@PlayoffHawk Except now they play an entirely different style of basketball. The style that is very reminiscent of championship basketball. No more iso centric ball.
Hawks actually getting love. Because people knew in past runs that they didn't have consistent defense. We have consistent defense and EVERYBODY can give you buckets now. When the starters come out you don't get a relief from not having to play hard. You might have to play harder
"Who the hell was thinking about the Atlanta Hawks? ... The third-best record in the entire NBA since the All-Star break."
—@stephenasmith on the Hawks' turnaround this season 👀
Well well well. I called it 2 years ago we needed to make that trade. I'm fully vindicated in my beliefs that his time in Atlanta was done. The shine wore off and the rust started showing. We're on the up more than ever now.
Trade Trae, we need to start a new era. We've had one good year. Fringe playoffs since only in cause of the play-in. It's not working. I'm tired of watching highlight tapes, I want to watch wins.
Hawks looked decent last night. Clearly tried getting Porzingis going early. Trae's shot looked money. Luke is going to be amazing. NAW and Dyson are going to be hell for opposing teams. Few holes here and there but I think we'll be good.
I could see the hawks competing for a chip this year. Looking at this roster on paper, it is going to be hard to beat this team. So many weapons, different dynamics of lineups. Just have to stay healthy.
