Hawks Fire Lloyd Pierce

[EarlyEarly]

Hawks had one of the best pre seasons and started out hot then shyt fan and they're back to being ass. It doesn't matter who coaches these guys, Trae got them in a headlock.

 

[Rekkapryde]

that's fukked up.

 

[MikelArteta]

There were multiple reports in offseason that coach Pierce would be fired if Hawks did not do well. That rumor probably came from their FO too.

 

[MikelArteta]

Damn I like him he got the team to the common point. Now the next person who comes in will take it to a higher level. Hopefully we can get some real candidates in there to interview like Udoka, Griffin and a few others who are skipping my mind right now even the timberwolves assistant.

Griffin ain't getting a call since his ex wife ruined his last chance

prob will be a kenny atkinson, jason kidd,, udoka, hammon, collins, joeger, gentry types

I'm not mad at that I just want some new blood. I've seen some of these dudes like Udoka and a few others interviewing for multiple seasons...I also think some of these dudes were unjustly fired....I guess no point in me bringing up Mark Jackson for a job in Atlanta either huh.

collins, capela, huerter, young is enough to look halfway decent

breh its the east. if atlanta couldn't look competent this year, when they gonna do it?

They had two stretches where they looked competent. Both of those stretches were ended by a major injury. Before Hunter got hurt, it was looking like they were turning a corner. Gallo, Bogdanovic, Rondo and Reddish have all been trash this year.

 

[El Bombi]

i feel like the gm needs some accountability

Coli Hawks fans said that he was building the next Golden State Warriors tho.

 

[staticshock]

teams with more injuries play better than the hawks.... it's hilarious how that's always their excuse

teams with less talent by far play better than the hawks

What teams are those?
Bogi has missed at least half the season..Deandre Hunter was a dawg out there but he’s missed the last month and probably will miss the next one.

Schlenk has nobody else to hide from after this firing. You built this roster, bruh

Capela been a god send

Trae is trae

DeAndre Hunter been a beast up until he got hurt

Bogi been gone half the year


Gallo can have a career night the go back fukking up the next game

Reddish, Huerter, been inconsistent as fukk. That’s something you can put on him

Okungwu been injured most of the season but he hasn’t shown promise when he’s on the floor..

Pierce had to go they looked way better when Nate was taking over for him while he was out for the birth of his child.

What teams are those?

memphis
miami
dallas
chicago

and yal got straight up more talent than new york, charlotte, and toronto even with the injuries

shyt, the fact that trae + collins/capela isn't easy money most nights should have everybody in the league regarding dude

 

[Flex Luger]

The Rondo signing is still mind boggling. Dude should only be on a team contending for a title because he gives zero fukks about the regular season.

 

[Originalman]

They probably did this now mainly because they have Nate McMillan to fall back on. Some would say he should be the coach anyway.

Now that the deed is done I think Nate will make them at least respectable moving forward

Low key IMO nate didn't get enough credit for what he did in indy (but what black coach ever gets credit in the league).

Not crazy about this firing (even though a brotha getting the spot) when luke monkey ass in Sacramento after getting axed in LA..hasn't done shyt in sac town and also has/had a sexual assault allegation on him and yet he still keeping his job and getting them paychecks.

I know that the Hawks had a better record than Chicago & Miami when we were somewhat healthy & they weren’t.

No reason New York & Charlotte should have a better record I agree..but I think Toronto has a better team. They’re only missing Kawhi & Ibaka from their title team a couple seasons back.

John Collins turned down a extension cause he thinks he’s a max player, but he isn’t playing like one. Randle in New York is balling his ass off & JC should be doing the same.

Trae is one of the best play makers and assist man in the league..they gotta knock down the shots but they haven’t been.

And Trae has regressed shooting wise

based off what he did last season I’ll give him more leeway cause he’s proven he can put up numbers.

Every young NBA player who played against Cam Reddish in AAU & College claim he’s the hardest they’ve ever had to guard and how much of a monster he is, but he’s only shown that a few times thus far in his career

I was a big Huerter fan but he can leave with Pierce

 

[Originalman]

I mean Luke Walton should be scorching also....I wonder if the Celtics continue to under achieve would they move on from coach stevens.

Stevens should be safe. He done had the celtics in the conference finals 3 times since he been the coach.
