Guys, this is our lowest shooting half the season. It can't get any worse!
Happens to coincide with the first game of the playoffs.  What are the odds?

Maybe we should try Smart in Millsap...
I'm bitter.

As bad as they've looked I don't feel this game is over. We'll see the first 5 or 6 minutes how this plays out in the 2nd half.

Going to be tough, but you can't really count this group out. All it takes is a couple turnovers or a couple three's to get this team going. IT and Crowder need to turn it up

Crowder both can't shoot and can't really attack and create offense right now.  I think that's the biggest thing missing.

I think we need to play Olynyk a lot.  We just need the shooting desperately.

I think shots start falling and this would be closer but still not playing well at all.  IT needs help and space though.

IT is neutralized.    He has nothing

ATL is making him go right which is not so good at.  He can't get his shooting going if he doesn't get the feel of the ball going through, at the FT line

smart
It's a lot easier to focus your defense on IT when no one else can make a shot.  I wouldn't draw too many conclusions based on one half - granted an awful half.

Wow. Shooting 23%, down 17 at half. I'll take it.
Wuh?

Pretty clear this team doesn't have a star.

Yep, another disappearing act by IT with everyone else disappearing with him.

The last several weeks have really challenged my fandom for this particular team. Going young is increasingly sounding good, especially with some higher picks coming from Brooklyn.

IT is showing me he's a guy that cannot be counted on the playoffs.
Overreact much?

IT is terrible..
he needs help. No spacing for him.

He's been absolutely terrible himself. 2-8, 0-3 from 3, 3 TOs in the half? That's pretty terrible, but so has everyone else.
Yeah. Smart and Crowder probably killed us the most there. Jerebko and Turner were no help either. Jerebko had a brick that looked like it was going to bounce back to half court he bricked it so bad.

Yeah, but this shouldn't come as a surprise.

We discussed regular season vs playoff basketball and how the pace would slow down. Atlanta is being very careful with the ball, which makes sense since 'every possession matters.'

Toss in the fact that we can't hit a shot or hold on to the ball and things would have to flip drastically for the Cs to come out winners (in the game and series).

I hope they switch  their gears in the 2nd half. This is embarrassing.

We got some people here who just have an anti-Isaiah agenda.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about
