11/8 Hawks at Cavs 

Post#3 » by Jamaaliver » Wed Nov 9, 2016 1:39 am

Dennis and Kyrie are developing quite the rivalry...and I love watching it play out. Two guys at the same stage in their respective careers -- each with all the confidence in the world. Battling it out everytime they face off.

Having a devoted defensive center in the middle of the lane has made such a huge difference. Big men belong in the lane, dominating the painted area. Offensively and defensively.

Hawks up double digits in the 3rd. We gotta keep the pressure on these guys. This is the kind of victory free agents will remember next summer when we go recruiting. Just gotta pull it out.

Bazemore seems looser.

Muscala has emerged as an above avg reserve big man in Tiago's absence.

I'm hoping as the season goes on it gets better.

Bazemore showed exactly why we shelled out all that money for him this past offseason -- he brought the energy, hit some massive shots, and kept things loose.

Scroder made some stupid mistakes here and there but more than made up for it with a career high 28 points to go with 6 assists.

The stat of the night for me, however, is Tristan Thompson: 2 rebounds total. Dwight kept him completely in check on the glass, and gobbled up 17 rebounds. Howard is a difference maker against the Cavs, they aren't big enough to deal with him.

JR Smith 2-13fg... that has always been the key for the Hawks

So you're telling me that it is humanly possible to box out Tristan Thompson?

Won't say it was a great game with all the turnovers and bizarre sloppy play, great result though!
