TruJerz

scratch that. brand new 30 team league. no draft, updated rosters. league name is "givemethose" if you wanna join. Hawks are available as of now. 30 games then playoffs. you can message "P r ii k o"(with the spaces except for the ii's) or "TruJerz" on XBox if you cant find it and need an invite. on HOF still and you can trade all you want

40 game league then playoffs Hawks are available..they are 2-0 but previous user traded Joe Johnson :( lol but you can make trades tho teams available are: Jazz(4-2), Bobcats(2-8 I think) Lakers(0-9) no Bynum but have Tony Parker, Bogut and Maggette, Nuggets(2-13) no JR, Lawson, Chandler or KMart but do have Darren Collison, Grant Hill and Haslem lol. its a pretty competitive league on Hall of Fame so make sure you are good. leave your gametag and I'll add you right away with the team of your choice or shoot me a message online at TruJerz..first come, first served peace :)

being from Jersey and seeing this guy play a good amount at Seton Hall, I can tell you this guy is a NBA player. he could of came out last year but decided to go back to school..they had him going early 2nd round last year. and this year he was still a 2nd round pick in most mock drafts until he got hurt and his stock dropped but his game never fell off at all. He was a scorer but in the NBA he'll most likely be a 3 point specialist. his game is not like Glover much but like Anthony Morrow who also went undrafted. but his shot is more streaky..Morrow is pretty much automatic. he has potential to be a better defender than Morrow tho. I expect him to make the roster if Hawks are indeed in need of a scoring 2 guard

Diesel, Nash has missed the playoffs. the year he had Shaq and Amare. Melo is the one who has never missed the playoffs. with that said getting Iguodala without giving up Joe Johnson and Josh Smith would be huge for the Hawks even tho he is struggling imo

AI + TMac?? with a team that already has Crawford?? No way lol I liked all the players in their prime but AI and TMac are both in their 30s and still want to be the man on the team. Iverson is ok but TMac is washed up and thinks he's still a go to guy. I think a team with those guys will not get out the first round..no way they would win a championship. I wouldnt mind signing Iverson if he came off the bench

dont assume this means Teague will be the starting PG..I dont think he will start right away and he shouldnt..he hasnt really proven anything yet. And lets say he is a bust(i dont think he is, but you never know) then you wanna have someone like Bibby, who knows the system and the players there just incase. Teague minutes may increase but that doesnt mean Drew will start him..so talks of trading Bibby is kind of pointless at this point unless you mean for another PG but he couldnt bring back anything much better so i'd keep him..especially if you tryna keep Joe Johnson

thats a damn good team..I'd put Wade over Kobe but I like Lopez at C..thats a good dream team

I agree with that. Being from New Jersey, I appreciate what the guy did even though he made history lol he made history twice though..starting his career with 13 straight wins and then getting the worst start in NBA history lol but with that said, he's not a horrible coach and everyone knows that. He's a good energy guy and can draw up plays as well. I would like to see him get a chance to coach next season

I disagree..no one even rates him lol he's a role player and a 3rd or 2nd option at best. If Joe Johnson does leave there arent many other options out there..Hawks dont have that much money to spend and wont get a high draft pick so unless they are gonna make a trade, this may be the best option..Salmons is a good scorer that we would need

yea would be a good option B but first we should try to get Joe Johnson back. I dont mind having Bibby on the team but maybe Teague starts and Bibby comes off the bench. If we get Salmons we will probably look like this: Teague/Bibby Salmons/Crawford Marvin Williams/Childress Josh Smith/Lawal(Georgia tech) Horford/Zaza not a bad team. Deeper than any team we've had in the past 5 years for sure

If Joe Johnson leaves, looks like Hawks may target Salmons according to this article. I've seen others pick him as a replacement of Joe Johnson if he leaves..looks like its a possibility because he may not resign with the Bucks. Take a look: http://my.journaltimes.com/post/woelfel-world-of-sports/could_bucks_salmon_become_a_hawk.html

not overrating but his size can be a factor..he's the biggest player we got and we're facing Howard. He has to see some more minutes

These are the 2 most important things on your list IMO: 1.We cannot under any circumstances double team Howard. If he scores big he scores big. Its not like he is going to score 100 points. Double teaming Howard just makes it easier for them to score because someone will be open and they are the best shooting team in the league. Play him straight up. cant let their shooters beat us from the outside 5. Teague/Collins/Smith will have to get some playing time. This is why we got Collins because Horford just doesnt match up with Howard well..numbers prove it..Howard dominates Horford and I dont see that changing now. Collins and Zaza have to play BIG or else...sweep!!!

Woody may need to go. But did you guys read the article or did you just skim thru it? "He said there were too many one-pass possessions involving guards Joe Johnson and Jamal Crawford." And he was right about Horford as well..before Horford got going he took some forced shots in the paint that were tough shots. Horford played good in the 4th but he did force some shots down in the post where it's like he has nowhere to go and throws it up. Everyone is to blame for his lost though

nah. he's being aggressive and that's what you wanna see. he'll get it going..it's only 2 games
