No need to tank, trade time? Who do we want to target, Brad??
😮😮
Bogdan got to go that man cant shoot no more,he left his talent in serbia
Mo G era has begun, alot of people talking about trades I feel very confident that we have a diamond in the rough with MO G need to get all the burn this year
Dang Jalen. Sad day indeed.
Trades need to be made
Thank you for making Hawks Basketball fun this year Jalen, see ya next year.
We're done for w/o JJ. Are panick moves next?
The fact that the Hawks don't have their own pick is comforting that they will not be in tank mode. Hawks have expiring contracts to package. Something is probably going on with Bogie; wouldn't be surprised if he's moved! Hunter;if not traded will definitely start. Vit and Mo have played themselves into more pt! Plus there are some free agents Hawks could look at. Hawks will make at least the play-in. I expect the Bulls to be big sellers and tank to keep their top 10 protected pick. Losing games in not an option and I'm sure thats what spurs fans are hoping! JJ can't be replaced but there is no reason to have that next man up mentality. Orlando has been doing that all year long! Unfortunately injuries are part of everyone's reality at times. Go hawks..GM make some moves! Use those expiring contracts!!!
Sorry about Jalen, Bogi is not stepping up. You just can't count on none of them.
"to not have" I meant to say in my previous post.. when it comes to NEXT MAN UP! Players want to play!!! Here's a real opportunity for some!!!
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 😢
I want the hawks to make some big trades
It obviously sucks JJ is out, I am oddly optimistic to see the younger guys (Zacch, Mo, Dom, Plowden) fill the role and develop into legitimate role players. Even open to a trade if it can somehow improve the roster for the future. Thanks for the emergency pod sir 🫡
If Mo G can step up for the hawks at the 4 and Risacher 3 the szn might not be over but again they're young I would be surprised that they can save the szn but tbh we gotta trade for some 3&D guys bc our 3pts shooting and allowing 3pt% per game is awful that's the biggest issue. The plan to me is getting some 3&D guys and guys who needs to be traded : Kobe, Roddy,Capela, Bogi, Zeller. Then this off-season we can draft a 7ft center to backup Okongwu
Does this turn of events accelerate Mo Gueye's development?
Nightmare 2-weeks. 6-game losing streak, MIP candidate out for the year, gotta love being a hawks fan….
Noooooooooo!!!!! 😢😢😢😢😢
Shame that Jalen had to go down in his breakout season. I don’t care who they bring in. I just don’t want David Roddy to be the full time starting 4.
