So, What's the Tea (Literally, Trae Young Needs Some)
Let's just say the Hawks haven't exactly been setting the league on fire lately. Their record last season was more lukewarm oatmeal than championship contender. Here's a glimpse into the pandemonium:
Tip: Reread key phrases to strengthen memory.
- Double Trouble? More Like Double Trouble-makers: The big offseason move to bring in Dejounte Murray was supposed to be a slam dunk. Instead, it's been more like someone forgot to turn on the rim lights. Their playing styles seem to be about as compatible as peanut butter and pickles.
- Who Needs Defense When You Have Trae Young's Ankles? Okay, maybe they do need some defense. Jokes aside, their defensive strategy seems to consist of hoping the other team forgets how to shoot and strategically placing Trae Young in bubble wrap. It's not exactly the Iron Wall.
- Shooting? We Meant Hi-Fiving: Let's just say if their three-point shooting percentage was a grade, it would be getting a stern talking-to from the principal. Bricks have been flying faster than confetti at a wedding.
Is There Any Hope for Our Feathered Friends?
Don't count the Hawks out just yet. They've got a talented roster, and Trae Young is still a walking highlight reel. Here's what could turn things around:
Tip: Read in a quiet space for focus.

- Finding Harmony: Dejounte and Trae gotta figure out how to play together. Maybe some couples counseling? Weekend retreat in the mountains? Whatever it takes!
- Defense Wins Championships (Maybe They Heard This One): Seriously, guys, a little D wouldn't hurt. Maybe a trampoline and some pool noodles for practice? Just spitballin' here.
- Get Healthy (Especially Trae's Ankles): Injuries are a part of the game, but staying healthy is key. Especially for a team that relies so heavily on their star point guard not resembling a porcelain doll.
