Yess It's finally time, Ik its only the preseason but finally we get to enjoy some basketball after a long seemingly endless wait.

Can't wait I think the starters will only play 20 minutes,Im just happy to see the Hawks play again

Apparently it's acceptable for D.J. Augustin to dribble the ball over his head multiple times.

I like what i see from Josh early, looks like he's not trying to take the outside shot anymore.

Why is Teague already getting benched for... Donald Sloan? Who the hell is that?

I think LD is interviewing players for the backup PG role and seeing their strengths and weaknesses, but I could be wrong

^^ and so it begins, lol

I missed the beginning of the game. Looks like Joe is passing well nothing significant otherwise other than Teague getting 2 early fouls

If T-Mac is all we have to throw out there as the 6th man, the Hawks are in big trouble. Maybe Kirk will fill that roll.

Nice first shot from wannamaker, I have hopes for this kid

LOL at this bench offense.

Sy is a player.

Color me impressed.

Pape is not a PG, but I like the way he goes to the rack sometimes. Benson is just out there can't even get a rebound. This bench is garbage early opinion.

Vladimir Radmanovic has three early fouls and Tracy McGrady has two.

Vlad is the type of player I would leave on the 3-point line on offense. I see no use for him to be anywhere else.

+1

Teague looks good at on-ball defense but he is not running DJ off the line and he is missing layups.

How many times will Marvin look at the defense and give the ball to Josh?

Sad Benson > Horford hahaha jk but give him 10 lbs and the potential is there .

Even with 10 more lbs Hes obviously a PF .
