We can not win Atlanta because we are THAT bad.

Tauren Prince may have won us a championship in 5 years.

Well, Booker played like **** in this game. I don't think we are that bad normally.

It doesn't help that most of these teams are trying desperately to lose with resting players and stuff. The only saving grace is that they play each other more than we do, but if we beat them we may be outside of the bottom 4 or 5.

We only have 3 more against bottom teams. 1 is Dallas who should beat us.

Amazing loss. I love Devin Booker even more for missing that game winner, and if I ever seen Taurean Prince in public I'll buy him a beer or three.

Is there a reason Schroeder played 20 minutes other than attempting to throw the game?

Yeah, today we got a huge break with Payton getting tossed, otherwise that'd be 2 wins against bottom dwellers. Hopefully we keep slipping on banana peels n I'm wrong about the trade haha.

19-46....19-46.
We are not that bad NORMALLY?

Booker. 20 points, 3 assists on 44.4% shooting.
He averages 25.2 and 4.8 assists on 43.3% shooting....not a big difference at all.

He was scoring too much

Atlanta deserves that win for benching Schroder and Bazemore. Get tanked bitches.

Nope. It's interesting that Bud is trying stuff like this after Silver said he'll harshly punish obvious tanking shenanigans. I guess these teams are calling his bluff.

Honestly they should call his bluff after Cuban got a little slap on the wrist for saying "Yeah we're trying like hell to lose games on purpose"

Feeling comfortable with a bottom-2 record which guarantees a top-4 pick in the strongest draft since 04’.

Budenholzer didn't even call a timeout for their last play, with 20s left. That was as ridiculous as it gets

Obviously we are not good to say the least, but the Hawks were on fire from 3. Over 50% on 33 attempts. They have also played well lately beating the Pacers and barely losing to the Warriors in their last one.

I think we start to turn the corner next year with a better coaching situation and a real offseason training camp, and if the 2nd year guys don't take a major step forward next season, I'm sure decisions will be made regarding them if they are still around.

F Atlanta for trying to blatantly tank. Schroeder was killing it. Bazemore killed GS and us in his last game and they didn’t play them. I bet the coach and mgmt are pissed about winning....lmao!! That was gigantic in the tank wars....made my day
