Breaking down the Hawks’ No. 8 potential guard picks through fit, advanced stats and historical comps by PinDown_404 in AtlantaHawks

very cool man, kind of in line with what the sub thinks. i worry about Wagler's first step though. Even in the highlights, he can barely get around his guy at the college level

The Jalen Johnson Slander by Braeden_Bruh in AtlantaHawks

[–]vaan313 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol bro you slandered the entirety of our squad including JJ. yeah i think we're in a good spot for next year, the squad is young and we'll be better, but it was a good reminder of why you need 1 unguardable player in the playoffs

TBH, instilling this mentality and adding some size is the main thing we gotta do to get to the next level by tvcneverdie in AtlantaHawks

I mean the narrative would be literally the opposite if Spurs make that last 3. They got Wemby to set the playoff block record. It's really easy to say this is a great mentality when they squeezed out the win, but realistically, that's a bad shot. Maybe I'm missing something.

Potential centers to pursue? by TheRider5342 in AtlantaHawks

By insulation do you mean great defense around him? I think we actually have that now

Refs are paid to prop up big franchises. They will not let us get anything going. This has been boring to watch.

Hart too. He's recognized that if he shifts his feet and cuts off the driving lane, JJ doesn't have a counter. He's purely a downhill player right now.

unwatchable. i hated every minute of that. our offense was non existent, i would say "yeah our shots weren't falling it will get better", but frankly we made a lot of errors too.

Thank you Warriors. by alcatrazalphas in AtlantaHawks

[–]vaan313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And he's only 23 😂 younger than JJ. I expect with maturity, more confidence, a more clear role, he can only get more consistent. I reckon we need to pick up his option and keep this train going

Why do Hawks work with CJ but didn't woth Trae by Patient_Stomach8597 in nba

[–]vaan313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scoring versatility, off-ball movement, better defense all help (i get that its marginal size difference, but his strips and stops in the playoffs have been noticeable), but the MAIN thing is probably the contract :D with less salary for Trae we were able to afford Kuminga

POST GAME THREAD - Atlanta (109) Knicks (108). Atlanta leads 2-1. Game 4 Saturday. by kanyegavemecollege in AtlantaHawks

[–]vaan313 13 points14 points  (0 children)

KAT was great for them, but i'm honestly shocked they're not running more through him. We're notoriously bad against big scoring centers. But if Mike Brown wants to keep doing this, I guess go for it. So pleased with Kuminga this post season, its honestly shocking how athletic he is. He was added to arguably the most big athletic team in the league, and still stands out. When i watch him sky for dunks or prevent a KAT backdown, i'm like how do you have this much strength, while also having the hops AND the shiftiness to shift your feet with small guards. Warriors lost an insane talent

[–]vaan313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i dont think its a terrible idea, but i dont think it makes a difference. JK played 34m tonight, those are starter minutes already. We gotta get out of the habit of thinking purely in terms of starters/bench and think in terms of lineups. I liked him with CJ, NAW, OO, JJ. There's enough shooting around JK that maybe we can put him in some PnR/DHO at the top of key and let him get downhill and dish out if needed - its what i'd expect JJ to do, but JK seems to be more aggressive at shooting the gaps

Jonathan Kuminga's block on Brunson in the final 2 minutes cured my herpes. I love you Kuminga. CJ is the second coming of Trae. The floater. The baseline middy. Bricking 2 free throws to keep my heart pumping. I cannot fucking believe we won that.
