So why is JJ out of the rotation again?  I see Holiday is playing.

I think we underestimated how much Kevin help our offense even if he gave it up on the other end just as much for us. 

Can’t compare the two IMO.  Sabonis’ playmaking is superior to all 5 of our Bigs COMBINED.  No level of offense could account for how easily-exploited  the Trae-Huerter defensive combo was. Hell drivers attack DJ almost like he’s Kevin smh.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

This team can't play like this at home.   Unacceptable performance so far.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Brunson is DESTROYING Murray.  Come on man.

I don't think I've ever heard our announcers praising the opposition and complaining about our players as much as I've heard in this first half.  They sound as frustrated as we are.

[benhillboy]

Brunson is just so much smarter than the average player.  Barrett on the other hand my God.

[h4wkfan]

This team has so many warts when we aren’t on fire from 3. 
 

we need to restructure the team …  everyone not named Trae and AJ can go in the off-season. Coaches included. Sigh. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

SMH

[benhillboy]

Where the hell the Hawks find Dre at lol.

He is capable of excellent man D but he jumps for steals and blocks too much like someone is playing 2k, controlling him all undisciplined.

I'm sure we'll hold them under 70 points this half!

[benhillboy]

Well that was a big boy move by Bey.  What is it 1998?

[Guest]

We did it!  We did it!

[TheNorthCydeRises]

4 people watching a rebound hit the damn floor, and the Knicks get it.

I’ve been quite disappointed.  His footwork, communication, and knowing tendencies are all lacking.  And he picked a fine time for an epic drop off in the rebounding department, almost 3 fewer than last season.  One of the main things we lack is quick transition starts from rebounders.  Capela clearing and finding Trae all the time wastes two seconds too often.  I can count DJ’s coast to coast finishes or play makes this season on one damn hand.  Draymond doing that shit 2 or 3 times a night.

Because hes the better player.. Hawks wouldve been better off getting Derrick White from SA when he was available.. smh

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Shoot the ball Trae.  Shot selection be damned.  Let the entire arsenal fly.

I want to see 21+ shot attempts, no matter what your shooting percentage is.

Just stay in attack mode.

I think Nate is gone over the Allstar break. Dont be surprised if someone else has the clipboard nest week.
