Kingston Flemings

And...

You mentioned he gets Kingston Flemings to fall for his typical thing, but probably could have got another one earlier in the game where they didn't call a shooting foul.

Not here to complain, but just kind of talking about, just kind of emphasizing for people who are like, this is a bad loss.

It's not a bad loss.

That's something that I have to be OK living and dying with.

But certainly, you know, Kingston Flemings has kind of been exceeding the knowledge of angles, in my opinion.

And what a phenomenal game.

You know, when you start talking about some of the different things that, you know, that the bench, right, has been able to do for this team.

And then the last thing is, um, or second thing, rather second and last thing in order for this team to be successful is to continue getting the kind of contribution and production out of the bench that it has entering on tonight, 215 bench points, uh, had 34 of those on tonight.

And, um, that second within the NBA only to Milwaukee.

But I love the idea of being able to see, you know, Kingston Flemings, Lou Dort, how about the fantastic play by Aaron Wiggins, 20.7 rebounds, who I've gone above and beyond over the hills to you know say that he has been the most consistent player that we have seen so far granted a very small sample size but most consistent player that we've seen in hawks uniform thus far looked really good maybe not a ton of points and scoring from jock landale but 10 rebounds i'm interested to see if that's going to be the second rotation right Kingston Flemings, Lou Dort, Aaron Wiggins, Jock Landale.

Who would you like to see as that fifth player? Just kind of curious to know from you guys.

Yeah.

Kelvin Sampson point guards feel like, like a Jamal shed or a Kingston Flemings, a big physical guy.

I mean, you know, like Kobe all feels talking about, you know, the guys will do the goal.

Once they pin you down, they could overwhelm you.

And I was sitting there like jaw dropped.

Kingston Flemings is making plays like guys kind of unsung guys like Rashir Fleming.

I'm a fan of him.

Like there's just so many dudes.

So that helped.

Kingston, second – very good game where I thought he was honestly their best on-ball creator, if we're honest.

Just the ease in which he's getting into the paint, shaking open three-point shooters.

It's a simple...

I thought, I thought Quinn really did everybody a disservice with what he was doing with CJ McCollum today.

Like no business closing, absolutely no business closing.

over either Wiggins or Kingston.

Like, and quite frankly, this is not, you know, this ain't a charity league.

And Atlanta ends up going on a 14-4 run.

to make it 35-30 with 5.30 left, and it felt like for Atlanta, after that three did fall for Jock, it just seemed like the second unit when they came in, whether that be Aaron Wiggins, Lou Dort, Kingston Flemings, you know, those guys really pushed the pace.

I thought Kingston Flemings was awesome in this game.

You know, if you look at the box score, it probably won't tell you that that much, but I thought that his drive and kick ability in this game was absolutely awesome

yeah the way the way that the hawks were able to pull down so many defensive rebounds in this game and run were key for this bench unit and aaron wiggins aaron wiggins caught fire it seems like we've been saying that for most of the podcasts early on in this season he's shooting the absolute cover off the ball right now and he had eight of atlanta's first 16 points in the second quarter two of those were triples and the hawks extended that 14 to 4 run to 21 to 6 and to tie the game after CJ gets a steal for an Inyeka Okonkwo layup.

The Hawks center play was a huge, huge reason I thought why they won this game overall.

And they carried a 99 to 93 lead with 735 left in the final frame.

And last game, you know, last night we talked a lot about Tim, about Kingston Flemings closing the game over CJ McCollum.

I think the Hawks, it just wasn't good offense.

It felt like the Hawks were struggling to create quality looks, which is why I mentioned that Kingston's development will be very important in terms of maybe improving that as the season goes on.

But I felt like they struggled to get quality looks in this game.

And so it made the offense harder.

But from that perspective, C.J. was not really good in this game.

I would have ended the game with Aaron Wiggins to me.

Either you're going back to Kingston or you're going back to Aaron.

And I think CJ came back in at like the eight-minute mark.

That is beautiful stuff from Giannis.

On this next one, we got... kind of a pick and roll i mean not quite uh literally a great role by yannis though is what this is a great example of because yannis is really not a great screen setter you know i've been hearing that for years and now that i'm watching him on this heat team you can tell because on this first screen here, he's not gonna really make contact with Kingston Flemings, but then he's gonna go on the other side to try to set a screen here.

But at this point, Davion has kind of a nice stutter here.

You see his nice stutter step here, which kind of throws Kingston Fleming off his feet.
