WHATEVER THEY ARE DOING, IT'S WORKING!

[Gray Mule]

Hawks woes continue.  Whatever our opponents are doing, it's working.  Word, I'm sure, has gone out to all NBA teams, "This is what you do to defeat the Atlanta Hawks."  Like a cheap job on a re-paint of an old auto, the 4th quarter sees this Hawk team fade away.  We always seem to keep the score close.  Doesn't matter.  Regardless of the opponent, victory is ready and waiting.  

Who gets the blame?  Doesn't matter.  Is it the players on the floor?  Could it be that the coach has inserted the wrong players?  Hawks scrap and fight for every inch of ground that they have lost earlier in the final quarter.  They seem to always come up just a bit short.  One very hot shooter and one great big, giant-sized center proved our undoing in Chicago.  They had just passed us in the standings and now they gain another game with this win.

There must be a solution to this problem and the entire Hawk organization must find it and find it quickly because we see this entire season quietly slipping out the back door.

Having said all of that, the question is, "What are the Hawks going to do to solve this puzzle?  

"Hawks looking to trade."  But, are they really?  Smoke coming from the Squawk but no real fire in sight.

Injuries abound and we're drownding in our tears.  Help!!

Yep. Can’t trade for any upgrades using broken down parts. Doesn’t work at car dealerships, and it won’t work here either.

That’s the gist of it isn’t it.  What a conundrum this is turning into.

On another note, tried to catch a glimpse of DJ Wagner for the first time during that UK Louisville game the other day.  Two quick fouls and not a lot of minutes so that didn’t go as planned.  You think he transfers?

time to trade. if you think Young isnt the answer whats the best time to send him packing ??  I have seen this entire roster turned over and we cant seem to get the right pieces to compliment him . Maybe its him ??

He’ll get drafted, most likely lotto pick. 
He’s balling, he’s a good player. Somewhere between Maxey and Quickley.

The only pieces we've tried are DJ and Bey.   I think we can try harder.
