If Dre played like bogi has over the last 2 weeks, Dre would be the target of almost every poster but since its Bogi only Terrel has uttered token criticism.  So typical of this fan base.  By the way, now the narrative on this board is that Dre is playing better because he is coming off the bench.  also No comments on Bey's poor shooting.

Because I don't have favorites.. Just a Hawks fan..

JJ is already on my all time favorite Hawks list though...

I only caught the last few minutes, but it seems they got it together after those poor showings against Brooklyn.  Hopefully JJ asserted himself the way his stat line indicates.  He's got to stop deferring out there.  On to the next one !!!

Bob was talking about how they were able to have a full practice which helped Quin to implement his specific game plan.

It seems so.  He's been more willing as a three point shooter and refrains from trying to do stuff on offense he shouldn't.  Also, bringing him off the bench has done wonders which I think some of us suggested would be best for him earlier on in the season.

I remember a game last year when Dre had a wide open 3 and instead of taking it, faked and did the old dribble to try and get midrange and turned it over.....Quin on the sidelined was PISSED. You aren't seeing that from Dre anymore.....Catch/shoot or drive.....quicker decisions on Dre's part. Instead of reacting to what the defense gives him...he's making the defense react to him.

I also think they heavy minutes are catching up to Bogi.

Wow . We played hard from the tip. JJ is a star ️. He made some tough shots included that fadeaway bank I love the way he uses the glass and makes things easier. He makes really tough shots look easy.

Who was #12 on the Hawks? That baseline jam I rewound it 7 times. He came in pissed off at someone and played one of the most aggressive and best all around games of the season and possibly ever in his pro career. Keep it up D, dam doh  

Bruno ended somebody on a wammer too!

 

The D was tenacious!!! Bring this every night please! Loved the action tonight and the sticktoitiveness!!!

Blew the lead but held on for the win.

GO HAWKS!!!!

How sweet it is.

That person should be banned like me..

Man JJ is that dude he is easily my favorite player on the team i honestly believe when all said and done he will be the face of the franchise.  Theirs absolutely nothing he can't do on the court at a atleast above avg or better level.  Trae is the face right now for sure and he has earned it but as a complete player and all around game JJ's ceiling to be a superstar is higher than anyone on this team if he can reach it.

[bleachkit]

Great team win. Didn't fold at the end of the game. 

[AUhawksfan]

I just don’t understand this team but I will say I haven’t seen this sort of offensive consistency from Dre before so hopefully he keeps it up.

Whatever version of Hunter this is, is the version we wanted and needed the whole time.

 

I absolutely hope he can continue this throughout his career.

Maybe it is the fewer minutes, bench role.  At this point, we have to consider that's it.  It's the only substantive change ... other than (whispers) ... the avatar... vatar...atar....ar...

I need to update a couple threads I made about Hunter and JJ. Aka Marvin and “he can’t be our starter at PF”…

it was all a dream ..-smalls

Nightmare with those picks more like it… I thought Hawks and Braves had a dynasty with Trae Cam Hunter JC OO like Acuña Albies Harris and the rest of the ️ studs.

Its ok we shall retool a bit.
