1. Cute how people suddenly chime in against Trae when he has a bad game.  Good game?  Silence. 

Are you really surprised?

2. Give me 1 reason Blake is still in a blowout game considering his knees are made of Graham crackers right now?

3. We miss Reddish tonight.  Hope the haters are happy.

Poor shooting is common for Trae.

The trade with Dallas was worse than passing on Chris Paul.

Trae is hard to watch.

Not really it’s clear that there has been no adjustments by LP or this staff to get trae good looking shots.

teams are now all heavy trapping trae at the half court line and pierce only strategy is for trae to give the ball up instead of giving the ball up and working like hell to get it back to him

If LP was a GOOD coach he would know how to run Trae off of a bunch of screens but he's not smart enough to realize that

 

And Bruno is just getting straight up punked out there

Trae is really, really bad right now. Its fair to call a spade a spade. He hasn't had an actual good game since Denver.

He's also had large stretches of better play. I guess this is going to become Beware the Ides of November.

[Bonkers]

Absolutely embarrassing

 

I don't give a DAMN who is out. This is unacceptable

[Lurker]

Toronto might break the Clippers record tomorrow. That's how awful this team is right now. Rock Bottom until Collins comes back.

Raptors 154-Hawks 102 tomorrow.

LP isn't a good coach. Trae is getting frustrated out there. Game after game, it will start to wear down a player. I know i'm worn down watching this crap. 

Travis is a garbagecan. We needed a decent defensive minded center. Use Len as the backup. Use Bruno as the third stringer in limited minutes. DJONES SHOULD NOT BE STARTING OR SNIFFING THE COURT. His Defense is horrid. I can't stand it. I can't stand LP. I can't stand this team. And I can't stand the fact that Tony Resller has a billion dollars but he hasn't worked a day in his life. This society is a JOKE.

Actually, we're going to win tomorrow night.  Ya'll must not know how the NBA works.

Yes, we look like a** tonight.  But a victory will come tomorrow.  Vegas will be very happy with the Hawks on Saturday night.

[Plainview1981]

The Dallas trade looks worse and worse.

[bleachkit]

Well guess it wasn't out night. I don't know what the answers are. Hopefully we will look better when everyone is back but I have a feeling our problems run deeper than that.

I like pierce I really do but I was always worried about how he’d coach offense here. Yes defense is a big problem right now too but I believe it will be picked up again , right now the team isn’t playing with any energy or pride so you get yo ass whooped like this when the passion to even try is gone and defense is all about effort a lot of the times. (Not that skills don’t count on that end)

but I think the offense along with the game plan offensively  is so bad it’s leading to poor effort defensively.

Rev up the bus!

 

Go Hawks!

Seriously doubt it. It's going to be the reverse Lakers-Clippers deal. Glad I won't see that one. Two massive blowouts in a row.

They do. Of course the return of certain players probably make the score tiny bit closer though

Let’s not be silly. 

[BudBall]

Dallas trade is what it is. We have to support our guys now and not look to the past.

These other posters will not listen!!!

 

I've been saying this. LP needs to just be an assistant coach. He is in way over his head!!
