Small in the middle for Atlanta. Magic have to attack here.

This hawks team is simply too young for our team. Outmuscled. Reminds me so much how we play vs Knicks. Lol

Offense has cooled off a bit, partly due to Cole's chucking. But if we keep up the defensive intensity we will be fine.

I’m so confused with what coach is trying to do with Paolo and Franz’s minutes.

It’s only the first half. They’ll adjust and give us a massive headache in the second half.

That ball movement we've talked about ..... made it into the play-in.... and hopefully through the rest of the playoffs.

He is gonna be good. But will never be a superstar. He reminds a bit of danilo gallinari.

Paolo playing a pretty perfect all-round game even if the shots haven’t been falling. His passing has been a revelation tonight. He’s playing so measured and controlled in a high stakes game. He’s legit.

He’s a rookie. It’s his first high pressure game. He’ll be alright once he gets more experience. I’ll chalk it up to nerves.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he is better in the second half.

Here we go... Not focusing to close out the half. Exactly what happen in game 7 vs Cleveland last year.
