Official Game Thread: Warriors at Hawks

[REHawksFan]

They are starting to really play well together and figure it all out.  Gotta just let them play it out this year and see what happens. Forget the trade stuff. Deal with that in the offseason.

Hawks can get a little needed rest tomorrow.

Clippers play Miami tomorrow night before coming to ATL.

There is an agenda...

Best offensive game of the year from our front court. 

By far.

Great win, also love DJ, but we still need to move him if we can get good value back.  He's not bought in at all -- sold out a ton of possessions that game... might need to wait until the offseason though.

If these teams are still talking about protected firsts and other trash, I'm not interested.

Hawks are now 10-7 when both JJ and Dre play...

While Dre offensively was meh tonight. He did help on defense during his limited minutes. I wish Garrison gave us more.

No disrespect to Jalen...

But Trae gave you 35 on 56/64/80 % shootings.  7 three pointers.  And Trae don't get no mention???

They don't want you to see Trae Cooking!!

If we're going to let it play out, we should at least go get a forward with some size.

Quite a ways off yet, but starting to wonder what it might look like with a healthy Mo G in some of these rotations.

[bleachkit]

Trae third on the team in assists tonight. Has that ever happened before?

[bird_dirt]

Shout out to Trae putting in the work to get Kuminga to foul out in the fourth. I knew that would be big if they went into OT, and GS definitely missed him. 

[MarylandHawk]

So entertaining when they play like this.

Adding a long athletic wing (yes he's a 6'11"wing right now) that can block shots and hit open threes can only help. He's raw but the tools he has right now can help the Hawks. It's a shame he got hurt.

It's not paranoia if you're right.

Not sure.  But I think it shows that he isn’t fixated on getting his overall numbers.  Plays for team.  Plays for that W.

GS was straight doubling Trae from the 3rd onward

You’re right.  And I feel he did a pretty good job getting around it for the most part.  I think he recognizes that and doesn’t force it.  He takes a step back when he has to.  When DJ or somebody else is rolling he lets them work.

[Bonzaii58]

Love this win. But I’d still like to know why AJ can’t get minutes. Would have loved to see him get some of Matthew’s minutes. If he isn’t going to play and needs to develop the send him to the G league at least.

We had a couple TOs due to not dealing with the press well in the 3rd but fixed it in the 3th and OT
