    The Hawks have no answer to the double team on Trae.

    Bogie and Huerter not scoring and Trae getting doubled means we have no shot to score

    Nate not calling timeout during the 24-6 run in the first half was just horrendous. Spo is absolutely coaching circles around him . They were on a 10-0 run and Collins hit a 3 and Spo immediately called a timeout to squelch any chance of a run. They then proceeded to go on another 10+ run. Meanwhile Nate just buries his hands in his armpits and hopes our young men can just shoot their way out of these runs. It's embarrassing. This is the same guy that insisted on playing Lou Williams over Delon all season despite it being obvious that Delon is the team's backup point guard and one of our best on ball defenders.

    Also, he's not playing Bogi enough and it's got to be fucking with his head. Bogi is the only reason we won game 3 and he still insists on playing him 20 minutes in a pivotal game 4? No excuse for that.

    It's clear Collins doesn't have the same jump coming off his injury. We need him grinding down there with Capella being limited. Those two both being banged up is just a recipe for disaster. And Spo is such a great tactician constantly getting easy matchups with Trae and Gallo on defense. Gallo is a great offensive weapon but he can be borderline unplayable on the other side.

    Also it was nice to see Hunter score but he needs to be more involved on other parts of the stat sheet. He should be our best defender but he's not. He doesn't get enough rebounds either. If this team is going to work with Trae running the show, the 3/4s have to be ELITE defenders to make up for Trae's shortcomings. We have to upgrade our wing(s) if we want to make any more playoff runs.

    I’m confident Trae is going to spend the offense studying the Heat defense and breaking it down because yikes this series

    a secondary creator would destroy all this shit they do.

    it also doesn’t help that we let Spo play defensive bums like Dedmon, Duncan and Herro without getting Trae in there on them

    Every single shot is a fade away or contested. Zero ball movement, zero free buckets. Really good defense and a horrible game plan leads to this. If you don’t have a great shooting night or someone plays hero ball it’s going to be bad

    Perfect synopsis of the season at the end of the game. Shameful showing from everyone but Hunter tonight. Embarrassing in a game where the opponents didn’t have 40% of their starting lineup available.

    Regarding the Heat, PJ Tucker flopping around while being a fake tough guy was annoying all series.

    Not even sure where we go now. Blow it up. I think we all knew the Collins contract was going to not work out but he averaged like 10/5 this series and we are stuck for 4 more years. Hope Trae learns a lot from this series, he was pretty poor (lot of reasons many out of his control).

    Also can we fire this goon please

    Collins’s hand looked like this a few weeks ago. I think we can excuse his playoff performance this season.

    Not gonna win shit with Trae committing more TO’s than made FG’s. What a poor performance from him. Without the stupid play in round we don’t even make the playoffs
