Here is a complete list of the Hawks players who have more points than Taurean Prince in this series against the Wizards:
Paul Millsap
Dennis Schroder
The Hawks won this game, but that list is not a good sign. It’s way too short! Even worse, looking at their roster, there aren’t even that many players who should definitely have more points than him. Howard, probably Ilyasova, probably Hardaway, Bazemore??? The Hawks have a lot of pretty-okay players, but it would help them if they had a legit third option. Why are they ignoring Howard in this series again? Look at his shoulders. Those are the shoulders of a winner.
Obviously, I’ve been very impressed with how Prince (who looks like Tony Snell BTW) has played this series. If you’re gonna be able to pick and choose when to have the best three-game stretch of your career, the first three games of the playoffs are a good time for it.
