I'll be so glad to get rid of Nate's ass after the season. This team is playing like its given up on the coach in the last two losses. 

But Nate and his refusal to adjust to the modern NBA is just death to this franchise until he's gone. Team won't shoot threes, no fast breaks, just bad shots and no emphasis to try and shoot three's. The modern game is all about the three point shot.

I think I have to check out for a few games. I'm so sick of watching this.

When the hell Hartenstein become a high level rim protector?  I like the way he clears the board and protects the pass too.

Btw this will be back to back games the Hawks did not have a lead the entire game. Pathetic.

He's always been tough but man, he's next level with Thibs.

Bench the guys

You can tell Brunson takes more training shooting reps than most.

Yeah I checked out at halftime.  Why did Jollins not return?  I suspect I know why.

I'm surprised most of yall didn't see this coming.  Last game before break.  Last game was the first after the super bowl.  Needed a good professional effort, got none.  Par for our course.

I see agenda-squawk is alive and kickin'  .....

I was almost done but Cole Anthony totally ruined the dunk contest for me.  No Ja or Anthony Edwards, instead G-Leaguers.  Should be awesome lol.

1. Ja Morant, Darius Garland, Zach Lavine, Jason Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Kyrie Irving, James Harden, Donovan Mitchell, Jamal Murray, Dame Lillard, Anthony Edwards...go down the list of guards or "max" players, all of them are shooting better than 45% from the field.

Trae trails every one of them and is the only one shooting below 45% from the field this year.

In Trae's entire career, he's only shot better than 45% one season.

We aint winning shit like that regardless of who we put around him..if he's gonna be the #1 guy....

 

2. Please get JC, Capela, and Bogi off of this team in the offseason. 

Might as well Start JJ, OO,  bring CC off the bench, and let AJ be the 6th man for the remainder of the season..(I know Nate wont do that just sayin)

Its time to start looking ahead to next year.. This team is done..

 

3. Please dont let Trae make any more trades for his friends.....

Well it is the All-Star break coming up, so this is a good time to decompress.
