Nate McMillan on the 1Q: “It shouldn’t have happened. Urgency, energy, scrappy play is something you have to bring to floor every single game. You can’t wait until you’re busted in the mouth to respond. “We just did not come out and match their urgency.”

De’Andre Hunter on how they avoid nights like tonight: “We just got to come out ready. We talked about that pregame. Being ready, we knew they were gonna come out with a lot of energy. They’re on a three-game win streak, I think. So we just got to be better.”

Onyeka Okongwu on how they get better at coming out ready: “We just can’t come out lackadaisacal. You know, giving up 50 points in one quarter is kind of ridiculous. But it’s the NBA. We’re all here for a reason, everybody can play. We just got to be ready from the start.”

OO on what tonight taught them: “We gotta be playing hard all 48 minutes. I’m looking at the stat sheet, we played good in every other quarter, but the first. You know, we put ourselves in a big hole and just couldn’t get out of it.”

McMillan, on Capela:
“Clint came out in that fourth quarter – had tightness in his calf – and had to be removed from the game.”

    Hawks hurt me so bad, I turned off Lauren, Kevin, and Brad’s tweet notifications bc of their live game comments 🤧

  2. Jfc, this is the worst possible shit he could’ve said.

  3. SirGoaty

    Never thought watching this team would be so hard…..

  4. I wonder if Nate has a list of buzz words for after he gets spanked by a lottery team

    We should just create a Nate McMillan post-game comment random word generator with all his favorite phrases, save everyone a whole lot of time.

    we have not been the same since the showboating

    somebody has to go, and i think we start with nate mcmillian.

    Hawks will never be good with Ressler and as an owner. More worried about staying under the luxury tax than having a good team.

  8. “You can’t wait until you’re busted in the mouth to respond.”

    Well, why didn’t you respond earlier Nate?!

    See you guys near the trade deadline. The hawks can’t make me sad if I pretend they don’t exist

  11. RoninFerret67

    I am just so goddamn tired man. This team is exhausting. Exhausting to watch, to think about, to contemplate. What happened to us?

  12. Atl-Fan_FTS

    The Hawks getting BLASTED in /nba right now

  13. drhoops15

    How many full time reporters do we have? And none of them could ask a player about this shitshow?

  14. datasxienxe

    Even the skyhawks could beat these bums. Fucking sad ass team

  15. datasxienxe

    Nate McMillan doesn’t deserve to keep his Job and Tony Ressler doesn’t deserve to be an NBA owner. Wishing bad health and luck to those two awful men.

  16. We need this time for the sub to lower expectations and become fun again. The process is painful though. Takes a lot to get me to stop watching. Can’t stop myself from following the pbp, but I need a break from the live action unless I’m in attendance.
