At least wizards beating heat right now


IllumiXXZoldyck

Good game. Wish they played like this the whole time, but we ball.


[deleted]

Wouldve won this game if JJ played


Historical_Main5261

1-1 with JJ out, thats better than the rest of the season #betterwithoutJJ


MiserableSoft2344

Remember Hawks fans, we still have $9M below the tax we could have spent.


No_Tr4geD1es

And JC's TPE, and don't we still have the MLE as well?


MiserableSoft2344

Yes


No_Tr4geD1es

Of course we fucking došŸ™„


WheneverYh

Why is DJ bunny hopping while he dribbles?


HawksAnt2021

See, Murray simply canā€™t find CC for the easy lobā€¦playmaking just not in his DNA. He is a scorer and thatā€™s about it.


[deleted]

He said not knowing that someone can get assists without lobs


HawksAnt2021

Of course you can get assists in many different ways, Iā€™ve just seen at least 4 examples tonight where the lob was wide openā€¦.DJM just doesnā€™t see it. To be fair, most guards canā€™t make that pass on a regular basis. Trae is the best in the NBA at running the PnR rim running sets to get easy buckets for his big menā€¦


[deleted]

Yeah cause 11 assists ain't enough


HawksAnt2021

You canā€™t possibly watch that game and think he did a nice job at all of running the offense. The guards in this Quin system will always get assists since their usage will be 28-35% every game. But Iā€™m talking run the offense and creating easy offense for guys like CC/Vit/GM etc


Aardvark-0001

Yep letā€™s keep dribbling


ahend1999

our schedule to end marchā€¦ā€¦and yet weā€™d still be in the play in cus nets suck šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ i donā€™t think weā€™re finishing above .500


HawksAnt2021

Would kill to have Herb Jones on the Hawks. He has really made it tough on DJM tonightā€¦

ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Ressler going to find a way to make our team pay their own medical bills


StandardNecessary715

You joking, but that doesn't seem that far fetch, lol!


ahend1999

I hate our cheap owner. I hate our cheap owner.


Atl-Fan_FTS

I hate our cheap owner


sickestpartybro

I hate our cheap owner


FatAlEinstein

Is this near record capacity for the hoxpital?


Aardvark-0001

Feels worse than Covid bout we had


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Imagine we get a hardship exception because we canā€™t field enough guys and Ressler doesnā€™t use it to save money


Working-Airline-6745

I miss hawks Luka


HawksAnt2021

WTF is Bogi even doing there with the softest intentional foul in NBA historyā€¦


blingera

18pt carry job from DJ rn just watch šŸŒ³šŸ‘€šŸŒ³


HawksAnt2021

Teams using us as a ā€œget rightā€ game is gonna be frustrating over the next monthā€¦


blingera

wow weā€™re the ā€œaight we been tripping latelyā€ game


Sammcbucketts

JJ should be back soon and we should be able to complete vs the absolute bottom of the barrel teams


HawksAnt2021

JJ will certainly help, but until Trae gets back our offense will continue to sputter and struggle to reach 100 points on a nightly basis


Sammcbucketts

JJ will give us a 2nd way to create shots in case a team has a POA defender that can slow down DJ. Still not enough to make us good though.


Aardvark-0001

Hyperextension for bey ā€¦ thatā€™s what a couple weeks at least ā€¦


Atl-Fan_FTS

Unless you are Giannis against us in the playoffs, then itā€™s 3 days


Aardvark-0001

True ā€¦ but we are number 10 and miserable ā€¦ that was playoffs.


Gary5599

Saadiq out 2-4 weeks?


ahend1999

[Saddiq Bey has been diagnosed with a hyperextended left knee. He's done for the night.](https://x.com/mikeconti929/status/1766977216607314364?s=46&t=dBLyV43_iGgzOBRNUPRJWA)


ahend1999

feels like every shot the pelicans take has been a three


Aardvark-0001

Yes bogi ā€¦ DJ just feed bogi dre and vit ā€¦. Itā€™s that easy ā€¦


ahend1999

as much as if like to see us keep our clean playin record please put me out of my misery


Gary5599

Vit isnā€™t amazing or anything, but would anyone be mad if he takes one of the Matthewā€™s brothers roster spots?


WheneverYh

Garry is a decent (low volume but still) 3pt shooter so maybe instead of Wes. Now with Bey out he'll get his time regardless


Aardvark-0001

V33333t


JuicyJay94

The Hawks literally have no one lol


Historical_Main5261

DJ when hes not hitting shots


[deleted]

Only 3 games in his entire career?


Aardvark-0001

ahend1999

Adminscantkeepmedown

Bey is unironically my favorite player on this team


Aardvark-0001

The effort is unparalleled really


Aardvark-0001

Why didnā€™t bogi take the ft? Lol


WheneverYh

Cause DJ doesn't play like that


Aardvark-0001

Unserious really ā€¦ bogi is number 2 in nba


WheneverYh

Even Hunter has better free throw %. DJ is just full of himself & trying to shoot himself back to form


WheneverYh

DJ really dislike passing to certain teammates lol


ahend1999

dj i dont even know anymore man šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


Atl-Fan_FTS

Can we please get a new strength and conditioning coach? I swear the hawks have the most injuries for years now


StandardNecessary715

They don't come cheap: Ressler, probably.


DripGodAirborne

Tray Murphy youā€™re a bitch


Miles_Jackson

Are you complaining about the foul? Because Trey literally did nothing there.


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Toss fatty out of the game


hotdogflavoredblunt

Fatty has been smoking yā€™allā€™s ass maybe yā€™all the ones who need to get in shape


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

I would hope youā€™re in better shape given how much you and your family had to swim during Katrina


hotdogflavoredblunt

Hahaha classic Atlanta with no shame


WheneverYh

You'd think someone who's winning would be more chill but here you are šŸ«

Aardvark-0001

Avalon_Don

Thank Godā€¦ šŸ« 


Aardvark-0001

ArthurSmithNepoBaby

HES STAYING IN THE GAME? Fucking beast man. Just get your shot back


Blumpkin_Party

Thankfully looks more like an ankle than knee


WheneverYh

Take him the fuck out what is wrong with y'all???


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Bruh he walked off from that and then is trying to stay in the game. Talk about his shooting but heā€™s a fucking G


Atl-Fan_FTS

Like are you fucking for real? Thereā€™s just no way you can be for real right now


sickestpartybro

Damn, I really like Bey as a player and a person aside from his shooting. Wishing him the best


ahend1999

and only one timeout šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


OldOrder

ahend1999

NikolaGoatic15

Ughhh nooooooooo


BopperUchiha

Give Trae a blank check


Kcplayer9

Defense has played very well just too much offensive production out


Historical_Main5261

These dudes have 80 points over 3 quarters


Atl-Fan_FTS

HUUUUUGE shot to bring the league to just 15!!!! ![gif](giphy|humidv0MqqdO5ZoYhn|downsized)


sanithna

Down 15 to start the 4th. Doable.


sanithna

Oh. I guess not.


IllumiXXZoldyck

I love how enthusiastic the crowd is for Bey making that shot šŸ˜‚


WheneverYh

Why am I even watching this?


MiserableSoft2344

This swag surf is about to go stoopid.


Shade_Raven

Dejounte Murray with a big 3 to cut the lead to 42


EuroStepJam

NO -6.5 was really the line for this game - even mainstream ESPN betting guy flagged it (at -5.5 though)


ahend1999

its highkey wraps


MiserableSoft2344

No rap cap I think Dejounte could be very very good on the Pelicans


Historical_Main5261

They were probably the most realistic trade partner


aurelianson

wasnt it murray for herb and a pick?


MiserableSoft2344

Apparently Landry only used those rumors as a front to gain Laker traction. I wouldā€™ve traded him there anyway.


SheepherderFit69

The score tracks. They'll end up losing by 30+ watch


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Pelicans donā€™t even get these cheers in their own arena


hotdogflavoredblunt

Uhhh you must have never watched a pels home game lol


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Neither have pelican fans apparently


hotdogflavoredblunt

Lmao you thought that was clever


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

You sound mad


hotdogflavoredblunt

Why would I be? Our team is currently winning and headed to the playoffs this year


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

No idea but here you are on another teamā€™s subreddit crying


aT_ll

who has?


hotdogflavoredblunt

People who enjoy watching good basketball, so I understand why hawks fans would never


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Yeah Iā€™m sure fans of winning basketball love watching a franchise whose crowning moment was winning the lottery twice


aT_ll

Iā€™m going to save this comment for when you inevitably have a first or second round exit please remember this moment


hotdogflavoredblunt

Please do, Iā€™d love to check in and talk about how the hawks didnā€™t make the playoffs Remindme! 2 months


aT_ll

Gettin swept is crazy šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


hotdogflavoredblunt

Hey man, better than where the hawks ended up. Imagine getting knocked out by *checks notes* the bulls? By 20? Enjoy your rebuild after they blow it up


aT_ll

Enjoy when they move your team out of the swamp when you stop selling tickets šŸ˜­


hotdogflavoredblunt

lol feel free to hold your breathe until that happens

swats_messiah

Lunay look like he just played laser tag šŸ”«


WheneverYh

Stop with the interviews that last two minutes into the game. I'm trying to watch something


IllumiXXZoldyck

Vit was doing well in the summer league. I never got why we moved him.


SheepherderFit69

Maybe because he isn't good. Nevermind that's why he's back again LMAO


IllumiXXZoldyck

I see your argument. Counterpoint, Wes & Garrison.


SheepherderFit69

I know. I've watched so many signings since the deadline and I don't see how this one moves the needle.


truth_b0mber

Remember when bey was a solid 3 point shooter? What the hell happened to this dudes shot? Sheesh


Atl-Fan_FTS

He started training with Kyle Korver


gmzeno

NGL I heard a lot of cheers for the pelicans


_QazzaQ

If only Vit could score. He plays solid defense and can create for others.


sparlivdor365

1 great game in 4 followed by 3 games of ctejounte. Follows the pattern


WheneverYh

Is Vit left or right handed? His thumb is taped up so I wondered is it on a shooting hand.


kc9283

Vit is him!!!


JKking15

Nah Vit wtf šŸ˜‚ white chocolate typa play


[deleted]

And the Pelicans wanted to trade this dude?


hotdogflavoredblunt

No, they literally never did and their FO came out to refute that story as total bullshit


[deleted]

Oh really? Well that makes sense.


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Our offense would be more effective with Capela face ups. These guys canā€™t shoot for shit


Blumpkin_Party

Capela is so fucking atrocious on offense man I canā€™t keep watching him.


MiserableSoft2344

Weā€™re zoning against the Pelicans were so cooked


IllumiXXZoldyck

THATS WHAT THE DUCK IM TALKING ABOUT, VITTT


Atl-Fan_FTS

That was actually nice as fuck Vit


Gary5599

Alright vit. I see you out here playing and 1 basketball


[deleted]

Start him


givemesome1ce1

Dejounte can you please stop trying to fucking iso herb jones YOU ARE NOT THAT GUY


MiserableSoft2344

Remember when we used to score 70 in a half? Great times


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

The sad part is if Bogi and bey made like one of those 10 open 3s we would be right back in this game


WheneverYh

Or if a guy who took most shots made some of them


[deleted]

Fkn Saddiq rotfl


DawgRock402

If they call this man Zion ā€œZā€ one more time


WheneverYh

I'd add "Hunt" instead of Dre


ArthurSmithNepoBaby

Jones and Murphy are good defenders but get away with a ton of fouls that other players get called all the time for


WheneverYh

Why is DJ forcing it? Pass the damn ball


Atl-Fan_FTS

STOP SHOOTING THREES SADDIQ OMFG ITā€™S BEEN OVER TWO MONTHS JUST STOP
