They say Middleton is inconsistent. That belongs to John Collins.

And Huerter, Bogdonovic, Lou, Capella, and on and on.  Why single one player out?

Defense and rebounding let us down tonight.

Our frontline has had trouble with big frontlines all season.  That's on of the reason why I always say that the Hawks should play big, instead of playing with 3 guards.

In this series, Gallo can play alongside Collins and Capela, mainly because of PJ Tucker.   Nate doesn't want to mess up his rotations, but we can't let Lopez and Portis dominate like this ever again.

Could have played the Gallo, Capela, and Collins front line.

John Collins is freakin worthless at times

Sometimes he just looks our of place on the floor and like he doesn’t belong.

Can Knight fight Portis? 

[Marvin24Williams]

55 combined for Lopez and Portis. That is unacceptable. Dreadful defense today. Dreadful.

[Spud2nique]

Bruno sighting!!!

[AHawks89]

Braves win, Hawks lose again. 

[Spud2nique]

The “other” Antentokoumpo is in. 

[BrazilianHawk]

Mays is MUCH better than Dunn.

Collins made 7 of his last 8 shots.  He just started off horribly.

As for his defense, he's not a center.

He disappears for long stretches at a time. In a game where you are without your superstar he's supposed to step up his game. Instead he shrinks. 

You really advocating paying him his max for this?

Bruno and Solo just aching to. Means they got at least a minute.

As a wannabe max player JC in a contract year should be showing more. That’s back to back weak games from JC.

Every single series it's your rallying cry and Nate just can't stick to that.

He can rock the poster shirt all he want but Embiid dominated him the whole series. I'm wondering when he ever gonna show up big without Trae?

[Iverwig]

How did Lopez end with only 7 boards? Seemed like he had 17 tonight. 

[Hawkmoor]

NOBODY put any effort into stopping Lopez.

Frustrating night. Let’s get it back on Saturday and even it up.

[Thomas]

After last game I sure as hell did not expect this in our paint.

[Marvin24Williams]

Pretty sure this is Brook's first 30 point game as a Buck. Embarrassing how he outworked this whole team
