Re: 4/7 Raptors at Hawks
It's games like these that probably make Wes and Bud think twice about trading Teague versus trading Schröder

Much needed W! Chicago beating Miami would have been the gravy but oh well

Great win tonight.
Seven players in double digits.
I hope Mike Muscala is ok after taking an elbow to the mouth.

Re: 4/7 Raptors at Hawks
Big win both in the standings and psychologically. We needed to beat these guys. I'm feeling better about our prospects at getting third.

Das kid is playing terrible. Easily his worst stretch of the year.
Here's hoping he gets out of the slump before the postseason begins.

Thabo gets the game ball for his defense on Derozan. I would hope that Bud would consider starting Thabo in a series vs the Raptors since his length and patience really seem to bother Derozan.

This is exactly what I was thinking at around halftime, last night. DeRozen easily had his worst game of the season against us (arguably his worst game of the season overall). The minor Bazemore injury/rest (think he would've played had it been a playoff game) might've ended up being a blessing in disguise as it helped us solve the DeRozen puzzle. Now, I just hope that Bud saw it this way, and does indeed start Thabo if we meet Toronto down the line.

You're right, Thabo shut DeRozan down.
If we meet in the playoffs Raptors should think about inviting NYPD officers to the game.

DeMar DeRozan wrote:They came out aggressive on both ends. A team that’s fighting for something and a team that we beat three times — I’m pretty sure that they didn’t want to make it a fourth — so they came out ultra-aggressive.

Did the Bulls play 60 games a season?
What is impossible is to implement that with Caramelo on board.

Re: 4/7 Raptors at Hawks
So that's why the Knicks weren't good under Fisher (only a .425 winning percentage)? That must be why they're much better under Rambis now that he's able to get them to play the true Triangle with a .320 winning percentage. Oh wait...

And yet Carmelo Anthony is the one player on the team that has adjusted the most to the Triangle.

Re: 4/7 Raptors at Hawks
WTF? That was odd. A thread from wiretap discussing Rambis and Fisher on the Trinagle in NY now merged with a game thread in the Hawks board.

How is there less time than there used to be?
Games are longer?
Planes are slower?
Former teammates' wives are hotter?
What is he talking about?
