Whats up with Trae's shooting? 3/12 again.

We played like strait garbage. Good god. That was absolutely brutal.

At least 3 were ill-advised shots and his floater was not working.

He's streaky.

Even the Hawks are trying to get @KB21 to come out of hiding by playing like that!

Shouldve went with Dorsey, since no one else could score...Gave him a try....Is he in the doghouse?

I'd prefer him over Lin.

Honestly I believe that’s a great thing!

not trying to give Young, Prince, or the rest of these young hawks any excuses but I believe the time off between last weeks games really got them off rhythm offensively especially Trae!

i think (we will find out) that Trae will be more in tune once he gets some games closer together.

(LAST WEEK) 2 off days in a row then another 2 off days in a row  to me just isn’t benefiting this young team but making them rusty with that much time off even though it may not sound like a lot.

Young team.There  will be nights like this. Learn and get ready for the Sixers on Monday!

Huh?

They played Oct 19th, 21st, 24th and 27th - L, W, W, L.

I'm not seeing anything here that's concerning with that schedule.  They were probably still partying from their 1st home win.

Last comment for me (maybe).....

i thought Prince had some good penetration plays to the goal where he had some EASY kick outs but failed to do so and took that contested layup instead.

the whole offense struggled but I thought that there were times where prince could have made that extra pass to get a teammate rolling.

[bleachkit]

Think Dorsey should have got some minutes tonight.

Yeah, Prince should just stand in the corner and shoot 3's. Thats it...He and Baze drive me crazy as ballhandlers....

Here's the problem...... teams are doubling Trae hard off the PnR someone else has to handle the ball and run some offensive sets.

Hopefully we find that guy in the 2019 draft, because Prince aint it. lol.

I’m ok with Prince handling the ball but He could have made some more plays as I believe he saw who was open during those drives  (at least they looked open on TV).

bazemore on the other hand I’m very skeptical! This past Wednesday vs the Mavs bazemore was great at handling the ball but those games where it seems like baze can actually dribble are rare! Still like baze though.

This. But then again....nobody could hit an open shot in this game.
