Missed most of this and after a rewatch, Trae and DJM can't handle much physicality. They need another player that can apply constant pressure to the rim. Trae's the only one but he's foul fishing and the refs aren't biting rn.
Collins can't get pass a 35 year Love and got outplayed. CC is still a good productive player but he's wearing down. At minimum they should look to load manage him rest of the way.
In the 4th they traded about 4-5 buckets, and the Hawks needed defensive stops during that stretch. They got out off rebounded, they can't afford that. I'm pretty sure the record is almost non wins when they lose that particular rebound battle.
