00:00Speaking of issues, let's go east to Hotlanta, where they were playing great ball, and then Trae Young came back.

00:09And now the nose dive is here.

00:11The Hawks have lost six straight games since Trae Young was injured, or as I should say, came back to the lineup,

00:20to the point where today, earlier today, as reported by Yahoo Sports,

00:26all signs point to Atlanta moving on from Trae Young ahead of the February 5th deadline,

00:31with the team indicating they're looking for an exit ramp for the Hawks point guard.

00:37Oh my God. Oh my God. Guess what?

00:40JY called it, literally, before the season.

00:44I wish we could pull back the videotape, but if you go to, I think it could have been the season premiere,

00:48I said that the most player with the most amount of pressure was Trae Young.

00:54And if they weren't a top-six team, that they would have to shuffle the deck.

00:59And someone was going to get moved.

01:01And the person they were going to have to move was Trae Young.

01:05Well, guess what?

01:06There is not a talent problem.

01:09There is a cohesion problem in Atlanta.

01:12Defensive lapses negate good offensive nights.

01:17Too many stretches of just reactive, not good basketball.

01:21So, when you look at it, Atlanta's going to make a move because of the play of Jalen Johnson as of late,

01:28of Akongwu as of late, and the Great Barrier Reef, Dyson Daniels.

01:33They're going to have to make moves.

01:35The Hawks don't lack talent.

01:37They lack alignment.

01:38Look for major moves with Trae Young, possibly Zachary Rishishay,

01:44and maybe even Kristaps Porzingis being moved before the February 5th deadline as the Hawks are reeling.
