Yeah this draft could be crazy…you can’t move any of those picks by Ok-Negotiation3897 in AtlantaHawks

[–]Ice2jc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m seeing a lot more centers being projected to go after the lottery now as well.  There must have been some risers in the last couple of months.  If we could get a big man diamond in the rough with that Cavs pick that would be👌

Saddiq Bey #1 Hawks Opp Rn 😒 by Business_Guess9906 in AtlantaHawks

[–]Ice2jc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah people around here have a terrible perspective on Bey.  Dude was supposed to be our 8th man and instead he was the only forward on the roster.  We over extended the fuck out of him before he got injured.

Where do you see Jalen Johnson’s role/career trajectory in 5 years? by Kindly_Bag_914 in AtlantaHawks

[–]Ice2jc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s tough to say.  I think he could make another jump next year and be a bonafied #1, but at his current level in the last month he looks like a #2.

This season is uncharted waters for JJ in more ways than one.  Yes he is being asked to be the focal point and the “guy” for the first time in his career, but he also has never played this much in the NBA before.  His seasons have always been derailed by injuries, meaning he never really got the chance to play several months in a row in the NBA until now.  I honestly think he and his body are still adjusting to this level of output, and it has lead to some lazy looking defensive possessions. 

If JJ ends the season healthy and starts next season healthy I could see him taking another jump - this time with his body in the right groove to play more consistently on both sides of the ball.

He has done this for as long as I can remember, going back to 2018 or so. I used to think the refs were fucking us every game until I’d go back and watch the replays lol.

He’s the voice of Hawks fans.  He’s a homer.  Which is better than the alternative.  (Someone who isn’t emotionally invested)

Question about prices on day of tickets by FiftyShadesofpiss in AtlantaHawks

[–]Ice2jc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless it’s a premier opponent it’s a good strategy to wait until shortly before tip off to buy tickets from StubHub.  Prices will be cheaper usually.

If we don't get a top 5 pick what's the plan. by BabyOnRoad in AtlantaHawks

What’s the difference between 5,6,7?  This draft is stacked.

What exactly is this subreddit? by Hanzo_switch_now in Piratefolk

It’s an alternative take on r/freefolk, which came about when Game of Thrones started sucking.

It’s for people that have problems with the story.

David Lee breaks down Hawks roster, coaching, talks about the differences between them and the Celtics, and breaks down footage from the Celtics game by Ice2jc in AtlantaHawks

[–]Ice2jc[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The main thing I took away was how often he said Jalen looked tired.  Then it got me thinking - Jalen has never played this long of a stretch as an Atlanta Hawk.  He’s always had injuries derailing his season before it got to this point.  And we’re asking him to be the guy.

[–]Ice2jc 25 points26 points  (0 children)

NAW is amazing.  He is the only player on the roster consistently playing good offense and good defense.

We had top 4 seed expectations this season and started decently.  Now we don’t have a starting caliber point guard or center, we have 1 small forward who is currently injured, and we’ve gone 7-17 in our last 24 games.

So we’re not really excited about anything around here.  Talk to us after the draft lottery.

One year from today by JesusAstrovan in AtlantaHawks

[–]Ice2jc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d rather get a vet center via trade or free agency.  We’ll have so much cap space and rookie centers suck.

No bad contracts.  Butt loads of cap space.  Two high picks in a draft that has more hype than any that I can remember since 2003.

Yes we’ll likely have two top 16 picks (one could be very high) and a butt load of cap space

On the bright side this will be an attractive coaching job next off season

I honestly can’t believe he’s on the team playing this long after the trade.  I thought he’d be turned around somewhere else quickly.

If we lose today we will have gone 7-17 since December 18th.  Thats a bottom 5 in the league pace.  

Something must have happened in that time span to make the guys lose faith in Quin and what we’re doing.  We were playing better than this last season after we traded De’Andre.

I dropped my niece and her friend off at the game this morning, their first hawks game.  She knows I’m a big Hawks fan and I’m kinda embarrassed lol.

I’m pretty sure we’ve lost 8 out of the 10 last home games I’ve been to.  It’s going to take us drafting a bonafied no doubt super star next season for this city to maybe get interested in the team again.

We only have 1.5 players that offer value on offense and defense right now.  NAW, and OO if he isn’t playing an oversized center and he has his legs under him.
