4 games into the season and this makes 11 MAJOR INJURIES all at least multiple months of time missed WHAT IS GOING ON

Jabari Smith Jr picks up his 4th foul on the inbound and sends OO to the line with a chance to cut the deficit to 5 with 36.5 seconds to play

Quin Snyder’s challenge is successful

Houston takes a timeout to challenge a Jabari Smith Jr shooting foul. Hawks trail 115-100 with 3:29 left to play

Hawks have 7 fast break points compared to Rockets’ 14. Hawks can’t buy a stop on the defensive end tonight. Uphill battle all game long Dyson Daniels comes in with 7:15 left in the game to try and give Atlanta a last chance spark

Atlanta takes a timeout with 8:49 left in the game and down 19. Hawks can’t make a shot and can’t get a stop. Just one of those nights

An absolutely unreal circus play there to end the 3Q. Jalen Johnson gets the tip in to cut the deficit to 11 headed into the 4Q Hawks heated up from 3 in the later half of the 3Q. This game is well within reach still

Rockets just got 4 offensive rebounds on the same possession that led to a layup. Bogdan Bogdanovic hits a 3 to extend Houston’s lead to 20 and Quin Snyder is forced to take a timeout with 3:54 left in the 3Q Hawks are playing very poorly so far tonight

Houston’s defense is starting to sag off of Jalen Johnson. Hawks are now 5-27 from 3

Timeout Atlanta with 8:58 left to go in the 3Q. Hawks are desperate to find some made shots right now. Atlanta is 5-25 from 3. NAW is 4-8 from 3 Rest of the Hawks are 1-17 from 3

A Jalen Johnson interception on Durant leads to a NAW slam over Durant on the other end. Hawks then force a 24 second shot clock violation on the other end

Atlanta heads into the locker room at halftime down 59-48. Missed shots have hurt the Hawks so far. Atlanta is shooting just 5-22 (23%) from 3 compared to Houston’s 9-20 (45%)

24 second shot clock violation leads to Houston calling a timeout with 2:51 left in the 2Q. Houston leads 51-44 with the Hawks getting the ball out of the timeout

This is a first for me… Tari Eason picked up a technical foul whilst sitting on the scorers table. That’s is the 3rd technical foul issued so far in tonight’s game
