It wouldn't be so bad if our 6th overall pick wasn't playing like a complete bum.

He just missed the hell out of a lob...

Changes need to be made if we are rolling with this Young-Murray backcourt. 

Nope.  Just need to add Bogi to see how he affects the dynamic of the team.

Everytime he's been out of this lineup for an extended period of time, the Hawks were at or below .500.

When he came back, the Hawks in 2 consecutive seasons played at a top 10 level.

If you think we don't miss Clint, then you're blind...

I think Clint is extremely important to us, defensively, though he does stifle JC a bit as well.  Bogi will also be helpful, assuming he scores a dozen or more points a game and hits some threes.  I still am unsure if those two are enough to make us a top four seed.  
Fingers crossed I'm just in a bad mood today and we figure a bunch of stuff out over the next couple months and round into shape in time for the playoffs.

I’ve noticed Nique doesn’t call opponents’ shots “terrible” and “awful” anymore and even criticizes bad Hawks shots.  Baby steps lol.

Bogi is really really good offensively. I think we forget about it because he's so f***ing terrible on D.

Nate ain't it. 

 

 

 

Okongwu ain't it. 

 

 

 

Landry Fields ain't it.

 

 

 

Kaminsky ain't it.

 

 

 

The Holidays brothers ain't it.

Bogi may offer a lot of help but our deffencies are clear...  I just heard Bam call OO "my bitch".

Relying on an injury prone player that may never be back to 100% is a ticket for Nate to be fired.

[Atlantaholic]

We spent four top 10 picks in Cam Reddish, Hunter and Okonguw. That's awful. 

[Bonkers]

Even Nique calls out Trae's garbage ball hogging, shot wasting ways

 

Salute Nique

Well, starting the season, we looked good.   Against some good teams.    So we have something...

Hunter's 2 RPG and lack of steals/blocks as a combo forward ain't it.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Nate had to challenge that.

[benhillboy]

Super surprised they took away that Lowry three.  But they follow it up with a shit call on Dre of course.  And Nate is silent as a mouse

Collins, Huerter and Griffin (I know still early but he has it) were great picks.

Damn! Rough L

But Hunter is a player that has a massive impact despite the fact he produces nothing of note on the stat sheet. Is why oppossing SFs like Caleb Martin and Kenyon Martin JR were shut down the last couple of games. Stuff that doesn't show up on the stat sheet.
