Amazing! Toughest guy on the team! And he’s only entering his second season..the kid is the real deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin24Williams Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 It's a shame Turner and Bembry are redundant on offense. I was actually lovin the defense with both of them on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ill timed fouls and turn overs, along with the poor shooting nights are to much of a negative for me to deal with. If he could just stop the stupid shit when things are not going well for him; he would be a solid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gray Mule Posted October 17, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 Hawks have this kid named Vince Carter. In their 1st pre season game that they won, VC took them on his back and led them. Len got bad mouthed but I noticed that he set a screen for VC and the three was good! This was our "regular season looking" game and, regardless of who we were playing, everything looked pretty good. In the past, Hawk fans were lucky to have one pre season game on TV. Last night, for the nation to see, in the famous gardens, Atlanta came away with the win! Back to back in the pre season? Yep. Playing again tonight. Then, they all count. Rookies looked like rookies at times. Other times they shined like new money! Didn't seem to bother them to be on national TV in the garden. Huerter and Crabbe continue to miss games but apparently get in some practice time. Hopefully, they will be available before too long and not have too much rust on their game. Len is playing while not 100% healthy. Fernando is unable to relax and play yet. Still showing rookie jitters. Our center position will improve without doing anything. And, who knows what may happen and who might become available as we head to the trade deadline. If nothing happens, then next summer, free agents and the draft will still be there for us. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, him and VC must be in the rotation 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Vol4ever Posted October 17, 2019 Premium Member Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 I wish Pierce would quit trying to make Len and Collins 3 pt shooters. Collins is unstoppable in the paint. Making him a 3pt shooter takes him away from the offensive rebounds he has scored on in the past. Just makes no sense. Let Len stay underneath on defense and guard the basket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks heavier, had the hip injury so to me dosen'tlook as 'springy' all the time, is he fully recovered? Teams are really guarding against the Trae/JC PnR and if we keep getting nothing from the Center position it'll be a long season for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am and a lot, seems we had one play and teams have figured out how to defend it. I think he will not be near the 20/10 guy we were forecasting.

Maybe, "mildly concerned". And it's not that I think JC is going to regress, it's more that I'm just not sure I see how he's going to flourish without a 5 that can stretch the floor and provide spacing. I'm more concerned about how Len / Jones / Fernando will impact JC than anything else. I thought Len could step in and duplicate what Dedmon did last year but he's been garbage so far for spacing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be drafting a backup PG or keeping Turner if he doesn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got more talent around him now, so he's not going to get as many opportunities as he did last season. He'll get his when the opportunity arises. He had a few put backs and I believe a 3-pointer last night. I'd rather see him play stellar defense and get 8 rebs a night. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Len stay underneath on defense and guard the basket. He's not making them 3pt shooters. They just need to be effective shooting from 3 in their limited attepts to force defenses to adjust and see them as a reluable threat, ala Dedmon. John can't be unstoppable in the paint if Len and his man is in ther clogging it up. Trae can't get in the paint if both Collin's and Len's defenders are in the paint. The Trae/JC PnR/easy lob has been scouted so teams have been defending it really well. Reliable shooters on the wing creates more spacing needed for it to be effective. Len has struggled, Jones can't, Bruno is learning. We'll need to see more of this from John: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
