    At least Bruno showed out. Was a +7 tonight and earned regular minutes in our rotation

  2. MiserableSoft2344

    Cleveland beat us on the glass 49 – 34 without Evan Mobley. Jesus Christ.

  3. realdusty_shelf

    Would SA take Murray back? He’d be perfect for Wemby

  4. Chessh2036

    Hawks have scored 100 points in 80 straight game.

    Hawks have allowed 100 points in 94 straight games.

    Not much to say about that game other than I hope you spent your Saturday night doing something else. Trae has been balling but that’s about the only thing going right for us. Pistons next. If we lose that one I might check out.

  5. Chessh2036

    Also, I truly believe the Ressler Family is the worst thing to happen to the Hawks since the Atlanta Spirit Group.

  6. ahend1999

    actually i kinda want to lose to the pistons so i can see if ressler gonna do something? 😭👀 (im joking of course)

  7. Garunix45

    We thought we got a bargain with OO extension, but he actually swindled us

  8. Trae is playing the best ball he’s played in years and I still hear people calling him a bum because WE CAN’T FUCKING WIN

  9. IllumiXXZoldyck

    Very impressed with Bruno this game. Didn’t feel like we were missing easy boards with his presence, though of course we still missed harder ones (expectedly).

  10. Aardvark-0001

    I still am having trouble with why we played Wes over Bruno at the end when he was the only getting any type of rebounds…

  11. IllumiXXZoldyck

    You see, Deandre’s stats aren’t poor this game, but there is a not so positive impact that reveals itself through actually watching. Sometimes he didn’t even try to contest. I feel bad because he also got kneed on his knee.

  12. MiserableSoft2344

    Really pathetic that Bruno, Patty, and Garrison are the only ones who look motivated right now.

  13. falconhawk2158

    It’s sucks because we can’t get any momentum because every game there’s a different 2 or 3 players out of the lineup. We are not good enough to always have 2 or 3 starters out every game and honestly it’s depressing with how well Trae is playing. We need players that don’t sit out because they are a little sore because we need some consistency

  14. No-Forever-6104

    This team needs another legitimate wing player apart from JJ, a starting center?, and a 2guard where’d it all go wrong

  15. coup9thermidor

    Hawks gonna snap that 23 game losing streak 🙏

  16. IllumiXXZoldyck

    Trae at least, is playing like himself again. I’m impressed though this is customary when he gets going. Saddiq struggled a lot. We probably could have tested Lundy when Saddiq was 1-5 FGM and 1-4 3PM. Let alone 1-9/1-7

  17. None of these first round picks have turned into anything. Straight up depressing. Trae is the only bonafide hit smh

  18. MiserableSoft2344

    It kinda sucks for AJ because this would have been a perfect opportunity for him to prove himself. I hope he’s doing okay.

  19. HawksAnt2021

    We need to seriously consider sending AJ to the G League to gain some confidence and get in rhythm. Let him put up 20 shots/game and hopefully in a few weeks he will come back confident and ready to contribute…

    While we can’t send OO to the G League, he would 100% benefit from going down for two weeks just so he could put up a bunch of shots within an offense…he would benefit from being a #1 option for a bit

    AJ gets no run so he should absolutely be with the Skyhawks.

  20. WheneverYh

    Why is Quinn always taking out players who are actually having a good game just to put in starters? In 15min played Bruno had 13 points & 8 rebounds. Second most was Bey with 6 rebounds but in *32* minutes.
    Same thing happened multiple times with taking Bogi out when he’s on a shooting spree even if starters are struggling to shoot.

    I remember when asked about changing starting lineups he said something like “it’s not only important who starts the game, it’s important who closes them too” only to start and close games with same players & not hot hands.

    I guess having your bench outplay your starters isn’t a good look or something lol & today benches bench center did exactly that so he was rewarded with sitting down and watching inability to rebound kill any chance left.

    RE Bogi: wasn’t he asking to be subbed out yesterday & slightly limped while walking of the court? No one said anything so I hoped I saw something that wasn’t there.

  21. No-Forever-6104

    They had my franchise cornerstone going to war with John Collins and now Dejounte Murray man 💔💔

  22. BigSlimSu

    We’re missing 3 key guys tonight , scheduled loss move on…

  23. We’ve had so many games like this before Clint got here. I don’t think most realize how much of a impact he has in the paint since hes gotten here. We can take him and Trae for granted at times

  24. No-Forever-6104

    If we lose to the pistons I won’t watch another basketball game tbh

  25. ahend1999

    December has got to be the worse as far as injuries go for the Hawks. It’s always December. This year this, last year: several starters were in and out of the lineup sometimes having 3/5 or 4/5 starters sitting, two years ago: had the biggest roster in the league due to health and safety protocols- lost like 10ish games to covid

  26. LegendaryIam

    Didn’t get to watch, was Bogi just resting? Or was he hurt? Saw Bogi back. Clint was also out, so hoping all is well and no injuries?

  27. Boraismybae

    Bruno 13/8 in 16 minutes and was impactful when on the floor. Then Quin proceeds to do what he does best – go away from whats working. Yes let’s finish small…. that’s exactly what got us in this hole in the first place. Good grief Quin. You have to be better than that.

  28. Radimov79

    I honestly don’t understand this game, we looked like a pygmy team compared to the Cavs, they beat us every rebound (OO caught 4 in 32 minutes), the minutes Bruno comes out we solve this and Quin is not able to leave him on the court.

    ​

    Bey with 11.1% shooting from the field and he is not able to give a single minute to Lundy.

    ​

    It’s incomprehensible and it’s starting to get very tiring.

  29. IllumiXXZoldyck

    Big O is my guy! 🙌 Struggled this game though. I hope he can both develop quick footing and continue to improve his shot .

  30. Defiant_Gear4524

    We need dirty players. The players and culture on this team are too naive. Am I wrong? For example, we need types like PJ Tucker and Jae Crowder. The Hawks clash and fight stubbornly and do not have that kind of fighting spirit.

  31. Renverseur

    Quin ruined a Bruno 30 nugget I’m just putting it out there

  32. IAM-French

    We need to lose the Pistons game so that the moves can happen now and not in 2 months

  33. lilyahweh

    This is probably the best basketball stretch for Trae in his career and we just can’t win.

  34. Fuck it start OO and Capela together every game till JJ is back and have Bruno be the backup
