Actually we won't even get out of the first round this year since it appears we are going to get the #5 seed which mean we won't have home court advantage and will have to play Orlando. I don't see us getting out of the first round unless we overtake Orlando or Chicago for the 3rd or 4th seeds and that is highly unlikely with this bunch of clowns

That's the whole point though. Hawks are under the cap and stil would be with this trade.

So does BYC mean the rockets can't trade him?

How about trading Marvin/Mo for Lowry/Terrance Willams or Chase Budinger? They need another SF since Battier is old and winding down. Lowry is very solid since starting for Brooks while he was out and is an upgrade over Bibby. We also get a possible replacement for Marvin with TWill or Chase. We also would still be under the cap and this improves one of our weaknesses at PG.

we won't do any trades. This article pretty much says that but I believe it's time to trade Smoove for an elite PG if possible. How can Sund say they think they are in good shape? That is our biggest weakness IMO. We need a true floor general that can dish, defend and score. Bibby is only avg. 3.8ast. a game and can't defend a lick

I think we definitley need to trade for a legit PG rather than a Center at this point. Just imagine if we even had Rondo? We have no PG on the roster that can actually run the team and dish out the assists. Bibby isn't even averaging 5ast. a game.

Uh..yes he is dude. he is a immature clown. The guy sits here and continues to shoot jumpers eventhough he is an awful shooter. PF are not supposed to be shooting 3's the whole friggin game. It's clear Larry Drew is weak and won't discipline him when he does continue take bad shot after shot. Maybe another team with a disciplined coach and adequate ownership can teach Smoove how to be a pro athelete and play to his strenghts. We clearly can't. He is still 24yrs old so any team in the NBA would take him on and see if they can groom him to be the player he should be. It's clearly not happening with Atlanta.

Josh Smith is the most out of control, overrated player in the NBA. Also a complete idiot and low basketball IQ. It's time to trade this clown and get a real legit PG or superstar player

yeah I'm assuming we can get Melo to sign the extension or I wouldn't even suggest a trade period. That is a given or we don't trade with them at all.

My mistake on Nene as i forgot he was expiring. To get Smoove they would do it. They are not going to lose Melo for nothing are they? We could throw in a 1st rd pick as well. So your telling me they wouldn't take Smoove/1st rd pick for Melo instead of losing Melo for nothing at the end of the year?

Why not? Because they will be rebuilding either way [EDITED BY DOLFAN23]. They are going to lose Melo in the end and guys like Billups , Kmart and others are old and have bloated contracts who wont' be resigned. They will want to get younger. Getting Smoove who is still only 24yrs old with upside and shedding Nene's big contract is a good start for them. What don't you get here?

Trade Smoove/Crawford for Melo/Nene and call it day. Only thing we would lose is blocking ability but we would have 2 top 20 players in the NBA on our team along with Horford. Get it done Sund!

Duh! Well of course i'm assuming Melo resigns with us or I wouldn't of even posted this.

Give them Smoove, Teague, Crawford, 1st rd pick for Nene/Melo and call it a day.BibbyJJMeloHorfordNeneThat will get u to the ECF. If we could only get a legit PG

Yeah it seems this year we are a worse home team than road team now. Doesn't make any sense really. We seem to get up more for the road games and think we can just win at home now.

Guys Jordan Craw is NOT a PG. He is a undersized SG. We need to trade for a real PG with Jamal's expiring and some picks

Teague needs to step it up tonight. He should get a lot of minutes

We MUST somehow keep Crawford! How can we lose this guy? He is the best bench player in the NBA hands down

They just posted on ajc.com the game will be played tonight per the NBA. We need to smash this team and keep the streak going here.

Bibby is earning that contract this year. The guy is lights out from 3 and is shooting like 55% from 3.

Joe is a complete bust and probably our 4th best player on the team behind Horford, Smoove and Crawford. He raped the ASG on that contract

This team is gutless period! We have 5 home losses now and we only had 7 all last year. We didn't even come out and compete tonight. What a joke this team is and Joe is the biggest BUST signing of all time so far

Bosh has always been weak and very overrated in my opinion. Smoove dominates him every game we played them with Toronto. I expect much of the same when we play the Heat. Horford and Smoove will have a field day.

Thanks! Just got Sec. 215 for free. Ballin

Lets hope Marvin isn't hurt too bad. He is out for Friday's game and we are already down Mo. Crawford to make the trip but quest. to play...per Michael Cunningham http://twitter.com/ajchawks
