  1. See what happens when you invest in your bench? You don’t really have Aaron Holiday be a key perimeter defender.

  2. Wow we dropped the ball when Delon Wright left imagine him and Trae when Dejounte sits. Hawks gotta do something we are way better than .500

  3. The problem I see with the Hawks is… They don't use Collins to his strengths at all.

    2. They don't have a guy they can play through in the post. Or at least they don't choose to.

    3. I also believe it is very hard on a team when your PF and your C can't take advantage of mismatches consistently.

    Collins nor Capella dominate their matchups from game to game on the offensive end. So the Hawks consistently have to get points from the Wings and backcourt players.

    When you watch the Hawks play Trae and Murray always get the best defenders on them. And Collins can never take advantage of his match-ups tonight was a game that Collins was supposed to have 30 pts no lower than 25pts.

    You can't afford to pay a player like him as much money as he get and he can't deliver when the team needs him to deliver.

    So I think they need to trade him for a guy that can actually take advantage of the 4th best defender on a team.

    If they aren't going to get Collins the ball in the open court and run more… Then they just need to move on.

  4. My problem w this hawks team is that it feels like the fans have a better grasp of the problems and what needs to be done than the coaching staff. This might be a hot take but I’m just tired of Trae also. Would love a 1for1 trade with him for someone like Ant or Desmond Bane idk he just feels suffocating to play with. Demands the ball every possession for its entirety just to chuck up some bs and get HIS numbers. I’m done with this team until serious changes are made.

  5. Maybe the hawks should tank this road trip any reasonable player they would add puts them over the tax. The player profile they need would be cheaper in the draft they hopefully we have 3 picks in the next 2 years. Especially since anytime we lose any player it seems devastating no depth. @#%$ this franchise…
