I have a feeling I’m gonna hate that little c*** for the next decade.
Our sideline out of bounds plays haven't been sucked all year!!! No mosdirections or nothing!!
That last play was straight up dookie.
Kid from Oklahoma enters the brightest lights in the NBA and comes up big. Now we gotta find a way to win game two and then get homeport back.
Julius was awful all night long. This one is on him.
Clyde said it 100 times, stop letting him get to the right. For the life of me I don’t know why they don’t foul the kid hard.
Fought tough.
I'd rather have IQ attempt one from long distance than that crap Randle put up.
All I know is 6-24 fg shooting loss the Knicks game !!!
can't blame Frank!! Trae had it going in the 4th. Outside of a trap, nobody was stopping Trae at that point.

Elfeid was bad but he’s always like that. Wanna blame someone? Our all-star and his number 2 were nothing tonight. Nothing. We were close only because Burks and Rose kept us in there, but wow, what a pathetic showing from our main guys.
4 seed my behind. Home advantage already gone. Great job.

Could have use more Frank simply to break up Trae's flow
Randle has to pass better when doubled or better to play smallball without him - we play too slow
Why no Bullock on last play - 0.9 only catch and shoot
Losing by 2 pts hurts worse than getting blow out
We'll regroup!
Yeah , putting in Frank when Young has all the confidence at the end of the game ... Noone was able to break his flow, we had zero answer for Young

Ohh, I can blame Frank and Payton and Randle and Thibs....

We better foul him so hard that he can't shoot FTs.
All in all, this was a bit disappointing but we knew from the start that Trae Young and this Hawks team was no joke. Our two best players had stinkers but we kept it close. I get that this is Randle's first postseason but he can't be doing this. 6-24 isn't very becoming at all. I've been hammering this point for a long time that he needs to stop settling for those stupid inefficient long twos especially when they're arn't falling and now its cost us in game 1. All good though. Just needs to get his head right for game two.

Actually, I can. He had one job and he got abused.
I don't like our offense outside of when Randle is playing like a basketball player. If it's not for Rose, Burks or Quickly going nuts one on one we have like no plays at all. Our only play is a high PNR without the roll. Only to free up the ballhandler
The difference was that miracle Bojan 3.

That's fair.

I'm not even mad that Trae scored, its the fact that he got a shot off that was just as easy if not easier than the ones he was making all game.

Yep, no plan for him. The Hawks did their homework and neutralized Randle to the point he was a wreck even when not guarded.
Wow, I can’t get over how pathetic our two supposed stars were. I’m so mad 😡

Not even a miracle. He's been like that since he's been in the league.
