This will be a another 40pt game for Trae.

Seems like when he has a hot 1st half, he cools off in the second half.

Trae played the entire 1st quarter. He was so hot CLP left him in.
Him and Dame were going at it.
Loved it!

Defenses change and he gets more assists.

I just want Trae to play within the offense. He forced a few 3s there at the end. You can tell he's trying to match Dame and that's cool and all. Just do it within the offense.

It feels like Kevin has been in this shooting slump forever but his 3pt% doesn't move much.

I agree 100% with this. No need to get caught up in the back and forth. I think doing that threw him off his game a little bit.

I'm looking forward to seeing Kevin improve his body this offseason.

I think we are gonna see huge improvement in Kev's game next year. The kid is good now but he has to grow and that is what we are seeing now

I had to check in and see how much this game thread was lit up! Trae has us on the all NBA map and it don't look like he is slowing down. Man what a rookie!

Go Hawks!

I'm focusing on the calves, what about you?

I am scratching my head a little at these lineup choices tonight. Mixes we have not seen much of and Alex Len has not even played. Wonder what that is about

Ice cold, not in the right way.. lol

The way CLP is putting on the floor they have no interest in winning this game. If that's the case we may not win nother the rest of the season.

Len not playing is all about the tank, err, a bad knee. Or maybe it's a shoulder? I forget exactly but just know it's an injury of some sort :wink:

Pierce indicated Deyonta Davis would get minutes tonight. Len has been 'dinged' up.

Rough shooting night, but 2 boards (one in garbage time) by Johnny Bap won't get 'er done!

Good chance to get closer to the pin (if not the win) on Sunday versus Bud and Company.

Go Hawks!

Three ball was not falling tonight. Weren't getting any calls either.
