Damn...EVERYBODY is writing the Hawks off in this series and has basically penciled the Knicks in to move on. The hate for Trae/Atlanta is REAL :whew:. We might have to turn back the clock and grab that ammonia to wake these nikkas up again:wow:

This shyt gonna be so fukking satisfying seeing Ice Trae and the Hawks put on for the city while Nate McMillan shows what he can do in the playoffs with talent :ohlawd:

This nikka Steven A legit said we don’t have playoff experience :gucci:

Capela has been the WCF multiple times with the Rockets, Lou been in the playoffs 9 times, Gallo has playoff experience, Solo has been to the playoffs and was just in the Finals last year with Miami, Tony Snell has playoff experience. Who have playoff experience on the Knicks outside of Rose/Gibson?


The more they write us off the more confidence I’m getting we taking this shyt in 5.

Biggest concern I have is who is guarding Randle. We gotta get the ball out of his hands as often as possible. Let Elf on the Shelf and D Rose beat you. I don’t fear anyone else on that roster:yeshrug:

Trap him and force him to beat us out of the double team. He’s never faced the defensive pressure teams deploy towards Trae every game. The few times I’ve seen him doubled this season he hasn’t shown the ability to handle that pressure well. He usually turns the ball over.

I say we start out with Dre/Collins on him and if that isn’t effective. Bring the double every time he touch the ball and force him to make quick and accurate passes. Same way we shut down Zack in the second half of that Bulls game when he went off in the first half.

Hawks have several long (nh) and quick players they can throw double teams at players with so I definitely expect to see that.

Tbh I'm more concerned about bullock and Burks shooting kick out 3s. Burks has been one of there best players during the last 5 games

Maybe but dude averaged 37 a night vs us this season vs a variety of different looks. I’m hoping we can slow him down by getting the ball out of his hands early but I fully expect him to drop 30 a night in this series

Before we get into the playoff talk I want to just salute these guys for a hellavu season. For us Hawks brehs whove been posting for years @Rickdogg44 @Steezy @#1pick @FreshFromATL @The_Sheff @The ADD @Motife43 it feels like it’s been a while since the Hawks inspired this kind of excitement and confidence in them. Division champs and #5 seed, let’s go
Thanks breh! I am proud of the boys and proud of our fanbase. Travis did it! RIP @charmander, we miss you.

Can't believe how many casuals are sleeping on us and really believe the Knicks will take this. Knicks are a good regular season team but who can they really give the ball to and expect to create shyt out of nothing when things slow down as it does during the playoffs? We've got Bogdon and Trae who can do that at a high level. Capela will handle Randle and while I love D Rose this ain't 2011.
