We eat so many shrimp I got iodine poisoning
Go ahead and shut him down smh
Quick question
What was going on with the hawks in 2020-2021?
They were the 5th seed with a 41-31 record lol
That season was weird since it was a quick turnaround from the bubble and then there were no fans
Outside of them being the 5th seed that fluke year:
14th seed (year before)
9th seed
8th seed
10th seed (this year)

Rockets gave it a nice try
They are a grizzlies disasterclass this season away from being the 13th seed
They made progress so that’s something to feel great about but objectively they are a bad team that’s gonna have to work really hard to become even a top 10 team in the west
when the lakers, suns, warriors are gone in 2 years, they’ll have their shot

I don’t see the need to hang onto this current core/trae if it’s not yielding results
Sell high and move on and get in position for cooper flagg

Most players weren't into it so younger teams were able to make some noise
Do you feel like Trae/hawks are still living off of that 1 season when they severely overachieved and made the conf finals?
Also imagine being the bucks and you just have to beat the hawks to make the finals lol
Who else would you say
Lakers this year. The in season tourney win kinda made them feel like they didn't have to make any moves at the deadline to upgrade the roster. Hit by the injury bug for sure but the hope that once everyone gets healthy, they'll get it back working
Pelicans play in run with the eventual loss to Phoenix in 6. No Zion and they thought if they can just be healthy. While they have landed on most of their picks since the AD trade, they keep hoping on health to get them past the first round. They haven't cashed in on any assets to move/acquire anyone.
You mentioned Atlanta
Hmmm... Maybe Chicago as well?
Don’t agree with the lakers really since the IST stuff was all media but agree with the pelicans
lol Chicago would have to achieve first to overachieve
The play in tricks teams a bit but if you Adam silver I guess that’s what you want
My thought wasn't a dig at the Lakers but I do think management looked at that win in the tourney and thought they had just enough to compete without addressing some player fit issues in addition to the unlucky health issue
Maybe with Chicago I'm thinking that they aren't bad enough to tank but definitely not good enough to win so management just keeps trying the same thing hoping for a different result

Yes. They literally live off "beating " a team starting Elfrid Payton and Reggie Bullock as focal points
Fuck the Hawks the team you've seen since then is who they are.
Well I’m expanding my scope a bit to a larger scale
My example was the hawks have been a team that was
5th
9th
8th
10th
With 3 coaches since 2020
Yet they still field a team with Clint capela, Trae young, and Deandre hunter on it
Maybe it’s because boosie and Quavo come to games to watch Trae and they want the ticket sales but there’s nothing by the hawks that says this team should stay this way
Like it’s the same but different
Also as far as the lakers I don’t think they saw the IST win and said everything is good because the IST was structured in a way where you not even playing the best teams really. Just who’s winning regular season games at the moment
As far as the bulls they just can’t do anything to improve so they seem content on trying to get the 8th seed and losing in the first
in a kick the can down the road kinda way

Bulls need to nuke that squad
I'm going to need you two to stay out of Chicago business.
