Trae and JC first and 2nd - everything and everyone else fit in.
I agree, it won't work at all. Adjustments need to be made and now we face Utah tonight.

Yes not anymore, it was nice last season having Trae and and 6 or 7 players that would rotate giving you 22-25 point game. I don't see that happening for a while, unless you play better defense and get more ops
Where the offseason has more buzz happens.

This. The Jazz ran it with Stockton and Malone and everyone else fit in. Yes Hunter shows flashes, yes Cam does as well, but they need to get in where they fit in for now and let’s milk what we can when it works for us. Why are we making it harder on ourselves?

Funny I used the Stockton to Malone example.. look who we got tonight! :nod: Time to take Jazz fans back to that duo, only for our side. :lol:

It looks like now they are almost full roster, they have a problem to play as hard as last season when they had no other choice because several players were missing each games, so they all had more minutes and more touches by game, when they were not injured, because other were.

It's a different thing now, added to the fact that except DET and NOP, they only played teams with the best records of this season.
Better wait before taking any conclusion

We've had a tough schedule, lots of 3 games in 4 nights...playing pretty much every other night so also no real practice time

By the time these Hawks make it to the court in Denver on Friday, with or without their tailfeathers tucked between their legs, they will have “enjoyed” the first two-day “rest” period (i.e., no game days) since the season began.

Of the 29 other NBA clubs, only three will have waited longer for their first two-day siesta than the Hawks, once off-day #2 arrives for Atlanta on November 11th. Seventeen of them have already “enjoyed” it at least twice, like Denver and Phoenix thrice, while the entire Western Conference have already kicked back for at least one. The Jazz, like the Warriors, Suns, Cavs, and Pistons (all Hawks opponents played in the early going), have had at least one stanza of three or more non-game-
days.
