The fact this was only DH's 3rd time hitting the 30-point mark in 5+ seasons is really telling.

I kept saying let DH shoot.

We lost our best three point shooter.

We seem to prefer subpar 40% shooters from the field.

Quin must find four players to attempt 20 field goals per game and not six or seven. If you fail to realize this do your own reesech on successful teams.

Cleveland officials, sources say, only moved forward with the deal for Hunter when the Hawks dropped their original asking price of multiple first-round picks. If the draft compensation demands hadn’t dropped and if the ultimate trade framework didn’t help both Atlanta and Cleveland get under the tax threshold, it’s unlikely that the trade would have gotten done.

Georges Niang has been a nice addition. I want to see if he's in our future plans.

I hate the trade but Niang over performing as a Hawk has made the trade bearable.
