One of the more insane quarters I’ve seen. We played great but the Bulls also had a complete meltdown
The Hawks have 50 (yes, 50) points in the fourth quarter.

I take this post back. Oh my goodness
It’s hard to win when this is happening. Sometimes it’s just not your night.
The Hawks had a 150-ish offensive rating in the third quarter....
.... and lost the quarter by 6 points.

Costco has 7% annual staff turnover (93% retention), an incredibly loyal and respected customer base, solid quality, and refuses to change its food court pricing much beyond what it was 3 decades ago. It’s the third largest retailer in the country. Capitalism doesn’t have to be cruel.
All I'm saying is ain't no one hunting this man down. And I guarantee you he's not starving. You can be a CEO and still be wealthy and not fuck your customers over for a few extra nickels in the pockets of your investors.

A grandmother, her 2 infant grandchildren, and their mother were shot and killed by the grandmother’s boyfriend in Georgia on Saturday. We should be talking about that sort of gun violence too.

There’s reason for optimism.
But it’s also the hope that kills you.
Going to enjoy this run though!

The last 7 months for the Hawks:
Won the no. 1 draft pick.
Swindled the Pels to get Dyson and 2 firsts for Dejounte.
Jalen Johnson looks like a dang All-Star. Dyson looks like a dang DPOY. De'Andre Hunter looks...fixed?
Yeah, there's been some bad, but I might have to drop my cynical shtick.
