Sad loss. Demoralizing really.

I can't get over the play at the end of regulation. I have literally never seen a player try to take the foul to give and the ref not call it. Like...ever.

Courtesy of the best post game recaps in the Hawks fandom...


Hawks shot chart from the 2nd Quarter against the Cavs, when the game got out of hand and the Cavs took a double-digit lead. Too much outside shooting, not enough action in the paint:

Horford HAS to hit that shot, period.

The shot chart is indicative of when this team is at its worst and usually how they get behind. They fall in love with the 3 ball or long jumpers which is BAD.

They don't get fouled going to the basket, they don't post, they don't rebound.

So you see 4-6 point deficits turn into 10-15 PT deficits quickly.

Jeff teagues end of game/quarter internal clock continues to flabbergast me.

5.1 seconds ad he's waiting at the top of the key for a pick??? You dont have time for that.
