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

[terrell]

What a joke of a season for us....

When will the nightmare end?

[Threezus]

So the one play i didn't understand is on the Capela blocking foul that gave mcgee 2 FT's.   If im not mistaken with Capela planted and not moving at all with his hands up.  How was that not a charge on mcgee instead of blocking on Capela.  He played that defense perfectly so maybe i just don't understand the rule at this point lol.

I haven't been to a Hawks game live all year.

I finally get some time freed up in late April to make a trip.  But I need them to make the playoffs.

The Blocking foul... and giving them the ball at the end were bad calls.

Just droppin by to say this is probably the dumbest team I've seen in a long while. Foul with no time left. Passing to Bogie with his back to basket and no time to shoot. Just dumb. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Stop doubling the perimeter!

ok so im not crazy then on the blocking foul being wrong.   None of the announcers said anything about it and we didn't review it.  Not sure if we have a review left or not can't remember.   But i swear that was textbook by clint i don't understand what more he could have done.

So the plan is to attack Luka every time on defense . . . with guards quicker but smaller than him . . . with McGee on the back line.

Just run the pick and roll and see if the ball can move.

Finally a lob to Capela.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Trae 4 - 16 FG in the 2nd half.

Tough going for him.

Need to make one of them though.

[Marvin24Williams]

Murray and Trae haven taken like all the shots the last 8 or so minutes. This is ridiculous. ZERO ball movement

[terrell]

So much for Trae shooting 50%.. Geez..

My prayer wasnt anwered..

[Iverwig]

Let’s see how uncreative the Hawks players get with 6.7 seconds left. How many of them will just stand around looking?

That's the norm this year it seems..

The game plan was obviously to target Luka in isolation.  But neither guy has been successful recently.  Luka is ass on defense, but they're too small.

Let's see how this ends.

That is definitely not the norm.

He hasn't been great in the 2nd half, but not 4 - 16 bad.

[bird_dirt]

Where’s AJ?

[terrell]

lol Trae almost turned it over there..

Make your FT's..
