I thought it was going to be different this year at 10-4. I wanted to maintain that 2 wins to 1 loss pace, that would mean we are the real deal. But damn... we need a 8 game win streak now to get back to that pace. Ain't happening. Another play-in year, and by the looks of thing, we may not even be a play-in squad soon. Atlanta been playing crazy... I think it's another spanking. Sorry.. Debbie Downer in the building! LOL!

I really prefer more spankings and embarrassment, maybe even miss the play in. Instead of this borderline play-in tease every year that allows Jeanie to maintain status quo.

If they crap the bed and lose by 20+ again I'll have to take a break from this team. December is cold, cloudy and foggy and I don't need the Lakers playing like my rec squad.

LeBron James is on the injury report as Questionable (Bronny James has been upgraded). Austin Reaves is out and won’t play in Atlanta.

(Yes JHS is also still listed as Out)

They probably want to give LeBron a rest for a game or 2 not injury related

Yep, similar to the blow out losses with him.

Going to bet on Hawks -4.5 since this has blowout loss written over it and also some Jalen Johnson prop bets too since I expect him to have a monster game against this putrid defense.

If Bron doesn't play it might improve their chances. But ATL is probably his favorite place to play and he usually shows out so who knows. Likely rests against Portland instead.

We have a huge break coming up. He needs to play- we need wins.

If Bron doesn't play and the rest of our guys produce like they did last game, we might lose by 60. Somebody has to step up on offense.

It’s pretty remarkable how average Kencht has looked, I think the expectations and the LA bright lights are starting to effect how he’s approaching the game
