How the Hawks did how the hell did he make the Olympics?:dwillhuh:NO ONE else wanted to coach?:dead:
That a$$hole is the reason Trae originally wasn't selected for the team last year. He will forever be hated in Atlanta:pacspit:

And btw Popovich was on his high horse criticizing the Hawks for giving LP the boot. fukk both of em

I think this is always a a problem when you just throw a bunch of offensively talented guys together who don't have chemistry

Guys just end up taking turns taking shots as opposed to having a specific guy like Mills to go to and having guys know what to run

Canada ran into this too and that's how Satoransky was able to sauce them up and eliminate them with clutch shots while Canada went through long cold streaks just hoping a 3 would drop for someone

yeah its like a talented college team full of freshmen going against a senior team that plays "fundamental basketball" they run plays, don't take bad shots, play zone, clog the inside and make you settle for jumpers

As I said before: bad roster. No wing defenders, no true big men, no playmakers and a bunch of one-on-one hero ball guys. There is also zero dog (defensively) in any of these guys save for Draymond and KD. You’ve never heard of Dame Lillard getting a key stop when you need one.

They need a true point guard and leader but neither one of those are coming so :yeshrug: gonna have to hope their talent can win out

I’m lowkey wondering how they came up with this roster. Cause him & Colangelo were on some questionable shyt in 2019, picking Mason Plumlee over Bam, Derrick White over Trae & Fox :patrice:
