about the game tonight - when the Bucks made the 8-0 run to start the 3rd to cut the lead to 6 we didn't fold like cheap suit.

Needed this dub badly… made my night.

De’Andre Hunter is going to miss approximately eight weeks with a tendon injury in his wrist.

Glad for the win.  We looked great.   Let's start a winning streak now.

Can somebody, ANYBODY, tell Cam Reddish to stop with all the stepback jumpshots - he's usually taller than whoever is guarding him.....dribble, pull up, shoot over - STOP STEPPING BACK! Step into your shot.......use your height

And uhhh slip into something more comfortable.. 

Clippers 84

Bulls 93

The LJ jersey strikes again! (I mean I think unless I just jinxed the Bulls).

Mrs. Sothron has now decided that LJ jersey will be on for all games until the karma runs out. So Hawks and Bulls I'll  have it on.

WOW!  After the Falcon's beat down, Atlanta fans really needed this.

I missed the first half of the game (Church) and wanted to watch re play this morning.  Guess what.  At 7:15 AM they were on the half time break.  

Agent 0017 will now be back before we see Hunter again.  Do you suppose that rookie Jalen Johnson will take his spot now?  That would be expecting a lot from him.  Not as a starter, just as an inexperienced rookie.

Can we please have a repeat.  Confidence is a fickle master.  Games consist of a bunch of runs by each team unless it is a blow out (Re - Falcon's game) and perhaps the season is the same way.  If so, these Hawks are due for a good spell of play.

Nightmare, that real memory of that 13 win season, hopefully comes to an end.  But, to really feel good, I must see us win at least two in a row!!

Cant really blame the Falcons for being bad...TD and Quinn left this team in a mess....

And Dallas had the nerve to give Quinn the game ball after yesterday..smdh

It's his fault we're in this position, with all of these small ass D Lineman, LB's, etc....

Fast and Physical my ass.....................

And why in the hell is Rich McKay still here?? 

Falcons need to clean house from top to bottom and start over...

Losing Hunter is just a bitter blow to the team and his development.  It hurts, I'm not gonna lie.

Cam's shooting has me a bit frightened for him.  He is such a momentum based player that when he gets in a funk it just is putrid.  He needs to make things easier on himself by pulling back and taking more high % shots until he gets rolling again.  The first 7 games:  45% from the field.  The last 7 games:  27% fg%.

On the plus side, this win was a huge relief.  Watching the Trae/JC PnR domination was fantastic.  JC up to the 15 shots that needs to be his baseline.  More of that as the core of the offense please.  Seeing the adjustment to the rotation was long overdue.  No more all-bench linesups, Nate.  Please don't regress on these things.  They will help improve team performance and consistency.  

Health wise with the bad news for Hunter and the scare with Cam, it was great to see Capela looking physically better than we've seen.  This image gives me hope for his season:

Team should have had a shot to the ego from the start to the season.  Now need to go after every win with more hunger and humility.  Can't afford to settle for one-on-one play on offense.  Have to dig in on every possession on defense.  Make the game easier for yourself and take shots from the right spots on the floor.  This can be the start of something of a turn around for this team.

Jussayin' but immediately prior to this play, the conversation in chat was lamenting Capela's faulty touch around the rim.

Chat idiots, amirite?

Cap is always going to have an iffy touch around the rim.  Not wrong about that.  But he needs to have the lift to flush things like this to reach  his potential and his being able to move like this will also give a boost to his rebounding and shot blocking.  Need him healthy.

No, you, I mean the other person had a right to be weary he misses those chippies every game. 
 

Even Nique wants Capela do dunk everything! Did you hear Nique and VC going back n forth, Nique said”he shoulda..” … he ain’t got a 21 on his back brotha”
