DJ's handle continues to baffle me. 

His dribble is too high and he pounds the ball to hard.

It's simple - defend at the level of the screen and then hustles back to the paint.  It also requires his teammates to hedge the roller giving him time to get back.  Timing and understanding of roles.

He's our most versatile defender. He can do everything.

It’s an absolute killer in the playoffs when hands get super active with fewer whistles.

Kobe being back means no Forrest min...

 

Forrest needs to get cut to make room for Vit on the playoff roster.

Bang bang play to me

I’m over these charge challenges (unless the Hawks win )

I like Trent, yet can’t argue one bit.

There is zero chance if I had the option between him and Trae, I am choosing Murray when it matters. RS with our current personnel, I prefer Murray but in the playoffs, easily Trae.

You have to make a decision.  There was contact.

He bought in on defense and not dominating possessions as much, but he's still trash at playing offball. He has a habit of standing still at the top of the key and he doesn't take shots in rhythm. Hunter moves better then him now and both were bad early on.

He was a lot further along than DJ or Hunter before he got hurt. DJ openly complained about the coaching and was rumored to be open to getting moved during the trade deadline. Trae still has a ways to go as far as playing off the ball, but he was trying on both ends from the start. DJ didn't really "buy in" until after the trade deadline and Hunter hit his stride after his knee injury.

You play DeRozan straight up and live with those shots...don't go for the pump fake and put him at the line.

Lets go Hawks!!

That may be true, and he's still has a ways to go, but I'm not talking about DJ though.

Trae is the best player and we go where he takes us. Another thing he does that I don't like is jogging on offense when he's not bringing the ball up when he should be running and putting pressure on the defense.

Watching the Chicago stream. Bogi and Quin got into it

Might need to petition the league to allow Bruno to wear some wide receiver gloves.

Held them to 101.
