Yep.. He and OO are perfect fits around Trae.. Gotta give Travis credit for that..

I still wanna trade JC tho but even that's limited

Kirshner just ask about OO being the fulltime starter.. Nate say it should push Clint but Clint is our starter....lol...Nate told him hes just trying to start a story...Wow..

Heard that....he said Clint is seeing what this Young guy is doing.

I expect fans to throw John under the bus but OO too?

Under the bus?

Capela is going to be a quality backup when he returns.

He was really the perfect fit but it was not meant to be I guess. Sigh. 

Not really.. Cam needs the ball in his hands...

Tough call but I think Nate will continue to start Capela

Just get into the playoffs. 

That's all I really care about. Last season proved anything can happen once in the Playoffs.

Hawks need to rebound so much better and close down easy paths to the bucket 

Really cool to meet @JeffS17face to face tonight at the game 

Absolutely!  And big O had an amazing game!!  Awesome game, loved the way we adjusted in the second half and continued to play hard

BIG O: 7 points on 7 shots, 5 blocks, a team high +20, and residency in KATs head

OO has been awesome last two games. Still basically a rook though. We are gonna need Cap down the stretch to make a run 

[ATLHawks3]

If anything, the rise of Onyeka's game should push Clint to play better. Protect the rim better, rebound better, finish around the rim better, and bring better energy to our team. Let's keep it rolling into Friday against Miami. I really want us to beat them.

Nah let’s just trade Trae he had 5 turnovers that were more impactful than his 37 points and 14 assist.

Yeah.. I'm reading guys saying that OO won the game???

OO played great.. BUT.....

[JayBirdHawk]

So Spicey!

He answered that the right way. Clint's going to be sleeping with lotion gloves on tonight to soften those "stone hands" up after watching OO come for his starting job.

[JayBirdHawk]

Welcome to the Hawks!

Good win tonight. I think we’re seeing the difference that 2 legit defenders make when those defenders aren’t sketchy on offense.(I'm looking at you Cam and CC)

Trae was the offense OO was the defense. We needed both.
