Give me Capela, Hunter and Collins for Towns...

I would be all over that deal. And very confortable to pay big money to Collins too next season.

These runs every game are death. We have given up 3 10 point runs this game. We cant get paint buckets to save our life. We have no way of getting rim shots if its not in transition.

Just watch the team, big disadvantage when we struggle to get to the pain on every play, get blocked, walled up etc. HAkws get alley-oops and put backs. We are taking long twos and bricking threes. No penetration from us, no inside game.

This team is hard to watch. Terrible all around. Add the fact of culver and edwards looking like garbage, as well as the complete incompetence of Saunders. Oouch. Maybe edwards will end up being okay, but it hurts every time I see him chucking in-efficiently and melo having an impact on the game. Doesn’t look good for us.

Should've drafted Toppin or Wiseman..Rosas need to redeem himself and get Aaron Gordon or Julius Randle.

Going to need one hell of a 4th quarter to win this one. Atlanta is playing like crap and they don't want to win this game. That said we have been so bad we can't take it. Going to need some really good play for 1 quarter and you could steal this, Hawks are sloppy as hell today.

I think Rosas should be taking a lot of the heat Saunders is. This team has talent but its very hard to win the roster as currently constructed. Without KAt you have no aswer for traditional 4/5 opponents. Too many young players in important roles and if Edwards does wind up being a bust, that's on Rosas too. I know he isn't done making this team and he will make more moves but you have to give your squad/coach a fighting chance. The team right now is just not constructed very well. Some major gaps.

This team really needs one of Beasley/Edwards to be able to make shots. There just is not enough offense when those guys suck and Towns is out.

Hawks have been blowing this game big time. They have controlled the paint easily, made us take bad shots, have turned us over but they are playing so sloppily. They are making mistakes all over the place we have just been so bad, we can't capitalize.

Can't put anyone else on the floor to replace these cold shooters either, because can't break the 10 man rule.

Capella is basically single handily winning this game lol. Locking down the rim and getting garbage buckets.
