There’s no way we watched the same Hawks season if you came away from this season and think everything is ok here

Ima enjoy tonight’s win but SIGNIFICANT changes are needed here breh
I don't think everything is ok. There are fit issues now.

The start of the 3rd quarter was the perfect example of that with Collins in there. Lead dwindled and as soon as we subbed OO and JJ the spacing helped stabilize things.

That is a credit to the coaching. Spo even mentioned he was worried bout our offensive changes prior to the game.

We not winning it all but I like what Quin is doing for us.

No reason for this play/effort to not be sustainable because that's all it was, EFFORT!

I look forward to Clint hoeing Horford on the glass this series. Maybe they were saving their energy for the playoffs :yeshrug:


Edit: Also, Quin definitely made a change we hadn't seen before having them crash the glass the way they were doing. Those extra possessions was huge. I see no reason they can't do that against Boston.

Big O and JJ coming on strong since Quin got here has been huge for us. Big O wasn't playing like this when Nate was here and Jalen was barely getting burn, now he's an X-factor with his combination of speed, size, athleticism, and skillset.

Congrats on the win bird brains. But Trae ain't it. His turnovers for a point guard a killer

Your right Quin coached his ass off tonight

If we can get this kind of effort, the BOS series could be fun, but I fully expect a loss in 5

If we miraculously beat Boston that would be a chip for me. Get to shut Bill Simmons all those dudes at the ringer up. Then we get to send Horford home too. :pacspit:

No reason our frontcourt can't crash the glass and dominate the paint against them. Robert Williams is the only big they have that can provide some resistance if Capela/Big O/JC/Bey/JJ/Dre etc. playing with that type of energy.

Boston is largely a perimeter-oriented team. We get physical towards them and run them off the 3-point line shyt can get interesting. We all know how Horford will fold to physical play, and we owe that nikka one anyway.

I honestly was expecting Kevin Love to make like 10 threes on us last night. I have nightmares of the Cavs cooking us .... like TT killing Horford in the paint

Pay byke time mr. Clapaveli
