ok enough

[Calinks]

Crazy that Layman can't even get in this game. Talk about falling off.

[Merc_Porto]

Beasley when is bad, he's bad.
Hate this kinda of player...
Try to force everything to get his personal numbers.

Dude celebrates when he rebounds the ball over his teamates.

[wolves_89]

I think it's time for Nowell to start getting some run. When both Beasley and Edwards are playing so bad he deserves a chance, because he can't be worse than the guys getting minutes.

[UnFadeable21]

Turning it off. Can’t take this crap anymore

[Calinks]

Hawks scrubs have come to life, its over. Terrible outings for Jmac and Beasley. It happens, some guys will have off nights but there is no one to pick up the slack which is a huge problem. Badly needed Culver, Edwards, Jmac, to come through and provide some offense.

He can only catch and shoot. He’s a worse dribbler than Okogie

Dlo needs to close faster... The past few baskets have been scored on him.

[IceManBK1]

Every ream has better starting lineup better bench than us.. Until we get bigger and tougher and deeper. We're gonna get outmatched. Sigh we even get out coached.

[Jedzz]

Alright. No more excuses.

Losing two or three players, one starter, shouldn't reduce your team to non pros. These aren't pros. They aren't prepared to play like pros. The roster isn't constructed like a pro team. Why are they allowed to pretend they are NBA?

[Calinks]

Hawks have 25 turnovers and we are down 13, that is just crazy. Our offense is so anemic. Hawks should be getting blown out with how they played. We knew we would have defense problems but the fact that the offense is this bad, that's crazy.

[moonpie]

I don't understand what we're trying to accomplish by having Malik initiate the offense

[Lucamilo23]

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.

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.

You make a lot of great and fair argument, which I do not disagree with. But what has Saunders really showed? I understand he hasn’t had a great roster, as well as many injury concerns. But how long are we going to use that? Many teams deal with losses and show a lot more than we have.

As for Edward’s.. I can’t recall an individual that has had so much confidence on a trash shot. What is he shooting, 27% from 3 so far. Man smh.

We win if Beasley scored 20+

If the Wolves had anyone other than DLO that could make a shot they would have a really good chance to win.

Only one guy scored double figures so far. Thats bad

I'm not saying Ryan is blameless or not at fault. hE deserves some heat but I think Rosas deserves a lot more. I'm a Rosas fan and believer but the guy has really done Saunders a disservice. AIso put more blame on Rosas because Saunders seems to largely do what Rosas wants, he plays the style of ball Rosas wants. I think that's one reason why Rosas likes him, Ryan is a yes man in this way. All of this is an extension of Rosas' vision, the small ball, the roster construction, etc. Rosas isn't done and he has had some bad luck but this roster is all on him.

They're just trying to milk clock now

[moonpie]

Keep feeding Malik right now

[TheDominator273]

These refs have let so much contact at the rim go today, guys are ending up on the floor on both sides and no calls. Baffling to me.
