First timeout streak continues. All they doing is taking it soft to the rim.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

When you're afraid of contact, you're soft at the basket.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

At a certain point you have to start looking at the coaching staff as a reason we fall behind in almost every game this coaching staff has been here.
not strong, only aggresive cuz the power ain't directed/ that's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive

Watching Raptors always raises my stress and anxiety. I try to avoid the team when I’m having a rough time lol.

Literally the difference so far... Hawks have been strong enough to fight through it while we're bitching about the same non calls.

They’re barely non-calls. These guys just playing soft.

I hate that IQ gets that call. Like why is it a foul? IQ jumps into him with no real intention.

Game would improve so much to clean that up

Of course but why are we never prepared to come out with intensity?? We always have to play ourselves into the game.

sports is so utterly insignificant compared to the actual important things going on in the world. these things are a distraction in the end. a welcome respite, but it's good to have perspective

I got a feeling Scottie might be a tough guy to like.

Great play there by IQ

Does he? I don’t notice it. I think he’s just speaking the truth. Barnes has too many mental lapses.
