Frenzy

I won't be able to sleep tonight,thanks alot

link we literally almost had him Quote: The Warriors seriously considered giving up second-year guard Monta Ellis in order to move up in Thursday's NBA draft, but they never pulled the trigger, the Times has learned. According to a league source, the Warriors had a deal on the table that would send Ellis to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for the No. 11 overall pick. The move up in the draft presumably would have been a first step toward getting one of the most promising players in the draft, Chinese forward Yi Jianlian.

Quote: If Phoenix was all for this trade, don't you think it would be best to act like they are to try and squeeze a little more out of the Hawks/T-Wolves. It's like buying an apartment .. you don't want the landlord to think you love it or else you can't get a better deal. i agree

i really hope it goes down

Quote: Can we make an agreement on draft day with the Suns and Wolves to make a trade on July 1 and have a GUARANTEE that they won't change their minds? i know,if we draft for them and they change their minds we're basically screwed,lol

Quote: Quote: Wow, so only one deal involves a superstar? I think that's what you said. Not sure, lol. Your definition of superstar and mine might vary. Just to throw a name out there free of any speculation I would not consider Elton Brand a superstar just a star player. oh good

I want Amare!

Quote: Quote: yea, Luke would be good for us. He can create, and he can score on his own when he needs to. I;ve always liked him. Plus he's got one of those great names to yell where it sounds like your booing. I can hear it in Phillips now as he drains a three....LuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKE!!!! He's exactly what we need. he's young. he's experienced. He is READY!!! haha. and it doesnt cost us chills or marvin, who need to stay in the ATOWN people! I think Joe,Josh,Marvin,and Chills are vital to our long-term success. and in that order. they all need to stay Go Hawks!! You are delusional.

(explicit), i don't want Ridnour!

Quote: Quote: Quote: If we can get Amare we have to do it. fixed word on the Raps board is that Calderon is available for Childress so i don't think it is unrealistic to get Amare and a pg. Even with Amare we aren't going anywhere without a quality pg. true,true

Quote: Theo, Wally Z, Speedy, Jefferson, and #3 to Minny. KG to LAL Bynum, Odom, Hudson, and #19 to Phoenix. Amare to Memphis. Gasol, Marvin, Korver to Boston. Kurt Thomas,Radman #5 to Philly. #4,#12, Dalembert, Carney to Atlanta. i would do that

Quote: I'm not real sure why you think the Hawks new color scheme is bad but the Braves color scheme is excellent. It's the exact same colors. That's one of the biggest reasons I like the color scheme. The Hawks match the Braves now, and they no longer look like a bunch of McDonald's workers. thank you,i didn't understand that either,about saying the Braves scheme is excellent and the hawks is bad

LOL!

lol,who are you?

Quote: Jack (Atlanta): Are the Hawks crazy if they pass on Al Horford? All I hear are good things. John Hollinger: (2:35 PM ET ) I was in awe of Horford when I was at the Final Four, because it seemed he had no weaknesses. He did everything well, and I think he's going to be a beast in the pros. So yes, I'm hoping Atlanta takes him at No. 3. Quote: Bob (Atlanta) : Does Horford start right away for the Hawks? Everyone is knocking them for (probably) taking another forward, but he's as big as Pachulia, right? John Hollinger: (2:47 PM ET ) Horford wouldn't start at the 5, if that's what you mean. I'd imagine Atlanta would have to (finally) look at trading one of their forwards at that point, perhaps Marvin Williams since so many other teams still seem to like him. interesting

Quote: (Law's previous position: No. 19 to L.A. Lakers) The skinny: We keep hearing the Hawks will address the point guard situation with this pick one way or the other. The early word was that the team was high on Javaris Crittenton, but after Law's workout last week, it now looks like Law has moved into the lead. Law doesn't have the upside of Crittenton but he's much more NBA ready. Rodney Stuckey looks like he has moved into the picture for Atlanta as well. i would love to get either Law or Critt,don't know about Stuckey though

Quote: It appears from the above picture that Billy might be staging the unthinkable - he's prepping to draft *HIMSELF* nooooooooooo!

does anybody know if we'll have an alternate or not?Maybe silver or Red

Quote: Time for a class action suit against the Keebler Elves. lol

i'm glad i was finally able to get back on the site btw

i like the home uni's,the away ones are alright,i hope we get some red or silver alternates

Quote: If anyone on here thinks we are sticking with the 3rd and 11 pick, you are out of your mind. Think back to past NBA drafts and see how many trades go on in the lottery picks. A LOT. We have 2 picks and we don't need to get any younger. There will be some sort of a trade that ATL will be involved in. It may include moving back from the 3 or back from the 11. It may include getting a veteran for one of the picks. I am expecting a trade, maybe with Boston? Maybe a 3rd for 5th where we also get one of their point guards (Delonte West?)I think if we pull that one off, we get whoever is left amongst Yi, Horford, or Conley. Its a small chance. Last year, there were 5 trades amongst the top 8 picks. Only us, Charlotte, and Toronto stayed put. We will not stay put this year at 3 and 11. I promise. personally,i think we'll keep both of them

Quote: Greg Oden isn't known for his post game? not really,i would say he's known for defense

Quote: Ford got those numbers from Yi's agent. And we all know how credible he is,after backing out of the combine

Quote: You must be out of your damn mind. what he said
