Instead of best 3P% I should have said name any or all the Hawks you expect to be traded by the deadline. I think my more spicy prediction would be around AJ and Bogi. I think he finds his way by mid November, shooting closer to 40% from 3 and we become dangerous. I think the number 1 beneficiary of us switching from Collins to JJ/Bey will be Bogi. Bogi will need to handle the ball less with the emergence of the youngins, improved outside shooting from OO, midrange from Clint (okay I can dream). Bogi needs attention off of him to be most effective. Every time one of the other pieces adds something to their game that stops teams from giving help on Bogi, his percentages improve. Bogi just needs space to operate. Collins+CC on the floor at the same time was a space killer. Edited October 25, 2023 by thecampster 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theheroatl Posted October 25, 2023 Report Share Posted October 25, 2023 1. Hawks record: 52-30 2. Name the starting PF and C at season's end: JJ and OO (Chemistry is there) 3.

Team leader in 3P% (Minimum 50 FGM): Bogi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swanlee Posted October 25, 2023 Report Share Posted October 25, 2023 I think 50-32 is realistic. But with any pro team in tne Atl it could get bad or we coukd dominate the season and then get swept in the first rd. Hoping for at least a fun season like the ECF run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should've been more controversial and said that Siakam and Okongwu would be out frontcourt at the end of the year. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think by virtue of Quin's coaching alone we will improve our shooting. And I'm just talking about the words he's having with the team. That says nothing of a whole new system that doesn't rely on midrange/plays at the rim. That said, I still believe we will only be marginally improved because the only reliable shooter we have is constantly having to create his own shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My record prediction was based on the Hawks winning the IST, so that prediction is officially busted. Win total is still looking better than a lot of other folks predicting 50+ wins, and one totally reasonable prediction of over 60 wins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member shakes Posted November 29, 2023 Premium Member Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 the predictions in this thread are equal parts hilarious and sad. This team is garbage. We'll be lucky to be .500 this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
