@btrowland.bsky.social There’s something about the Risacher situation that we don’t understand and I believe it goes deeper than money.

@arimelber.bsky.social What type of country do we live in where a man can be killed in cold blood and our leaders, on either side of the political spectrum, can’t say that it’s wrong? Please stop bringing these wastes of flesh on your show.
@btrowland.bsky.social Somebody said Jaylen was grimacing. Do you know if he’s okay?
@btrowland.bsky.social What’s your take on Malik Williams down in College Park?
@btrowland.bsky.social Now Brad, I’m not the sharpest knife in the drawer, so I need to explain to me how every single night, if we breathe on the other team’s guys they’re headed for the free throw line, but they can draw blood on us and there’s nary a whistle. Explain it to me. Use small words.
@btrowland.bsky.social Little bit of dirty pool bringing Embiid in at the last second. We could have really used Porzingis tonight…
@btrowland.bsky.social Annnd here we go again.
@btrowland.bsky.social Okay so we’re just going to have to live with that lineup, but, one more quarter like the last one and we walk out with a dub.
@btrowland.bsky.social Here’s the thing, Quinn’s not stupid. He’s run that lineup out there enough times to KNOW that it doesn’t work, especially defensively. I just don’t get what he’s trying to prove.
@btrowland.bsky.social This line up simply does not work.
@btrowland.bsky.social So, what about Chris Paul? The Clippers aren’t using him. He’d be a solid backup for Trae and we could probably get him for a bag of chips and a carton of Luckies.
@btrowland.bsky.social That fall didn’t look good. I’m glad ZR was able to walk off though.
@btrowland.bsky.social I think we need to keep the ball out of Booker’s hands. Maybe Brooks and Gellespie can beat us, but I know Booker can.
@btrowland.bsky.social Okay Brad, time to see how much this team has really grown up. Too many times over the last few years when the whistle has gone against this team, they’ve lost focus and fallen apart. The whistle has been decidedly in Phoenix’s favor. Let’s see if they can play through it.
@btrowland.bsky.social Dillon Brooks doing DB thangs. He’s one of those guys that gets in your head. Makes you want to forget about the game and kick his backside. That’s when he’s at his best.
@btrowland.bsky.social Serious question Brad where is all this Trae hate coming from? Ja is out a lot EVERY season, Memphis wins without him, but there is never this wholesale “we’re better without Morant so let’s broom him now!” sentiment like what’s happening among the Atlanta fanbase with Trae.
@btrowland.bsky.social You know, if you had told me three weeks ago, after Trae went down that Atlanta would be 8-5 at this point in the season, I probably would have laughed in your face, but here we are!
@btrowland.bsky.social Perimeter defense has left something to be desired, but you can’t argue with the offense.
@btrowland.bsky.social Oh to be a superstar in the NBA! You can step on a guy’s foot and get free throws. Then get a four point play on minimum contact. Nice life if you can get it.
@btrowland.bsky.social You have to get the ball out Hardin’s hands. He’s the only one on the court for them that can beat you.
@btrowland.bsky.social Ever notice how there are some players that you can barely breathe on and the whistle is almost automatic, but Trae can get absolutely manhandled and the whistle gets swallowed.
@btrowland.bsky.social I’m going to go on and say it, I thought tonight was going to be yet another one of those Staple Center beat downs, and while there’s still a lot of time, as of half time, Atlanta’s given themselves a chance.
@btrowland.bsky.social Yeah, the way they’re shooting and the way we’re not, I think the goal is to not be down double digits at half time.
@btrowland.bsky.social Just a little added context to the game. Luka scored 12 points in the first quarter. He scored TEN the rest of the game. Now, to be fair, Luka missed a lot of shots, but the Hawks had a plan for him and they executed it. Teams are going to be looking at what they did.
@btrowland.bsky.social I’ll tell you something else about Mo. He has an edge on him. He’s one of those guys that just doesn’t back down. We need that edge.
@btrowland.bsky.social And Atlanta’s early season bugaboo rears its ugly head again, the inability to end a good defensive possession with a rebound, and as per usual, the other team takes advantage.
@btrowland.bsky.social Annnd here comes the whistle for the Cavs.
@btrowland.bsky.social Trae just posted a fairly cryptic post on threads…

@btrowland.bsky.social Here’s the thing, I’m going to be out tomorrow in my Hawks hoodie and my Hawks cap because that’s what I do, win or lose. What’s tough is having heard all offseason about how good this team should be and then they screw the pooch twice in one week.
@btrowland.bsky.social This is a team that we should be running off the floor, and yet a win tonight is looking more and more unlikely or at least will come more and more of a surprise.

@btrowland.bsky.social I just wanted to highlight that what Atlanta has done in this fourth quarter, against Orlando, has been done without Porzingis and ZR…
@btrowland.bsky.social First off let me be really clear when I say that Coach Q has forgotten more about basketball than I’ll ever hope to know. That being said, I don’t understand sitting JJ and Dyson for both of the last two preseason games, unless they’re a little dinged up.

@resistrebelrevolt.net Seriously, I don’t know where some of the folks on social media come from, but it must be damp.
@305miami6924.bsky.social My Falcons just brought in Simeon Barrow to the practice squad. Any insights?
@305miami6924.bsky.social You know, I thought yall had this game won and then I switch back to it right before I go to sleep and it’s all tied up…. Gotta say though, that was one hell of a catch.
