RedCam it is!

#20 Jalen Johnson is intriguing, and part of the reason ATL could part with RedCam.

RedCam has a game similar to RJB, but faster and wilder.

Sorry Kamster, BoZ passed on your help with BoZnames. FWIW, I liked Creddish as a native of Creda.

PS- Westbrook really musta done someting to BoZ, in this life or another one...

Nice. Without Capella, Lou Wil and Gallo were the only Hawks who could really hurt us.

Good workload distribution. I feel like we are slowly building something here.

EDIT
Burks 17, 9, and 8, no TOs, 2 of 6 from three but 17 on 8 shots because he repeatedly got to the line.

Randle with crazy hustle and hella good D on Young more often than I expected.

Hardly any of our guys ever looked gassed.

ATL blew a 4Q lead v. MIA the night before.
Two atrocious turnovers in the last 1:25.
Trae just lost his dribble 35 feet out.
Then down 4 with 25 secs left, Huerter feebly flicks the ball inbounds to avoid a 5 second count.
MIA got to all 50/50 balls, mostly PJ Tuck and Caleb Martian.
Trae didn't make a FG in the 4Q.  Just 4 FT's, and a late charge.

Sums up all that's wrong with Westbrook, in an Iversonian fashion.

Was last night the best performance of the year from the starters?

This was the idea, no? Multiple weapons. Hitting you from all sides. Each starter dangerous offensively (and I'm including Mitch here too!).

Have no idea if we'll see this again, but it's pleasurable to behold once in a while.

Hard to do without a PG ...

Interesting game.
Fourneir and Burks reasserted themselves when the Knix needed some extra scoring.
RJB is in a nice groove.  Randle rumbled around.

Bottom line: Hawks a poor defensive team.  Gave up open 3's, forays into the paint and fouled -- letting the Knix score form everywhere.

Gallo was making some big shots, but his D was feeble (for some reason wanting Randle to drive left) and some funky turnovers. 

Game ended and some Hawks, notably Hunter went over to chat with Reddish.  The Knix 2nd unit razzed Knox, the starters presumably didn't know him.  Seemed like ObiT stuck around the longest chatting with Knox.Knox basically unplayable until they get Capela back.  They can't put another weak defender out there. 

If many of the Hawks are etting tired of the Trae Show, Nate should let Bogdan run some possessions, somewhat like the Kings did with TyH (before making him the de facto PG).  Collins and Hunter need to be more involved in the O.  They can score.  And if everybody is a threat, then Huerter and Trae will get some easy open looks.
TRae - Bogdan - Hunter - Collins - Capela
That should be a powerhouse starting unit. Yeah, guys have missed time with injuries and viral issues, but they need cohesion.  And I don't see ditching Reddish as any help ...
