 @kg01 is right.

You had me here.

Knew it was coming. 

Tony T'd him up.

With no Lebron, this would be the type of game the refs give Trae another tech and eject him, to "even" the game up.

Nate could have gotten ahead of that.

[kg01]

I hate when refs compound their mistakes and misses by giving these kinds of techs.  You know YOU fkd up so the player is justified in being upset.  But yo t him anyway?

Bull.

And IDGAF if he has a short fuse.  It ain't about HIM!

[hawkman]

WHAT??? 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Oh my goodness.   

I need to see the replay on that Trae travel.

 

[kg01]

Refs have taken control.

[LucastheThird]

Tony Brothers has gotten into Trae's head

[JeffS17]

Refs taking over another one.  Is it just me or have these last two games been HEAVILY officiated?  Like, the Celtics game had 35 fouls around the start of the fourth quarter.  We already have 23 in what has not even been a very physical game

Trae needs to be very careful for the rest of this game. You can't beat the refs. I'll just leave it at that.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Now that's BS.

[terrell]

Lakers came to play today. Hawks better wake up.. smh

He's going to get tossed.

I hope the rest of the team can pick up the slack.   If he doesn't get obvious calls, Trae will bark, and Brothers will blow that whistle.

Fixed.

[Carmine]

Clints slow as molesses @ss can't keep up with Lakers

[Atlantaholic]

I don't give a f right now about the terrible refs. We are playing into their hands. Run the offense, stop this hero ball pressing, play defense. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Hawks shooting 57% FG

Lakers shooting 71% FG - and 46% 3FG

 

Where's Chole at?

 

[Dnice]

Atlanta is going to blow this. 

[JeffS17]

Anyone in the league but Trae gets that call lol... AD got caught in the air, that's not what the rule changes were fixing... we haven't played good defense but neither have the Lakers.  Difference in this game is their shooters making shots and ours have not been (outside of JC who has had a nice game).
