    I’ve never seen a player regress so badly in the middle of the season before. He was looking like he was gonna break the bank through December.

    Then the calendar flipped to January and he turned into a pumpkin

    It’s getting ugly… I’m about to give up on this game and hope the wizard gives our coach a brain, our team a heart and the nerve and we play well enough to go home after stealing a pair of ruby slippers… I mean a win on Tuesday

    Hawks traded him to save salary why will they take back DFS who makes 12M for the next two years?

    They’re asking him to play KD’s role. He’s surrounded by bricklayers.

    Yes. They'll blame coaching but Sengun's not a difference maker nor will ever be

    Tari Eason is giving you nothing, Tate is giving you nothing, Okogie gives you nothing, ...... nevermind Tari hit a three. Still....Udoka try some other guys. This is not working! JD Davison, DFS, Tristian Newton. Somebody sheesh.

    Awful. We are not scoring 16 points the rest of the game. Much less holding them to 0

    It is also on Stone for building this flawed squad and did nothing mid-season.
