I'm curious if you guys think we should be trying to trade Teague or Schröder? Seems to me that Schröder has more potential but does he fit our system? I would think you could get more for Schröder. And we need rebounding badly so I'm not sure how you fill it. Does everyone think we should be trading Teague since I see trade Teague ideas.
What about Teague and a No. Draft pick for Lopez from Brooklyn?

I believe he totally shut down Deangelo Russell with Ohio State in the tournament. When you have a guy that can shut down a star, I think that is worth a lot. The playoffs is all about defense.
Seriously? Am i missing something. He made Josh Smith look good. Amtic gave the Pacers sreries away all by himself. One clunker after amother after another. The bonehead never figured out spwhy he was open, necause HE SUCKED!!!!!!!!!
Brand is one of the signings. This other signing is probably a filler type player. Not enough money for much else. I hope they keep Bebe. If they playnhim enough we can make the Lottery. Of course his confidence will be shattered. I think Bebe goes back to EuropeHawk88
I'm confused to why he only gets bigger if he stays here. Is it because he will be just sitting on the bench? Or is it because almost everybody is fat in this country?Hawk88
This roster has almost zero chance of advancing in the playoffs. We would need like 3 guys to get hurt to miss the playoffs. Think the NBA needs to do something about taking the tanking strategy away from teams to land the big star? I think it really hurts the integrity of the game. Reward the teams for stinking it up? There is going to be some serious stink this year.Hawk88
One reason you don't match is to make the other team wait while you negotiate with others players to get the best player at the best price you can.And if we didn't match it would be untrue we get back nothing in return. We get the leaving players salary which we can spend in somebody else. Under a team salary cap structure that is something important. There is a reason teams trade for players with expiring contracts.I hope this works. I don't think Teague at 8 million is bad. Would have been better at 6 million. I wonder what and if we offered Jennings or Mo Williams.Hawk88
Atlanta Falcon fans seem pretty strong. Of course they in. And they are an organization that gets the Free Agents of their choice.Hawk88Falcons win, sorry.
If Teague were a hot commodity Ferry would have done a sign and trade but he is not. He is average. Nobody wants average. Not for 8 million. Only Larry drew wants him. Teague maybe is better than Jennings and Ellis.Hawk88
Playing the Mo Williams chip will lower the price for Jennings. Mo Williams also let's us move Schröder into the lineup as quickly as possible.I don't see Teague, Jennings or Ellis leading a team to a championship. Teague is good, I just don't think he is good enough to get you to the playoffs. I'm just not to sure how far he can get you. We have to hope Schröder will be the answer in 3-4 years.Hawk88
I like the moves we are making. If we tank we want to get back to respectability quickly. Avoid long bad contracts and guys with attitude. With two year contracts it gives you time to develop the young guys, like Bebe. This team looks borderline playoffs. But if we lose Teague we could get bad pretty quickly. Anyone know if we still have cap room to sign and trade Jsmith at this point?I like what we have done so far. Nothing stupid.Hawk88
I agree with this assessment. Pick up a couple of potential starters and play young. Maybe you suck, maybe not. But add some guys with potential. Maybe get another draft pick. Play Schröder, a lot.
I am for signing a FA center instead of drafting one at 17 or 18. I can't decide if we should be just be drafting young talent and sucking it up for next years draft.
