I don't care about his stats, I don't like Dipo is running the offense, it just doesn't flow right. That's with the full cast/closing lineup


Read on Twitter


I know you didn’t like Herro off the ball but the starters with Dipo in place at point were VERY effective today. I agree with you that Herro on ball can help in spurts and it shouldn’t just be all Dipo running the show but Herro shoots because off the ball on the catch this season I believe so maybe that’s why they’re trying this out

I’m not convinced this years Mia team is much better than Atl.

If hypothetically the two teams met again in the playoffs, it would be a much more difficult task this year for Mia

Them adding Murray definitely helps them and they’re big long and athletic but I personally wouldn’t be too worried. They almost lost a game they shot a ridiculous percentage from the court even with some very questionable coaching on our side and Herro clearly being rusty. I could be wrong.

None of Atlanta, New York, Philly will beat us in a seven game series with proper planning. However this current squad isnt going to win against a healthy Milwaukee, Boston. I think a series against Cleveland and Brooklyn could go either way and it would be a tight series.

I agree and I think the moves to put us over the top are out there if Pat and the FO aren’t being stubborn about picks at the deadline

They were consistently getting better looks than Mia. Their off ball movement, screen setting and correct decision making were setting up high quality shot attempts on a regular basis. And because they were able to establish consistent half court offense, their guys got into a comfortable shooting rhythm.

Conversely Mia seemingly has got to consistently work much harder to get mediocre looks in their half court offense. And to make matters worse, their shooters arent nearly as good as they were last year.

At this point in time, I certainly don’t take Atl for granted, not with this Mia squad

Seems like it’s time for Pat to show us he has something left in the tank

Oh Pat has a lot left in the tank, and that’s lots of poop and urine he can no longer retain.

I can't believe the Hawks cooked us.

I guess they owed us one.

This team either needs to get dismantled or upgraded before the trade deadline. Status quo will just bring failure.

This is our playoff line up, no Lowry, no Duncan and the Hawks just had their way with us. I can understand losing if Duncan and Lowry played huge minutes but they didnt even see the court. We had our A-team out there and they shredded our defense like a hot knife through butter. It's not time to panic but just using common sense this team needs a shakeup, a trade, something.

Relax, it was MLK day and Atlanta wasn't going to lose. MLK was all about Georgia.

Emperor Silver is happy.
