    Just close with OO when you’re losing and need to score

  2. Virginiaisforloafers

    I feel myself losing motivation to watch this shit

  3. landonswink57382

    High key im down with tanking for bronny

  4. gggg3344

    I’m mad and have a ton of hot takes in my head rn. But, fuck it. Trust the process, give it 8-10 more games, i hope to see a lot of improvement soon. We move. Trae, grow the fuck up, but I love you.

  5. YeeezusWept

    What western conference teams we watching this year?

  6. Dare555

    Just like the first game Bogi did well but only got 25 minutes…? A player like Bogi should be getting 30 + constantly i guess thats one of issues of Murray trade Bogi is pushed down now.

    He was getting heavy minutes in ECF run especially when Hawks crushed Knicks and that was key to success now sadly seems there is no place for him. If Hawks not gonna count on Bogi to have starter minutes i guess they will have to trade him ?

  7. No-Forever-6104

    Two games in a row the opposing teams center has gotten away with it defensively. Quin should know better. Capela is consistently getting blown by on these traps and it’s causing the hawks to be in rotation too often

  8. Eastatlantalit

    Never thought a Thibs team would get up more 3s than us

  9. trofesh195

    If only we had a max level player to count on in the clutch…

  10. ahend1999

    rayford sr aint gonna like the build around jalen speak 😭😭

  11. IceTraeDaGang

    Trae is ass until he shows otherwise

  12. Wazzammm

    If you counting the team out now, see ya✌🏼 stay off the sub if you’re gonna b**** and say the season is over I’m tired of the doomers here

  13. No-Forever-6104

    If there’s one thing I miss about JC it’s his defense bey isn’t it on that end yet

  14. Ajaxx42

    Need an optimist perspective because I’m already ready to end it all

  15. WzrdKelly10

    Hawks will not take my joy for basketball away this year. I refuse it.

  16. trofesh195

    Simply put, had Trae just stayed home tonight we would have won this game.

  17. MacinTez

    This was not a bad game by the Hawks and was winnable when it shouldn’t have been.

    Trae made some mistakes but his passing and selflessness kept the team in it and allowed for some extended runs. It would be a great idea to let Trae be the closer of our games. The way Trae shoots (He’s fearless), he should definitely be more of a gunner late in games to close them out. He was a little hesitant and gun shy at the end, but if he can fully embrace that role instead of chucking up shots in the first 3 quarters this team will be legit.

  18. lakerfan2413

    Y’all still think Trae is better than Luka?

  19. dan-danson

    can somebody post a screenshot of them beating the knicks like 500 to 0 on 2k to make me feel better

  20. plasticAstro

    I’m probably the biggest capela defender on the planet but those last two minutes were indefensible

  21. trofesh195

    Dre silenced the haters at least. And jalen kept up his good play. If our max player ever starts playing like a max player this team will be fire.

  22. blingera

    infuriating loss but i saw some improvements from last game. DJ and Dre were much more aggressive and didn’t settle as much. that’s it.

    jokes aside, start and play through JJ. if he can cook consistently then it could open up things for everyone else. Trae can still be high usage but JJ has to touch the ball every possession.

    Trae is 10000% in his head offensively. the bricks are one thing but he’s missing absolute bunnies. something is up. the more he bricks the more he feels like he has to make up for it and it snowballs from there. i will say he seemingly likes that lineup with Bogi and JJ. tbh he plays well with all the kids. idk figure it out Quin.

    Clint. i’m not doing this no more. bc he’s gonna come out and get like 15 & 20 next game and then shit himself the game right after. our bigs can’t be soft and have stone hands. i’m ready to trade him fr this time and live with what happens next. bricking a 2 hand dunk under the basket is the craziest shit i ever seen. i wish him and OO could switch bodies.

  23. HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa200

    And Trae is my favorite player, but he isn’t fucking Stephen Curry just because he shoots from half court.

    Either let him dominate the ball like he used too or trade him and have some bullshit equal offense.

    At least when he had the ball in his hands all the time, it was an easy lay-up, a dunk or a 3 majority of the time.

    The Hawks needed a wing scorer, like a Booker, Tatum, Lavine or Jaylen Brown – not another fucking PG.

    It seems like the Hawks FO let the criticism of Trae from r/NBA and RealGM get to their heads.

    The 2021-2022 Hawks had a top offense due to Trae’s elite scoring and passing combo combined with floor spacing from Gallo, Bogi and Huerter, plus the finishing of Collins and Capela.

    The offense fucking worked.

    It worked last year too, the Hawks finished top 7 even with Trae’s down year because that slow spread pick and roll shit – your turn my turn shit worked because AJ and Bogi were snipers, then Bey come along.

    Dejounte and Trae do too much standing around while the forwards play patty cake in the half court, yeah it looks pretty until you realize Trae and Dejounte man isn’t even paying attention to them. Then their off-ball movement is bullshit so they can catch and go into a pick and roll, when you might as well just let them bring the fucking ball up.

    Play AJ more. I much rather see AJ, JJ, Bogi and Bogi. I don’t even know what the hell is the point of Deandre Hunter.

  24. Knicks had insane ball movement and got hot from 3. Hartenstein is a beast. Trae shot bad. On to the next, not worried at all

  25. datasxienxe

    Watching a Dillon Brooks-Wembanyama jump ball has made my day slightly better

  26. Spirited-Research405

    At the game and it was bizarre. They didn’t play “Is you ready” by Migos which was disappointing. Music during the game was off. A speed painter as half time entertainment? Strange. Also tons of Knicks fans and they all took home the free Hawks shirts lolz.

  27. pk-pk-pk

    Coach Snyder has a ton of work to do with this team because so far they ain’t following his instructions.

  28. Chessh2036

    Fire Lloyd Pierce! Wait we did that.

    Fire Nate! Wait, did that also.

  29. Adventurous_Cap9072

    Brunson was fantastic. He is a terrific floor general and shooter. The Knicks did good in getting him. As for our guys, yeesh. Trae kept trying to cheat off of shooters even though they were killing us from three. Just stands around doing nothing on D and staring. They ended up with so many wide open threes just because of him. DJM is good but not good enough. He can’t take over a game. Jalen Johnson was the bright spot. Great in the fast break. That dunk over two of their guys WOW. Hunter had a good game. Will see him play well
    again in a month or so. Okongwu needs to be better.
