Official PLAY-IN Game Thread: Hornets at Hawks

[hawkman]

Dominant 1st quarter. I'll take it.

[RandomFan]

Win every quarter by 9 points and I think that just might make me happy at the end of the game. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Another great move by Trae.  Just can't get anything to go for him.

Let the others do the work tonight, if you don't have it.

Save it for the Cleveland game if we win.

[JayBirdHawk]

Up 9 and 32 points in the quarter with Trae shooting 1-9. I'll take!

Go Hawks!

[kg01]

Not gonna get the whistles, Hawks.  Just play.  You've been here before.

The bench has to hold the line. I don't care if they trade baskets, just hold the lead.

Go Hawks!

This is playoff basketball...Can't worry about what a player is doing.  Keep moving the ball and find the hot shooter, keep playing defense and kill them on the boards

That's what I'm talking about!!!

[Peoriabird]

Tighten up that defense Hawks

Don't get into a shooting contest with these guys!

I told yall abut Trae and ESPN games.. smh

[TheNorthCydeRises]

What the hell is Jay-Z doing at the game?

Is he scouting us?

[Peoriabird]

Suddenly this ain't looking so good

[Bonkers]

U shouldn't ever let Thomas get a rebound over u

[JayBirdHawk]

Need to get the ball inside...don't get 3 shot happy.

[Peoriabird]

We can't get into these da-m 3 point shooting contest with these guys...The Hawks just can't shake their bad habits!

[REHawksFan]

The problem for the Hawks is the supporting cast can get hot and carry them while Trae is off in the first. But there's an expiration date on their hotness. Doesn't last the whole game. 

Trae best get going when he comes back in. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Hawks need to extend this lead while the Hornets are ice cold from the outside.  

[RandomFan]

Good grief. How many minutes since we scored a point? This is getting ridiculous.

Should not depend on hotness.  They just have to play sound basketball...Something they can do but rather not do it for long stretches
