I had the Hawks at No. 6 in my Power Rankings heading into training camp, which I think was higher than most preseason prognostications. Then I got some grief from a reader saying that I should have had you guys lower because the new rules designed to cut down on free throws awarded to players who initiate contact would affect your game greatly. How are you adjusting so far to the way games are being called?

Trae Young: I think it’s a more an adjustment on both sides, but also just me playing my game. I’ve been in a lot of meetings with [NBA head of referee training and development] Monty [McCutchen], trying to make sure of what’s a foul and what’s not. A lot of the [contract I draw] is a foul. Me going in front and stopping on a dime and defenders continuing to run into me, that’s still a foul. The league is good at that — being open to communicating about anything. Especially if a guy has questions. It’s not just me. I’m sure a lot of other guys have called and just tried to get more clarification on what’s a foul and what’s not.

So you’re not worried about a different sort of whistle this season affecting your game? Trae Young: Nah. I’m not, to be honest with you, even thinking about the refs and the foul calls. I can score without the free throws. But I’m a smaller guy, so a lot of guys like to be physical with me. I like using their aggression to my advantage. That’s really what it is.

Rylan Stiles: Mark Daigneault on matching the warriors 3 point shooting “it’s more can we set a physical tone, slow them down, I think for a team that’s younger we do have a nice awareness of the length of the game. Knowing If you’re down by ten points you don’t need 4 threes right away”

Rylan Stiles: Mark Daigneault said he’s excited to see Lu Dort on Steph Curry. “Curry was hurt Lu’s rookie year. Last year late in the season was the only time Lu ever played against him and got the best of Lu. And Lu isn’t one to just accept that” said he is excited to see Lu’s response.
