It’s not even debatable at this point right? Knowing what we know now you’d much rather have Kawhi and SGA plus the picks and the season of Gallo than Paul George in a perfect world? Obvious Kawhi had his demands but what a missed opportunity. – 12:18 AM

Trae Young: “When we take 3’s and when we get to the hole and get layups, or floaters in the paint, it’s the best thing for us. That was a big emphasis, especially coming into the game tonight. We wanted to really play fast and get some 3’s up.” – 11:22 PM

Neither the Hawks (29-29) nor the Wizards (16-16) missed a free throw in tonight’s game.
It’s the most combined free throws made in a game without a miss in NBA history. – 10:36 PM

It’s nice to just know PJW is a center, but it’s a problem for Charlotte that he can’t play down a position. Mins crunch, team gets crushed on glass, Miles needs to play 4, etc. – 9:49 PM

Atlanta’s trapping hard and packing it in on the weakside. The Wizards are making the right-ish reads, but the timing is off when they do. Inaccurate passes, etc. A sign of a team without an elite passer — and one whose best one is struggling big time. – 9:10 PM

Something I’m watching tonight in Wizards v. Hawks:
Both teams top-5 in rebounds (WAS 4th, ATL 2nd)…
Washington is 4th in the NBA with their starting center averaging 4 boards – FOUR!
Gafford is 6th on the team in rebounds behind Kuzma, Harrell, Beal, Dinwiddie, & Avdija. – 7:23 PM

If the Wizards win tonight in Atlanta, they would improve to 6-1, which would be the franchise’s best start to a season since the NBA and ABA merged for the 1976-77 season. The 2005-06 Wizards and 1989-90 Bullets started their seasons 5-2. The 1974-75 Bullets started 7-0. – 4:49 PM

With referees enforcing foul rules differently this year, NBA games are averaging the fewest free throws (20.0/g per team) in the league’s 75-year history.
Interestingly enough, the Wizards are averaging the most (25.2/g) of any team. – 2:03 PM
