Official Game Thread: Hawks at Magic

Boy did we need that win. Great job by the guys to finish it out, even though really never felt we were gonna lose that one. Hope JC and Hunter are ok. And big props to Culver: Dude has barely played this season, but contributed nicely tonight.

I see we beat the hell outta Orlando. Were we good or was Orlando that bad

 

How the hell did Culver and Vit play so many mins

DJM playing 39 minutes in a blow out? Really Nate?

Lol what!

Defense and rebounding until the shots start falling 

[terrell]

Who had Jarrett Culver as the most exciting Hawk of the 2019 Draft class on their bingo card?

[terrell]

 

That up and under move by AJG in the paint tonight, it is very rare for a rookie to pull that off without getting called for traveling. His footwork is elite...

Was Martin stuck in College Park? Would have loved to see him play

Trae and Clint used Orlando as playthings obviously with Bamba, Carter, and Okeke out.  Banchero is abysmal defensively.  Dre with a sore leg I think and John sprained an ankle in the first half.  Cole Anthony doing Cole Anthony like things.

Think he was.

Happy we got the win.

Great Display of how good we can be.. I was happy to see the ball moving and shots falling.   It seems like a little better communication out there, especially in the first half. 

BTW...

Luka More skilled than Trae...  PLEASE.

This game is Evidence #1 of Trae's great skill.   Did you see some of those passes??  Sheez the over the shoulder assist to Capela for #14...

Hey @TheNorthCydeRises Why is it so quiet in here?  For the last three games, by this time we were up to 20 pages?  Is it a Holiday or something?

[terrell]

 

 

[Diesel]

I can't believe we let Banchero put two of our guys on the shelf...

I know that Dre' had the hip flexor coming in and Banchero running him over may have aggravated that. 

But damnit, it looked like he purposely stood under John on the Dunk....

I know he's a Rookie and probably dumb as a box of hammers on defense but we should have sent somebody to tighten him up. 

We need an enforcer.

 

[Diesel]

If we get two or three more good performances by Culver... if Somebody were to shoot us a deal for Hunter, I would be obliged to hear them out.

The sad part is I didn’t notice Hunter wasn’t out there in the 2nd half till I read this post.

Culver was out there and though he didn't score as much... He brought Rebounds, steals, and Blocks.  I would say he made the most of his time... he's trying to get more PT!

[terrell]

It is definitely nice to finally bounce back and secure this much needed victory. This was a team effort and the ball moved much better... Trae was distributing perfect dimes ..Dejounte with a smooth night..Besides the stupid turnovers..AJ is the real deal.. Culver needs more PT if hes gonna defend and fight for boards like he did tonight.. Didnt miss Dre at all.... Big test on Friday against Denver.

I wasn't able to watch the game tonight, but are these injuries serious?  Are we going to be running Culver 30 minutes against the Nuggets Friday? 

How was AJ tonight?

Trae was 10/12 from 2? lol... drives? middies? Looks like the 3 ball still not falling but he was still very efficient?

How did Krejci look?
