Jalen so special- we sorely needed a big that could do what he can do. 

Makes this miserable season worthwhile watching this kid grow.......

Toronto just lost.  Chicago down 15 with a minute to go.  That helps.  
It also means that Boston and Philly will probably rest their starters against us now.

Lol these dudes really trying to prove themselves here.

The Hawks will most likely have to play Miami at Miami in the Play In. I wouldn't have it any other way. They're going to have to face them head on and get past that psychological hurdle. Demolish them on their own court and TAKE the 7th seed.

We have won 3 games in a row.  We are more that 1 game from .500!!! Streak Busted.

I don't know what to do with myself!

I'm just gonna DANCE!!!

If I'm correct, then after tonight nothing more can change with the top four seeds.  Philly has the tiebreaker against Cleveland already, so no one can catch anyone.
Looks like we will get the 8th seed and play Miami on the road.  Even if we lose, I like our chances against Toronto or Chicago in the second play-in game.  Then we would play Milwaukee.  If we beat Miami, we play Boston.  
Likely 4-2 series loss to either of them... but stuff can happen...

OO is having a ROUGH game.

For a fleeting second there, I thought maybe just maybe Q finally gives Bruno some real minutes.

Broken record alert... not mine, ours... a common refrain of the last two playoffs among Squawkers has been that we really coulda used some legitimate low post meat. We are thin as it is.

Cue the Bob Seger.

Holy crap I didn't think that kid was real. Thought he was Barakka from MK3 until I saw his Dad next to him.

Ok Trae..Make 1 more shot to shoot .500....

I have to say it, but when the player on your team that takes the most shots is below league average efficiency, how can you win that way?
