The league no longer boosts players by 2 and 3 inches. If you're so informed you should know that.


A walking 30 & 10 isn't easily replaced. The Hawks overachieved 2 years ago in the first place. Trae was always this player, but that was known when he was selected, and he's exceeded most expectations with the effectiveness he shows. He could lead better just as much as the Hawks could build around him better.

Is making sure to downgrade his height to overemphasize his flaws that much better than literally using a particular label?

30/10
.500 ball
Beef with current coach/teammates
Previous coach with more success fired for him
Lack of size and lack of desire for significant two way impact

Can be replaced

Previous coach with more success? You making more shyt up? :pachaha:

No, it can't. Hawks want a better record? Build better and tell your current coach that trying to twist a rehabbing star player's arm into shootaround followed by offering a bench role as a punishing ultimatum instead of a team-serving sacrifice.

If Trae was good in that locker room coach wouldn't have to do that.

But hey, 30/10.

30/10...

John Collins being mad that the best player dominates the ball has nothing to do with the fact that the coach who never wanted the job from day one was incapable of correctly approaching his best player about temporary role change to bounce back from injury.

Absolutely, 30/10...

What star or superstar is winning a ship with the Hawks roster?

The roster has everything he could ask for except a 4 in the mold of someone like Bam or AD.

Bogi is a 2 that can create for himself and shoot.


Murray does his thing

Hunter is a good defensive wing

Capela is a great pick and roll partner and rim protector.

Hate to say it but it’s a title contender with Luka :francis:
