That low key needs to be his new nickname
Schroeder only got 2season in me before he overtakes Teague as my favorite hawks pg
Not yet.. Has potential to be more dominate but until all star we was historically great

2014 was more unselfish, more perimeter based. But I think I prefer this offense more even tho to @SteezY point 2014 was a historical one. This offense can beat you inside & outside, has real depth and can get out and run. Until Dennis/Delaney/Beigemore cuts down on the turnovers I don't think we're at the 2014 level, but we can score with anybody right now on any night

He's getting better. I didn't see most of the game tonight but he starting to figure it out. He's still very young tho so he's gonna be up & down

I think Delaney have a player option on his second year. Hawks about to have a lot of free agents that may get a nice payday...
Thabo
Korver
Muscala
Delaney
Tim Hardaway Jr.
Millsap

Millsap/THJR and maybe Thabo everybody else is replaceable

There is something about that fourth-quarter defense.
The Hawks lead the NBA, by a wide margin, in allowing an average of just 20.1 points in the final period. The Celtics are second by allowing 25.8 fourth-quarter points.
“One of coach’s methods is to wear teams down,” Kent Bazemore said. “That may be what it is. We have such great depth and guys are playing so well off the bench that over time we wear times out. Human nature in the fourth quarter is to heighten your senses a little bit. For us, that is winning time. Obviously, you want to play well throughout the game but the fourth quarter is where you hone your focus as an individual and as a team.”
The Hawks (7-2) have allowed a low of 13 points (Rockets) and a high of 33 points (Lakers) in the final quarter. They have allowed opponents less than 20 points six times.
In stark contrast, the Hawks are tied for last in the NBA with the Nets by allowing 29.0 third-quarter points.
Overall, the Hawks are second in the league with a team defensive rating of 95.8. They trail only the Clippers at 92.7.
“You can’t rely on that,” Tim Hardaway Jr. said of the fourth-quarter prowess. “It should be from the start of the game to the end of the game. But it’s great that we are showing we can finish games strong and play with that type of intensity.”
Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer uses a 20-point quarter as a measure of a solid defensive quarter. He is known to loathe a 30-point quarter.
Here’s how the Hawks’ defense ranks by quarter:
Q1: 5th, 24.1
Q2: 10th, 25.7
Q3: 30th, 29.0
Q4: 1st, 20.1
“Anytime we have a 20-point quarter, he lets us know,” Bazemore said. “He lets us know it’s well appreciated. We play defense. That’s what he loves. That’s what a lot of guys on this team love. It’s our calling card.”
Note: Budenholzer did not attend Monday’s practice due to a personal issue. He will be in Miami for the team’s game against the Heat on Tuesday.
