I may be in the minority, probably for sure, but I would like to re-sign the guys that are up for FA.  I'm not a number cruncher, and don't know if it's possible.  Gives me a headache.  I like our team the way it's shaped.  We're showing results on the floor.  Finish the year, and give Bud's system another year, we could be really good.  The East is bad, we can compete with anyone.  I'd say the Cavs or Toronto are the cream of the crop, perhaps Washington...but we all saw what we did to Cleveland on their home court.....

Best win of the year.... Sure Mack was smoking. However, the Hawks executed sets and plays, to get easy looks. Great coaching. We just completely a favorite in the East.

Honestly, since the remarks and the days afterward, I haven't heard a peep about it. It might be buried.  Why dig it up? He made a bad mistake, apologized, Deng responded accordingly and... I think that may be it, right or wrong.  Pro Sports is a what have you done for me lately memory...I think we need to keep Danny.  He screwed up, who doesn't?

Except miss free throws

Sap doesn't do anything wrong. I've said it before... Yellow hard cap, lunch pail, keeps his mouth shut, and works. I hope we keep up this momentum, but if so, he deserves to make a cameo in the AS game. No disrespect to Horf or Jeff

While I love the start, it's too early... The coaching is great, talent is there... But the jury is out.

Jeff and Dennis are both young, and getting better. Their ceiling's are way up there. Good problem to have.

While Dennis has shown vast improvement, he's fine in is role now. Kyle May not be tearing it up, but he opens things for his team.

Let's just hope Pop continues to have the zest to coach and Tim and Manu keep avoiding Father Time.

Nothing. Point made. But Ward should haved picked one professional sport, and worked on that....

It's two different sports. You can't combine a PG to a Qb

The health issue is the elephant in the room. I think Westbrook might have more talent, albeit not much... I think Westbrook benefits by having the first or second best player in the league next to him. I vote for JT

There is zero guarantee that we will get to re-sign Millsap. Trading Horford could be catastrophic.

Right now.

 

 

My feeling is that Horf won't be the same Horf for a while.  Maybe ever.  We are coming to the end of Sap's contract with us and we have to make the right decision on how things will go.

 

Bud is acting GM right now, but this may be our chance.

 

There are some schools of thought:

 

Trade Al for a established player Asik and a pick...?

Trade Al for a shot in the lottery and go after Towns or Okafur?

Keep Al and Sap?

Keep Al and trade Sap?

 

What will happen?  Who knows.  My guess is nothing.

I don't think we will trade him, and honestly his stock is as low as it's been in his entire career. Horf has been my favorite player for years, and still is.... But, he and Sap, Scott still aren't gelling. But, hell.. We've won 6 of 8, so I can't hate ....

Nice win on the road vs. a good team. Let's see we do at home vs. a better team on a back to back???

I would be happy with this as well as long as the wins are over Washington and Charlotte. 3-1 would be icing on the cake and 1-3 will make for a crappy Thanksgiving week.

I'm not too concerned yet.... I watch and follow. My brain is still in football mode. It's early, but I don't want us to dig a hole.

I'd take 2-2 during this stretch. Tough teams, but keep us over .500.

No. ISO players may win you games. They don't win the team anything else.... Don't we know this??????

He can pass. He's unselfish. He's obviously athletic. He rebounds. He's not a good shooter, and he makes bad decisions. But if he's not playing, on the floor, you ask... Why???

He's joe Johnson , 2.0. Maybe 3.0. Maybe worse.... Best of luck Lou, but we're better....

Our Hawks are desperate for a championship, if we win one we need to all get together and have drinks :-)And those under age folks...martinellis apple cider

Oh hell, if it happens, my arse is on a plane that night....

I don't necessarily miss him...but I think his time in Atlanta ran its course. He was kinda of an enigma for . He needed to be on floor, but frustrating at the same time.

I... Sorry....

I'll take a double digit win any night. If don't care who we play....

Bud is not going to tank. He's been groomed to fill a philosophy of teamwork on defense, and sharing the ball on offense. For 20 years. Lou was the exact opposite.
