"They Say Du-Wop Homeeee" The GREAT Dwight Howard Returns...2016-17 ATL Hawks Season Thread

Y'all nikkas some shyt or y'all nikkas some shyt?

MAN....you guys are so fatalistic every year.

Let's just r-e-l-a-x. We'll be fine. I said earlier in the season, somewhere in this thread, that we'd have stretches of inconsistency. Schroe is still learning to run the squad, he's gonna be up and down. And even as trash as Bazemore has played, we know he CAN play better. Even then, if he can't, Bud can still adjust without the team falling apart.

Look at the positives: we're .500 on the road (4-4), but 8-3 in the conference. The losses to NY and Utah were ugly but we're still 6-4 over our last ten games. We've looked suspect in those games, yet were still 3rd overall in the East and still lead the Hornets by 1.5 games in the division. We're still first in the league in team defensive efficiency, and ranked in the top ten in many other defensive categories. This is indicative of TEAM EFFORT. So yeah, we're inconsistent but that's to be expected. But at least we're consistent where it counts...

Now....the Lakers have damn near ERE'BODY outta tonight's game. So if we can't win THIS damn game, THEN I'd be a bit concerned. But after last night's pathetic effort, I fully expect these nikkas to play with, at the VERY least, extreme EFFORT tonight. Also, I would think Dwight would wanna have a big game tonight, considering the opponent.

I cautioned patience with this year's team because there are so many new parts. I wasn't fooled by our start and I'm not fazed by our recent 1-4 slide but I am concerned with the inconsistent PG play, the awful offense and the inconsistency of Baze & Korver on the wings is problematic. Would love for us to get a wing with size who can defend and shoot...maybe it's Prince but it's not Baze right now and that's a concern

I don't think the team is falling apart but they're just not playing well and that was with an easy schedule

[jaguar paw]

@jaguar paw how many times you last night?

Zero.

She enjoyed it as much as I did.

Still asking each other a thousand questions about the time gaps.

I blew her back out afterwards because I'm a stereotype.
