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

[Lakerman0834]

I think Bud overestimated Baze's development and really thought he was gonna take it to the next level.

Kyle either needs to be benched to give us depth or we gotta move him for something. He peaked a couple years ago when he made the All Star team, but he's never gonna reach that level again.

And we're eventually gonna have to address the elephant in the room in TrillSap. Dude is having another good year and can opt out after this season. After they tried to trade him this summer, you have to think he's gonna seriously explore his options, especially if he thinks the windows closed here.

ya maybe trading milsap will get some pieces back that will make the offense more fluid. He seemed like he was out of it tonight, and he usually DESTROYS us.

Good game Hawk brehs. I think y'all need to move on from Korver, he ain't what he was and should be coming off the bench rather than starting.



I watched quite a bit of the Bucks game today breh. Parker was KILLING it playing like a ROLE PLAYER rather than the 2nd option. Making the extra pass, not going 1 on 1 a lot, sitting in the corner and hitting that one open three, and being the ultimate...what was it you called it...garbage player. Even got one of those garbage offensive rebounds near the end of the game to get himself to the free throw line.

Let's talk about how Jabari's starting job isn't in jeopardy, Randle's on the other hand


At this rate Randle is gonna have to fight it out with T.Rob and Tarik for front court minutes.

@Malta you see all that sweat coming from @CantStop

Where was Nance the last 2 games

Hawk fans don't take this from him brehs. Coming into your official thread and talking shyt about your team. That's just disrespectful and neg worthy.

I already been up in this thread on some

Sometimes.... just sometimes... I think you're a top 3 poster with posts like this. But then I go into another thread and you remind me why you're not.

You're a B2K fan? Low key one of the most underappreciated groups of all time.

@Regular_P

Lance needs to start getting the majority of the minutes at the 4. Defense is a lot more stable with him on the floor and he can actually hit a jumper. Decent passer as well.

You know how I feel about Nance. The Lakers should be viewing him as the power forward of the present and future. I like Randle, but he isn't needed on this team. Nance does all the little things they need to be successful. He's my favorite player on the team.

@Gil Scott-Heroin is a first ballot hall of famer, you can hate his opinions but he's a villain to most of the Coli, you should be able to appreciate that talent as even your own LWO set hated you at one point

 

[Hiphoplives4eva]

The huge loss to the Jazz was bad enough. Clearly something isn't clicking. I've been following this team for years so I know we're prone to our occasional slides, but something is just off about this team and I can't put my finger on it

It's called Dwight Howard.

Y'all need to get him more touches or else...

They stay getting their thread hijacked. Ain't that right @Ironman @Kristaps Porzingis

I didn't see the game, but the issues are deeper than just one or two games now. I'm sorry @Jerz-2 now is not the time to relax. Something is wrong. I think the chemistry is good, but this offense is terrible before last night's game we were 22nd in efficiency. Bud needs to do something now to address it and it might mean benching Korver or reducing Baze's minutes or even Dennis's minutes till he gets it. His development shouldn't put the overall team at risk

@jaguar paw you still haven't beat us this year :harrymad:

@Gil Scott-Heroin is a low key Hawks stan and has never been right about us, your neg was well earned :harrymad:
