Hunter airballs a shot from 2 feet on one end then gives up a wide open three on the other.

They still play sorry ass defense,  not getting out of the 10 seed.

 

They miss Collins tremendously on defense.  And that's saying a lot because he isn't a great defender . . only a decent one.

He's the worst rotation player by a mile. Meanwhile we are sorely missing Collins. Remember how there was dozens of post and entire thread shitting on Collins that one bad game he had when Trae was hurt. Not a peep after Trae had his worst game of the year without Collins. Funny that.

[SalvorMallow]

Good D!!

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Very satisfied with Trae's effort and decision making tonight.   The rest of the team needs to match him.

Bogd was pissed to be taken out, clearly.  Yikes 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

See how Gallo's length affected Siakam's 3?

Nice comeback. Just keep the intensity up.

I'm there with you. Gallo at the three has been something I've been wanting to see more off since we acquired him, especially next to Collins.

Yeah, that's not encouraging at all.

He's less of a defensive liability at the three than he is at the four, and it helps our rebounding.

He should be. Bogi should be playing 2x the minutes that Hunter is playing.

[Atlantaholic]

What is Nate doing lol? Bogi is cooking and you take him out for 1 minute have him wrap his knee and come back in. Just leave him in you doofus.

He's going to get plenty of time if he keeps playing like he's playing. No need to disrupt team chemistry.

Glad to see Trae playing like Trae.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Trae must've read Diesel's thread this morning.

He took 9 shots before he attempted his first 3.

[hawkman]

Spam the middy Trae. He doesn't use it enough.

[kg01]

Trae in his bagg tonite. 

[Diesel]

These Refs are ass. 

[SalvorMallow]

Huerter flopping for a foul instead of grabbing the rebound. Charmin soft ass velvet.
