I agree that QS is still the right man for this job.

But this isn't the first time we've had criticisms of his playing rotations.

Keaton Wallace getting early minutes and Mo Gueye relegated to garbage time is...a choice.

Annoyingly fustrating watching it play out in person playing small when we couldn't secure the rebounds. My poor kid...yelling 'grab the ball' :nonono:

Rotations goes w/o saying. My main criticisms are his defensive strategy. With Trae on offense the team will be fine for the most part whomever coaches.

It's crazy you are fully healthy and add two plus defenders and look that bad. The game is slowly passing him by.

One plus defender barely played - Dyson...which meant more minutes for Luke and Wallace (at least that's what I'm trying to convince myself).
We lost the transition game particularly in the 3rd and fouls fouls fouls.

Even if it's so easy: need defense, play with Mo

Yeah, this is definitely one of Quin's blind spots.

In limited minutes, this particular lineup is not paying off.

OO is too small at center and JJ hasn't been stellar on defense so far. Our bigs are the defensive driver.

Great job Quin, you have Trae Young, and NAW leading the team in shot attempts.

3-Point Shooting
NAW 5 for 21
Trae 4 for 16

Keep shooting us right out of games.

The guy on the top left gets a pass.
He is fine but it's everybody else that is the problem.

Sincerely,

Most Hawk Fans

Riiight.....Because everyone else is doing such a great job.
Can't take shots if you're in street clothes or passing up open attempts.
Zacc - 6 attemps, 1 game
KP - 7 attemps, 1 game
JJ - 2 attempts, 2 games
Dyson - afraid to take them, passed up 3 wide open attempts last game
Luke - attacking close outs??? Reluctant to shoot
Vit and MoG- letting it fly when he plays
Asa - not bashful, love it

lineups with Porzingis and Trae are playing the fastest of any 3 man grouping:

As well as: No Wallace. Less Luke. More Vit!

Quin has many things he can try. Until LK finds his shot, he's a big negative. Once he finds it, we'll be much happier to see him on the court

Honestly, I'd like to see us feature him more. Run him off ball like Curry to use his gravity as a shooter and get him more catch and shoot opportunities.

Luke Kennard is legitimately one of the greatest catch and shoot players in NBA History.

LK needs to be used properly.
Once that occurs his confidence may go up.
