Mikey Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Departure of Chris Jent is very notable. The hawks primary shooting coach and offensive assistant. You guys that are big fans of nate (for whatever reasons that is even though he stinks) are going to really see who he is next season barring an amazing offensive assistant hire. Such a loss to this team. Still have trae though and roster might be upgraded so I expect them to be a top 10 offense still but losing potentially the only good coach on the bench is troublesome to an already middle of the pack team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theheroatl Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Not worried about it. It’s a player driven league anyway. Coaches are always overrated and blamed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRW Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 MarylandHawk, lets get the whole gang back together, why not bring back Lloyd Pierce too. That would surely add to the craziness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member MarylandHawk Posted June 19, 2022 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 I just want some real team defense. We see year after year whoever wins the title has a top 5ish team defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRW Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Guys, do you all believe the Bradley Beal to L.A. Lakers rumors. I've been hearing these rumors all day. No, I'm not an insider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLHawks3 Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 This probably means he's promoting Joe Prunty to his top assistant coach in the interim, smh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLHawks3 Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 I'm hoping we can somehow poach Earl Watson from Toronto's coaching staff. 13-year NBA Vet and a really bright Basketball mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dre and Trae had marked improvement to their shots too, not sure if Trae kills it from mid range like he did without him. If we drop off significantly from our 2nd ranked team 3 point % of .374 it won’t be hard to figure out why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member JeffS17 Posted June 19, 2022 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Good coaches get poached, especially if we have no upward mobility for them. I hope we can make a solid outside hire to be a strong voice that isn’t a Nate crony. I suspect Nate hiring his son rubs guys the wrong way and creates an awkward vibe on the staff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect Nate hiring his son rubs guys the wrong way and creates an awkward vibe on the staff I first had an issue with the nepotism but then I looked at his resume'. I saw where he has worked under Monty Williams & Alvin Gentry. Those are two great basketball coaches. If we do get Ayton, I would not be surprised at all if knowing coach Jamelle won't be a factor.
