Great Q2.
Please come out this way in Q3.

Derrick, Rob, JT awesome Q2.
Brog missing 3s but fantastic all around game - almost a trip dub already.

You trust Rob's health?

Do agree here, I've felt he's a bit too flippy at the rim (won't go so far as to say flippant).

Let’s see if they can keep this intensity in 2nd half!

Playing him off the bench might be the preservative we need.

Stats are funny,

John Collins is leading the Hawks in +/- with +6 in 14 minutes and I don’t even remember him playing :lol:

Also, after that rough first few minutes, I think Jaylen has played REALLY good, don’t care about the shooting or box score.

am I crazy to think ppl are forgetting Al? i thought he was good on d. missed shots but i haven't seen any of their bigs son him. collins hit a hook but it bounced in and wasn't bad d per se.

I already made posts about White and Rob, but you’re right I forgot about my Al.

He’s so good, and even him just being out there makes our offense that much harder to guard. And we all know what he does defensively.

Smart has been really good too, people just cry about missed threes.

He’s been known to avoid contact, that’s why you see a ton of euro stepping from him. I’m fine with it, just as long as he’s making shots and avoiding injury

If he gets hurt again this postseason would you feel the same? I agree though white and rob are so crucial to our success but white is actually reliable so its a no brainer to keep him or at least try.

tatum can drag his nutts all over inside the paint and people will say he went in soft. why does it matter how he does it if it works?? he could plie into the paint and if he hits the bucket I'm good!

It's definitely something Brad needs to address. Easy to be hyped about Rob being healthy now buuuuuut...

He’s taken 23 shots in the paint through 6 quarters lol, that’s Giannis numbers. He’s just able to finish around the Hawks defenders, less contact for a series is good to me.

Grant nah. PP nah. I think PP needs a Trade, he's a very good player.

Grant will be used in the next round.

Hauser is a good fit for this series.
