The Fresh Prince takes on King James:
The Hawks have beaten Cleveland three of the last four games dating to last season, and Lue said Schroder is a major reason why.
The Hawks, meanwhile, benched their best player in the fourth quarter of their last game -- a 111-107 loss to the New York Knicks. Dennis Schroder, the team's leading scorer (20.4 ppg) who scored 27 points in Atlanta's last game against Cleveland, sat out the final 8:14 of the Knicks game.

Can we extend our winning streak in Cleveland to 4 games? We always play these guys tough but with no John Collins I don't see how we stand a chance.

Have they ruled him out? Last i heard he was possible for this game. Although I think Thompson is supposed to be coming back too.
Let the 3s fly, get the ball out of lebron's hands.

Collins has actually been assigned to the G League today for a rehab stint.

Think Dennis is still in the doghouse and won't play tonight? Or am I missing something with this move?

Makes no sense with Taylor, Delaney, Bembry, Baze, Marco all available. Unless there is a trade in development and they want to start getting him acclimated to the nba but what difference would that make anyway.

When Dennis and Isaiah were out injured he was called up. So if Dennis is not playing it makes some sense cuz #DelaneySucks.
Why waste a GLeague day? Something smells.

Remember? The last time we faced the Cavs, King James had to guard Dennis to stop him from scoring.
Regardless of how good they are or how bad we are, it's always a great game. Can tonight's contest
be any different?
Expect Cleveland to shoot forty eleven times from behind the arch and "The King" to run over someone
which cannot possibly be anything but a block on whichever Hawk he elects to run over.
GO ATL HAWKS !!

Just bringing an extra body in, since we waived Brussino, and we still have a lot of guys out due to injuries.

I'm sticking to my philosophy of completely lose out on the road and win games at home. Reward the fans that go out of their way to watch this dumpster fire while also tanking for a better future. I'm satisfied with any and every loss on the road.
