The Hawks this year are kind of what the Magic were to us last season.
Personally, I don't really care about the actual wins/losses at this stage of the season, but more so how they look.
Unfortunately, there's two things that really stuck out to me which could be a major concern:
1. The last-second shots particularly iso-ball by Tatum. People have spent numerous pages discussing it already so I won't delve into it. But yeah, there needs to be other guys involved and potentially taking the shot or running plays instead of just constantly dribbling it down and then Tatum hoisting an iso-shot. Maybe the Jaylen shot attempt could have been drawn up better but hey, he took the shot and made it late to give us that brief 121-120 lead. Wasn't JT, they drew something up for Brown.
2. Porzingis really needs to be more physical AND we need to rebound better. There'll be times in the playoffs where you need to dive for loose balls, outmuscle guys and body them up. Porzingis is very talented and easily the best big we've had since KG, but I do wonder how he'll hold up against the more physical bigs in the playoffs (Embiid, Bam, Giannis, potentially even Jokic/KAT/Gobert). In close games that kind of stuff matters. Certainly did last night.
There are some other things like poor FT shooting in the clutch, Joe Mazzulla, the defense at times, etc. But if those two things don't get addressed it might not even matter. There will be close games in the playoffs and sometimes pivotal. Can't be giving up too many second chance points either, that'll kill us.
