    Last 3 games have been really fun to watch. Sharpe is our franchise player...finally feels like chemistry is starting to build an identity for the team...been long overdue. Fuck tanking. Lose trying to win, fine but these guys sure don't look like they want another rookie taking minutes from them.

    He's young and thinking too much whether he should dribble some time off. He won't make the same mistake again.

    At this point I don't see the point in taking, we ain't gonna be anywhere near the worst team in the league. That's reserved for the Jazz, Raptors, Wizards and maybe Pelicans if they just decide to "shut it down." I want us to win as much as possible as long as Sharpe, Scoot, Clingan and/or Camara are contributing big. Don't need to see Simons or Ayton anymore. We should just pray the NBA decides to reward us with the number 1 pick this time no matter what position we are in.

    Banton is our best PG right now. He's much better than Scoot offensively, and his length is an asset on defense.

    16 steals must be a season high.

    Can I just say: this Hawks team is no joke! Getting Daniels and Quinn Snyder has really turned this team around. And Jalen Johnson and Risacher are a great young pair of forwards. Trae Young is their Anfernee, though.

    Point is: this was a solid win! And I no longer hate ALL third quarters

    2 years ago we were .500 going into the break and ended with the 6th best odds.

    Don't doubt Joe and Co's ability to tank. That's the one thing they've shown they can do.

    I would still like to see us tank. We do not have a championship core yet. Need one more star piece.

    Simons wishes he was Young. And I hate Young’s game.

    Let's all enjoy Timelord (+20 to Clingan's -20) as much as we can until FO realizes the easiest way to tank is to trade him (and he's also the easiest to trade).
