wow that euro step by bags!

 

[SLAB]

Aggressive JJacks.

 

[Tetsujin]

maybe more 80's he would be a HOF

You're probably right. I could see him having a Bill Laimbeer-esque career.

 

[Kingz19]

JJ’s one handed runner is actually pretty automatic to his credit.

 

[Ozymandias]

Signs of life from Justin Jackson! Nice defensive possession followed by an and1.

 

[SLAB]

This team y’all.

 

[The Hammer]

All I can say right now is WOW.

 

[Kingz19]

The Hawks suck

Knock on wood

 

[KingKong]

Kings are officially good again!

 

[Ozymandias]

De'Andre Fox lives again!!! The Hawks announcer just called him that twice on that dunk play.

 

[Kingfanpaul]

Just heard the first De'Andre Fox of the night lol.

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

That's why give me Yogi over Mason.

 

[Tetsujin]

Shump's intensity/being a crazy person-ness has started permeating the team.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Nah, way too many superstar caliber centers in the 80s. Early nineties was right in the sweet spot between when those guys started to decline, and Shaq took over. Around '91, it was pretty much Dream, Admiral, Ewing, and a bunch of stiffs. A handful of those coaches' selections that went to Tyrone Hill and Kevin Duckworth in the early 90s would probably have gone to a guy like Koufos.

 

[PurpleHaze]

The Raiders suck, the Niners suck. I'm not switching channels. GO KINGS!!

 

[SacTownKid]

The last time we saw a team with this kind of confidence in their own play that kept playing through their mistakes was 2006?

 

[Ozymandias]

The Hawks are on pace of an INSANE amount of turnovers. Trae Young is up to 5 already in 10 minutes.

 

[The Hammer]

That's why give me Yogi over Mason.

Man... Yogi, Shumpert, Bjelica... pretty darn good pickups by Vlade.

 

[Larry89]

Our speed on the perimeter and ability to trap and cut off passing lanes is causing a huge amount of turnovers. Our big men aint too shabby either. Reminds me of how the Miami Heat used to play D with Bosh/Wade/Lebron

It would depend on if Kosta has the benefit of modern conditioning as he does now or if he were being trained by 80's-era chase a chicken around a yard and lift this sack of flour trainers.

 

[Kingsfan2002]

WCS is at 0.3 blks per game. It really looks like he's not even trying sometimes on defense. he jumps from the foul line for dunks but refuses to jump on defense.

his rebounding is waaaaaay better this year but 0.3 blks is crazy bad

 

[Kingz19]

Yogi making things happen

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Atlanta gets defensive rebounds like they're trying to figure out in real time which one of them is going to do it. You sort of see 2-3 of them standing in a circle around the ball, watching it fall to the court and bounce back up, before one of them decides to pick it up, like they're trying to convince themselves that the ball doesn't have cooties, or something.

 

[Tetsujin]

PROFESSOR BIG SHOTS

 

["The Serbian Sniper"]

Yogi boxing out the big man. Love to see that ! I like Yogi

 

[The Hammer]

I simply cannot believe how many positives I'm seeing. And it's more than just the pace and offense. I'm seeing proper boxing out, proper passing, proper pick and roll execution, decent PnR defense... and that's just the technical stuff. ALL the intangibles are there.

 

[SLAB]

DEFOX

 

[Kingz19]

Sick move by Fox

 

[Ozymandias]

Beastly and-1 from Fox, he caught em sleeping 30-feet from the basket and they never recovered!!!

 

[Kingsfan2002]

WCS tries for a blk!
