Official Game Thread: Hawks at Mavericks

[Guest]

Dallas can complain all they want to, and the announcers can moan about it too, but Dallas IS actually fouling us constantly.

OO piles up winning plays as rapidly as about anyone.  As I’m typing he turns it over

Bogi looks so bad tonight. Totally unwilling to pass but can't hit a shot.

Dallas is going to end up being + for the half with Luka out.  We've definitely wasted this chance.  And Luka will be fully rested.

We deserve to lose tonite.  My goodness ...

[SalvorMallow]

Go right at Luka every possession.

If Luka gets it going, Nate can't leave Trae out for no more than 1 more minute.

Both the starters and the bench failed to take this game. They should be down double digits right now.

Nate has to sit Bogi, he's pressing and messing up the rhythm.

Don't disagree. But does either team really deserve to win this one? Terrible basketball both ways.

Hawks will see this and be like . .

And don't count on a favorable whistle the rest of the way.  They gotta even things out for the league.  Ref-venge on Cuban trumps ref-venge on Trae.

They could have called 2x the fouls if they had wanted to. They are fouling every single play.

I swear Dallas plays so much better as a team when Luka is out.

Last I checked their +- was better with him off the court. 

[Atlantaholic]

Luka will have to punch someone to get a 6th foul called, they aren't gonna blow that whistle lol.

Smartly though.  I dont wanna see the wrong dude out there tryna tricky dribble the clock out.

One of the more atrocious offensive performances I've seen from this team... amazing we are still in striking distance to be honest... let's see if we can play good to close it out.

The bigger lose for them to fouls was Brunson. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Capela ( -1 ) . . . Okongwu ( -10 )

Haven't seen that in a while.

 

 

Hawks shooting 37.5% FG . . . 22.7% from 3

We got lucky we are facing a banged up Dallas team. You will have nights where nothing falls, it happens. Let's see if we can steal a win.
