Hawks scored here off a Dejounte Murray isolation, but look at the lack of movement when Trae or Dejounte don’t have the ball. Would like to see those guys stressing the defense more. pic.twitter.com/AcYuz2xP3u – 7:57 PM

Malachi Flynn’s doing exactly what he needs to do:
Stay ready, be productive when your number is called
No, he doesn’t need to play 18 minutes every game, he’s just gotta play well when he’s needed
As he has
Raptors up 7 going to the fourth – 7:55 PM

89-82 Raps after 3. Getting contributions from everywhere, overcame a pretty listless start to the half.
I wonder if VanVleet gets put on to Hunter down the stretch – 7:55 PM

4 straight quality games for Malachi Flynn (with a DNP-CD sandwiched in between). Over that stretch: 45 points, 9-18 3P, +31 in 66 minutes. – 7:54 PM

A deliberate alignment to get Collins against a small vs. a zone defense from the Raptors. Netted 2 FTAs. pic.twitter.com/8IczA6Il6D – 7:32 PM

HALF: Raptors 62, Hawks 55
Frustrating final seconds for the Hawks. Refs called Trae Young for a foul. They said he stuck his leg out. Then the Hawks tried to block Scottie Barnes’ layup at the buzzer and are called for a goal tend. – 7:07 PM

Raptors up 7 after a good first half; hang 62 on the Hawks with a makeshift group
Couple of things to clean up but they gotta feel good about where they are – 7:06 PM

Raps 62-55. Really solid, focussed half, despite struggles dealing with Capela inside, as you’d expect. Really good in his role: Juancho Hernangomez. – 7:06 PM

Safe to say Anunoby’s been the Raptors’ best player since Siakam went down. From there? FVV, Boucher & Banton have been good when healthy, Juancho & Flynn solid in their mins. But their 2nd-best player over this stretch: Thad Young. So consistently good in just about every facet. – 6:59 PM

If I’m John Collins, I’d be bored too. Even if they are pick-and-roll happy, I think the Hawks should at least get some early ball movement to let some more guys touch the ball to start possessions. But the Hawks are pretty good without my advice. – 6:50 PM

Scottie to end the first quarter
– denies pass to corner, picks up on ball, contests at the rim
– knocks down spinning three pointer
– hustles back after shot to deny hit ahead, then hustles to Trae and pressures just enough to make the shot late

After bouncing back vs Miami the other night, Barnes is picking up where he left off. Some great passing so far, including and especially that dime to Thad at the rim. – 6:42 PM

Fun quarter. 5 different Raptors players scored in that 1st Q and all 5 had at least 6 points. They lead 31-29, with Scottie Barnes hitting a wild runner from 26-feet out just before the buzzer. – 6:39 PM

1Q: Raptors 31, Hawks 29
Hawks’ turnovers definitely hurt them this quarter. Raptors scored 6 points off 6 Hawks turnovers.
Raptors guard Scottie Barnes hit a contested 3 w/ .6 seconds left in the quarter.
Young/Capela 8 pts each. – 6:38 PM
