  1. Quote: Why work out for the hornets when they have Chris Paul? Precisely.
  2. Quote: Wow 38 inch vertical for a 7 footer is amazing!!Even if he is weaker than other big guys in the paint his vertical should help him out. He is also heavier than we thought at 248lbs. He can easily put on some weight with training. He could come into camp at 255lbs. He will need the few extra pounds also because of the long NBA season. I don't think weight matters that much. What matter is the strength to play the 5. eg: Ben Wallace
  3. Quote: he has prolly seen how 82games.com has marvin playing more mins at pf than he really did... This is interesting. I thought jSmith played more PF but 82games said he played 40% at SF while only 20% at PF spot. http://www.82games.com/0607/06ATL11C.HTM
  4. Quote: I haven't looked but i am pretty sure the Bobcats had it worse. Houston and Miami got hit hard. The pitiful offseason aquisitions played a huge role in the lame season. And you can't blame the Hawks putrid center play on injuries. Nah, I read somewhere that only Lakers have more injuries than the Hawks.
  5. Quote: Quote: http://fannation.com/truth_and_rumors/view/7171 Quote: Yi Jianlian and his posse -- i.e. agent Dan Fegan and the Chinese government -- would love nothing more than to see Yi wind up a major market, preferably one with a significant Chinese population. The scuttlebutt is the Yi group has targeted four teams: Atlanta, Boston, Golden State and Chicago. One of the rumors making the rounds is the Warriors would be willing to give the Bucks a couple of players and their top pick. One of the players would allegedly be shooting guard/small forward Jason Richardson. Yi could own this town and put it back on the basketball map. This is something to consider given the lowly state of our franchise. Mind you, I believe he's clearly the most talented draft prospect after Durant and we need talent. It wouldn't hurt to have some PR the likes of which we will have never seen. W No, I don't think this team needs more talent; They already have Josh Smith, JJ and Marvin. They need to pick the best player available in the position of need.
  6. Quote: LOL AMEN @ Gutzy. Gosh I can't stand Buck & Kincade. Mostly Kincade. These guys know NOTHING about NBA. They were discussing the stars of the NBA last week, and Kincade couldn't even remember the star on Orlando's name (DWIGHT HOWARD anyone?). I emailed him telling him LeBron wouldn't have to worry with his child's birth interfering with LeBron's games because this series would be a sweep (baby was due yesterday or due before originally) and he replied saying it would be a 6 game series. Then on the day that Kobe announced he wanted to be traded (3 weeks ago), all they talked about that day was Mike Vick's Dog issues But they made you listen to 'em.
  7. Well..you must be wanting an allstar caliber center then because that's what it must take to guard top centers in the NBA. I just want a center who's not a stiff and can rebound and alter shots.
  8. This team need a PG more than C right now simply because the PGs won't stay healthy. Now that Shelden will be playing some Pt at center and add that with some minutes by Solomon I think the interior defense you're talking about isn't that big of a deal.
  9. lol Flavor of the week is so true... Conley, then Holford then Yi. I'm sticking with Conley all the way.
  10. I don't think Salim have started a game yet and shouldn't be starting... he likes to shoot too much...
  11. You're probably right. I didn't read the post fully.
  12. It's not like he's not going to get a lot of help if he comes to the Hawks. Teams need a lot of good players to win...duh And why is everyone knocking him on his outside shooting? The guy shoot 50%+ FG from the floor. I want to watch his form to see why people are saying his. People were knocking on D.Wade's outside shooting but I don't see anything's wrong with his shooting (form).
  13. Good comparison. Jones' been underrated by some Atlanta dwellers.
  14. Honestly, if they pick a PG in the draft and don't trade away Lue and AJ, then that PG will barely have any PT. I can smell a trade is cooking up.
  15. What's January have anything to do with Basketball? I don't get it.
  16. Quote: I hope not,he is my favorite also. I believe it is easier to predict who will Not be traded. The players I think are not to be offered are JJ, Josh Smith and Solomon. The rest are probably discussed. But instead, armed with 2 lotto picks I really doubt Josh Chilldress will be offered. With another year of development he is of more value. Lue is most likely traded. Lorenzen can be had or "in a suit" most games. The big question is, will Speedy be healthy. No, I can guarantee that Speedy will not be healthy, for a whole season anyway. His condition is chronic and he will sit out games this upcoming this season. They need to get a PG.
  17. The thing that worries me is the lane agility test of Conley. It suppose to measure quickness and he seems to be somewhat slower than Parker, TJ Ford, Paul and deron.
  18. Quote: Acie Law Joe Johnson Josh Smith Yi Jianlian Shelden Williams I can live with that. Shelden def has the strength to play down low and with his frame he could get even stronger. Shelden is a stronger version of Horford. Well not quite as athletic but you would be surprised how close he is to Horford in the athletic department. I know many people worry about his standing reach, but really if you can put a body on somebody and keep them off the block, you would be surprised how much you can throw off their shot. With Yi and Smoove offering weakside blocking, I think that team would def work even in a halfcourt set. I can live with that also but Woody doesn't like to start rookies or let them play a lot of minutes.
  19. It's not a coincidence that when he was given pT, he produced.
  20. Quote: He put up garbage numbers in garbage minutes against teams trying to tank. I was not remotely impressed with him at any point this season. Even though they loose, he play well against NjN, WaSH and ClEv. He's was balling in the last month.
