Man being a Hawks fan is tough.. nothing but props towards the defending champs but watching home games in Atlanta has been super frustrating as a fan because of the officiating. I know our team isn’t great but there always seems to be an implicit bias against Trae Young ever since they changed “foul officiating” rules. Calls just not have been consistent on both ends. No excuses, but the NBA needs to be better!
trae young carried tbh
I just cannot believe this, i simply don’t understand, a team with this much talent just cannot buy a win. Shoutout to bogi for his efforts though 40 piece off the bench. Everyone liked to joke about this team being at .500 and can’t escape it but they are not even playing like that, they are not even meeting that. 4 losses in a row the frustration levels are through the roof. Also in my opinion it was unbelievably stupid how trae was ejected for simply clapping his hands, either way i’m pretty sure me and many others are sick of the way this team is playing. Just 3 wins in the last 12 games. I’m simply not sure whether this team cares much or what but they simply do not put the effort needed to win games, nothing personal i’m a massive fan of this team but this is just bad basketball. Just praying for the day this team decides to turn it around. #TrueToAtlanta
Hello guys
Jokic finally was efficient like usual
Good to see
Trae gets ejected for….clapping?
Good game NUGGETS
The Hawks really fought here. Good win to the Nuggets.
back to back baby
Atlanta played Denver tough and fought hard to comeback but this was a good get right game for Denver after some rough losses. Jamal and Jokic was 21-28 with a combined 17 rebounds and 13 assists. Considering how they looked the last couple games that’s a good bounce back performance heading into Chicago tomorrow and a three game home stretch.

I'm glad to see that Jokic has cut down on the numbers of three's he's attempted this season and is focusing more on dominating the paint. Save the 3's for the postseason bruh.

The Atlanta Hawks are impressively mid. Their commitment to being mid deserves praise.

Neither SG shot well tonight but when the Champs come to your home floor, you don't want to go for 8-23 from the field and 3-8 from three. DeJounte Murray needs to get his shit together yo.

Man, the Hawks fought hard tonight. They put up a great effort tonight against the Champs. Too bad they couldn't get the dub. It would have been a huge momentum boost for them.
Nuggs outrebounded the Hawks 49-35. That was the difference in the game.
Props to the Hawks for fighting there at the end. Just sucks they are a pretty average team that still can’t play defense
thanks, our angels-for "erla/or erle/or erli/or herla/or herlan/or erlan powers of the worlds/or inri and emma(watson)"-and loves!

I wonder how The Nuggets perceive The Lakers winning an in season trophy and having a banner celebration — less than 2 months after Denver received the main championship trophy 😂
The nuggets really need to trade for a good backup center and they would have one of the best benches
