Our beloved Hawks have won the previous two meetings.

Phoenix has dropped six straight games.

No Millsap tonight, attending his grandfather's funeral.

This is one of those cases where sports is outweighed by life. Prayers for Millsap, in what must be a difficult situation.

I think Phoenix has a depleted rotation, so we'll see how this goes.

If Horford gets the start at PF, I fully expect him to dominate.

Schroder is in, and 9-0 run for Suns.

This guy is probably the worst player I have ever seen.

Looking like a big time joke, contenders, they are not.

Chandler may have 30 boards at night's end

Pathetic. 17 rebounds for Chandler in the first half LOLOLOL

Teague is AWFUL. Wtf happened to his offense? He used to be so money on his floaters, I just saw him clank and air ball 2 in a row....

This team is so hopeless without Millsap. If Paul's first priority is contending, then he made the wrong choice re-signing.

And we can barely keep up with the Hornets, Knicks, Bucks and Kings WITH him.

This team is poorly constructed.

We need serious influx of talent.

They shouldn't play this had without PM, this is PHX.

They just have no inside game at all. Everything is a jump shot. AH doesn't even look to post up anymore. Everything is a jumper or Teague/DS drive to the basket.

They have to shake things up, they look like zombies out there.

Anyone think maybe there's something going on in the locker room? Teague upset? Budenholzer not getting through?

We have seen bad stretches before but they just look sloppy and disinterested

True that Jamaal, its not just on Paul's absence, tonight.

And then Teague comes in and allows an even quicker 6-0 run.

Both PGs have been total garbage.

They are just way too in love with the 3 now. Like teague had Chandler on him and he bricks a 3, we get the oreb and early shot clock and bazemore launches another 3...brick.

DS comes down, 3....brick.

3 on 1 fast break, pull it out to korver.....3....brick.

It games like this TAKE THE 2. At least attempt to drive to the basket. Ah doesn't even try to go to the hole anymore. He shot faked his defender drove 3 feet and kicked it out AGAIN to another spot up 3 pointer.

This team is honestly going nowhere. If changes aren't made at the deadline, either as sellers or shaking something up, then I don't want Budenholzer as GM anymore.

That is such a Hawks ending. Foul to give and they don't use it? And let Goodwin beat you ?? STUPID.

observer1995 · Post #17 » by **observer1995** » Sun Jan 24, 2016 4:40 am

Well if changes were going to be made on this 4 game road trip then there will be significant changes. Heck, it needs to start now. On Monday if Korver and Teague are still starting, I'm not even going to be watching.

That...is bad coaching. An over reliance on the system. Refusing to adjust based on your personnel. And choosing consistently to bypass good players for lesser talented ones that can hit jumpshots...and not much else.

Last year you had teague attacking the rim. DMC used to cut a lot to the basket too.

Al wasn't taking 3 3pt attempts a game or more.

They look like they have just lost all sense of attacking the rim.

If this is Horford's game now: camping out at the 3 point line and looking only for jumpers, then I don't even want to re-sign him this summer. Let someone else make the mistake of giving him max dollars, because that's what it would be: a mistake.

Horford needs to limit his range to the midrange game, which he's so good at, and he also needs to start attacking the basket. Him focusing so much on mastering the 3 has ruined him. It's Josh Smith all over again.
