Wow, this is embarrassing.  This entire team needs to do dribble drills starting tomorrow until the season starts.

Yall can apologize to me in a few years when we're still trying to find the right pieces to fit around Trae Young....

Come on nate.. put in a freakin ball handler.

They won’t tech Kev for that but an “aw shucks” got him one in the 1st

First mistake, building around Trae.  Water under the bridge.  Second mistake, deferring to Trae instead of backing Lloyd and the players who wanted a more wide open offense.  Third mistake, pairing Nate with Trae.  There is zero hope for this because no way Trae is traded.  Yeah, he will pile up the numbers, but this is a badly conceived team built around a ball dominant point guard.

As incredibly bad as Trae has been the main issue is deeper. The team has completely given up. The gameplan offensively makes no sense whatsoever.

There is no game plan and there never was. "Get a switch and attack the mismatch"

Most coaches thought Trae was uncoachable. Nate at least changed that perception.

This team is legit just standing there on inbounds and if their first movement doesn’t come open they sit there and forget wtf they are supposed to do. Just hold their hands out like their job is done. The lack of effort should allow the hawks to void a couple contracts. Why pay if they aren’t gonna show. SMH. 
 

yet it’s still a 10pt game.

Hawks fans are delusional when it comes to this guy.. They want to win that trade so bad.. smh

There comes a point in time when there's just no reason to even entertain Peos nonsense. 

I passed that point a while ago.

Because Trae is NO Leader...

Woulda said zero chance Nate gets fired coming onto this series but with the way its played out, you gotta wonder if Nate takes the fall. This is embarrassing.

I mean, this offense is trash without Trae.

I think we still have 4 timeouts. Nate is saving them for Cancun.
