Its time for the Hawks to blow it up.

Teague sucks, Horford and Korver are regressing and Milsap is whatever

Facts are, we are an average team with a pretty damn good bench. Other then that, we are basically Charlotte with an excellent bench.

Yep. I like Schroeder and THJ moving foward. They both have a trait you can't teach and something this team has been lacking since the JJ/Jamal/Josh/Woody days...fearlessness. Both of those dudes are willing to take the big shot. I expect both to continue to improve.

The Hawks basically rotated 3 guys at C and PF tonight. Humphries could have definitely helped them tonight on the boards. That was a decent pickup looking at this team going down the stretch. Muscala probably won't even be on a NBA roster next year.

Teague don't suck
Horford isn't regressing and Korver is still making a positive impact in terms of impact.

We simply need to address three things this offseason.

1. A #1 option or potential one
2. Starting SF
3. A young in the paint scoring big.

I been saying Mike not a NBA player. He's a Euroleague player. That is where he belongs but he doesn't have the bulk to play with his lack of athleticism.

I might have to call my breh @Qohelet out on that on tomorrow's podcast. In one of the shows we did I brought up the poor rebounding and he made a good rebuttal, Bud likes to stretch the floor on offense which means guys won't crash the boards and will have to back on defense. I can't take up for the lack of defensive rebounding, that's a simple box your man out, grab the ball, outlet and go

The Hawks are absolutely horrible at this. You probably have high school basketball teams that box out better than the Hawks. And to be honest, Pero boxed out well last year :francis:
