Are the Atlanta Hawks Title Contenders Next Season? 👀
Look at me with a straight face and tell me the Atlanta Hawks are contenders. Atlanta Hawks are contenders. Oh my god. In a wideopen East that we’ve acknowledged, you have Trey Young. If Atlanta player in the East, I have one of the better defenders in the East. I have Jaylen Johnson who is one of the better bigs in the East. We just added Christo Porzingis NBA champion. Zachary Reese say we expect him to take a step forward, but even if he doesn’t, he’s one of the better three and D guys. You’re locking them in better than Detroit. They’re locked in. I think so. Locked in better than Detroit. Yes, they were possible. It’s possible. I’m not I got them at the four seed. And where would they be in the West? Cho, they’re not all I want to ask because if you’re a real contender, you probably can compete in the West. They’re a contender. Last check. I don’t think the Knicks would be a contender in the West, but they’re going to make the possible. In order to get to the NBA championship, I got to get through Giannis. In order to get to the NBA championship, I got to get through Detroit. In order to get to the NBA championship, I got to get through Orlando and New York and Cleveland. These are the teams that I have to get through. So I’m not concerned with the Western Conference right now. What I am concerned about is matchups. So if it’s So that’s not how it works, Ben. Yeah. No, I understand how conferences to me. If you ask me Cleveland was either. Yo, there’s usually four contenders. If you think there are more than four contenders, it’s five contenders in a really deep year. If you think there’s more than five contenders, you’re crazy. There aren’t usually more than five contenders. Are there contenders in the Eastern Conference then? If they’re not one of the four best teams in the in the in in the NBA, honestly, if the Cleveland Cavaliers were in the Western Conference, they would be a playoff team. Okay. But I’m saying so there are no contenders in the East based on that that that thought. I think I I think Cleveland is a contender. I think New York, you could put them on the fringe, but I don’t think it’s a secret to say most the contenders in this league are in the West. Denver, OKC, which is fair. Okay, those other contenders. Beyond that, the Lakers. Beyond that, the Clippers, maybe. Beyond that who? I I’m sorry.
How good are the Atlanta Hawks now? #nba #basketball

If sarcasm were an Olympic sport, I'd have a gold medal and a sarcastic acceptance speech🍓
I get what they’re saying but. Any team that can’t win the Title imo is not a Contender. Atlanta not beating any team out West whether that’s Denver. OKC. Houston. Losing. Especially given Porzingus will not be healthy in the playoffs because he’s NEVER been healthy in the playoffs.
People who say there are only a few contending teams cannot reconcile that the Pacers were the 5th ranked team in the weaker conference, and had a lead in game 7 until their star player went down. To me that's evidence that roughly the 10th best team last year had a viable title shot.
The east is so wide open so I won’t be surprised if the hawks are contenders
