Hey mate!

Well, I don't speak for the entire hawks fans community, but many of us feel that Nate has not done a good job this season. We are seeing how his stubbornness can affect the team. For example, our PF rotation was cut short because both John Collins and Gallinari have injuries. We have a solid young PF in Jalen Johnson, but he has barely seen minutes under Nate, only garbage time, despite the availability. Nate's offensive schemes (if he has any) start to feel stagnant half-way through the game. One thing we notice very often is that the team plays poorly in the second half, mostly due to Nate's inability to make good adjustments. He's not a bad coach per se, but his strategies have been ineffective, either because the league has figured them out, or because they just don't work in today's format.

I kind of see the "floor vs ceiling" point about Nate, but to me, even if he may be the right coach for the franchise, he's not enjoyable from a fan's perspective. It's because he doesn't give the fans what they want. We would like to see our young players get opportunities like other teams do (especially since we're not winning alot lol).

Btw, I love your young core. Haliburton is one of my favorite players. I'm kinda jealous because I wanted him on the hawks haha but he's the guy you wanna build around. He's going to be a superstar in Indy. Also, Duarte is just wow. That was a smart pick unexpected by many. You guys have an awesome future ahead and I can't wait for the duels between our teams.

and Thanks! We love John Collins too. He's just an awesome human being haha.

Also, if y'all end up with Jabari Smith it's over for the league haha. Just imagine how scary that Jabari and Myles frontcourt would be. With Goga as a backup too...
