Official Game Thread: Raptors at Hawks (6 PM Tip!)

[NBASupes]

We miss way too many open shots

[JayBirdHawk]

Give AJ ALL the minutes!!!

[Carmine]

Watching this team is not a fun activity.

The issue with Trae v. Toronto is his defense. The issue v. Toronto without Trae is offense.

OO has had a horrible season tbh..

He actually has some of the best stats in the league around the rim this year but let the Squawk tell it, he's Alex Len 2.0

These string of jump passes are aggravating me but I’m always impressed watching AJ use his body on O and D. 

[NBASupes]

JC is trying to score from non JC scoring areas. It's strange

His usage of his body and hands are very impressive

There is clearly lots of hesitation from everyone on offense.  Trae trying to defer, Murray not wanting to appear to dominate, Collins not ready when he rarely gets the ball, Hunter trying to drive when he doesn't have the handels.  
Only Griffin seems confident.  
It will all eventually improve, and we still have a decent early record.  But, without more three point makes we have a rough road.  Bogi alone won't be enough.  Others have to break out of their slumps.

Damnit!

You use stats when it's convenient to you depending on the player.

Doesn't change the fact that he's been missing too many shots at the rim the last few games.

Len has stone hands and would fumble great passes - no comparison.

Yikes

Murray defense is CRITICAL for us. FVV was killing us till Murray came with the clamps

[MaceCase]

Trae Maestro

Keep it going Trae CC and Murray.. You have NO help....Besides the 19 yer old rookie....

I think JC been playing well today. I need more from Hunter and Okongwu though.

The touch on that long outlet pass was soooo perfect!

[JayBirdHawk]

I want to see the fire from OO that I see when he plays Giannis and Embiid.

[NBASupes]

Hunter, drive damnit!

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Hunter having a nightmare game so far.  Still have to take shots though if he's open.
