This is a completely different Hawks team from a week or two ago.

Yeah.  We may win, we may lose.  But we're no longer getting outclassed and out-worked. 

[kg01]

The heyul they cleaning up?

[kg01]

Dumb foul.... I'll take it.

Remember when folks were saying pj Washington >>> Collins?

I do ...

[JeffS17]

Awww man I thought this started at 730 (so like 745), missed most of the half... are we playing good defense or are they missing a lot of open looks?

Both.

Our defense has been good tonight though.

[JeffS17]

Is this the worst court of all time?  I could write an essay on how horrible it is

He's playing how the "Traetors" claim Trae plays like all the time.

Yeah this...

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Very good half vs this team.  They normally have 60+right now.

[terrell]

Great defensive half.. We usually give up 44 points in a qtr..lol...

[REHawksFan]

Gonna have to play well in the 2nd half. They ain't going 0-fer from 3 all game. 

Like the effort though. 

[TheTruth]

I don't think I've ever seen a team throw up this many 3s before half (17) AND MISS ALL OF THEM.

But hey, I'm certainly not complaining!

[JayBirdHawk]

We held this team under 45 point. WOW!!!  They have hit ZERO 3 pointers!!! WOWZA!!! 

[Sothron]

This is the best defensive effort of the season BY FAR so far. Love it. I like the Hornets and let me tell you they are really damn good at home  this season and usually run people off the courts.  We need this defensive intensity and focus for every game.

Crazy thing is there weren't a ton of rim outs. It was a lot of clanks off the rim and all backboard shots. Like they weren't even close. Not sure it really has anything to do with the D but I'll take it.
