With the exception of Trae and Murray, we are playing well. We just gotta shoot better. 1/12 from 3 and 72% from the FT line ain't gonna cut it. 

Gotta move the ball and trust the offense.

Defensively, most of our issues have been primarily in the paint. We need to cut that down. Overall, this is a game we should win by 20. Let's continue the defensive intensity and shoot better than trash

Thats a HUGE exception.. smh

Just sitting down and we're leading at half by 1 despite Rozier looking like he wants another monster game and the Hawks are shooting 8.3% from 3. 

Are they at least running the offense or is it right back to normal Trae ball?

We are definitely running an offense but we are trusting it. We got to trust it. Just because shots aren't falling, that doesn't mean we abandon it. We built some bad habits from the Nate era and abandoning plans when the shot is not falling is one of them. 

Charlotte is always an issue for us because they are great at defending the 1/5 PnR since they landed Mark Williams. Trae has a tendency to want to spam that when our shot is not falling, especially his. We gotta stick to Quin offense.

The latter

I'll reserve judgment, but we ran offensive sets in the preseason. I know it's there, so if we don't see it in the regular season, then it's intentional. 

[Peoriabird]

Nice play Trae!

[kg01]

Ball is our mvp. 

[Peoriabird]

FOLLOWED BY A STUPID PLAY!!!

[kg01]

Ball amd Trae playing a weird game of who sucks worse. 

[Carmine]

Trae will never have a hot start to a season huh...

[NBASupes]

Trust the offense, fellas.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Trae needs to let the 30 footer go, to see if it will get him going.

[Peoriabird]
