Don't you guys realize that only five teams in the east have winning records? If they can win two or three in a row they can be in the hunt, if they could only win two in a row....................

Not bad at all.

You guys are always hyping up these bums like Harrington and Tinsley. JT is alot better than anyone on the Pacer's team even overrated and overpaid Jermaine O' Neal. If we trade JT just watch him become a superstar somewhere else and you guys will be the main ones complaining about him being gone.

Come guys let's see what these guys can do without Big Dog. He really messed up the chemistry on the team . I am not a big dog hater but he was a bad fit for the kind of team that the hawks are or could be. All this talk of rebuild is nothing but crap. Rebuild what? I don't remember any championship banners in Phillips ARENA. You guys want to ship half the team off for what? Jt is a good player, SHAREFF IS A GOOD player, Theo is a good player. Some of the guys that you want to trade for don't have half the talent of these three. We do need some more players but all this talk of trade this player for that player is stupid. Atlanta needs some stability and leadership. The coaching situation over the last few years has been the real downfall of the hawks. The removal of BIG DOG may prove to be addition by subtraction. JT is no worse that all the other 2guards in a point guard body. You guys and you stupid [censored] trades!!!!!

COULD WE STILL GET HIM?

ANYBODY REALIZE THAT IF THE TRADE GOES DOWN WHAT KIND OF SQUAD THEY WILL BE DEALING WITH NEXT SEASON. I HOPE THAT EVERYONE HASN'T GIVEN THE CHAMPIONSHIP TO THE LAKERS ALREADY, THIS MAYBE THE BEST SEASON IN A VERY LONG TIME. I CAN'T WAIT. SPURS ARE STRONGER THATTHEY WERE LAST YEAR AND THEY WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP, DON'T SLEEP ON THEM.

Do we have any rights on him? Is he restricted or what?

IS he that good. If he were to enter and win it would really get the attention of the fans in Atlanta.

The hawks are not built for that slow down wear'em down approach. they are a run and gun team. maybe a change in the coaching philosophy would equal more wins or better effort. Stotts is pretty much doing the same thing Lon did. I am sorry but JT is the best player on the team by far. they sure as [censored] don't need to trade him. Dickau hasn't done nothing yet. I think that with Benjamin we may be able to turn the corner just a little bit. but stotts has to let the boys run and zone>

IF THEY BLOW A TRADE AND TAKE ON TOO MANY MAX CONTRACTS THEY WILL BECOME WHAT THE KNICKS ARE TODAY. I SAY TRADE SHAREEF OR BIG DOG. THEY MAKE TOO MUCH MONEY AND THEY GOT TO KNOW THAT HE DOESN'T WANT THE MAX SALARY. I JUST KNOW THAT IF THEY TRADE JT, HE IS GOING TO GO SOMEWHERE AND BECOME A [censored] STAR. HE IS THE PRODUCT OF A BAD SYSTEM. EDDIE JONES IS GETTING UP THEIR IN AGE AND BRIAN GRANT IS REALLY INCONSISTENT. A REBOUNDER IS NOT WORTH THE MAX SALARY WHEN HE CAN'T SCORE WORTH A [censored]. I JUST 17 AND 7 IS PRETTY GOOD. ATLANTA IS A BADLY RUN TEAM AND THAT IS THE SOURCE OF THEIR PROBLEMS RIGHT THERE.

he is a quality player, maybe the big do trade has backfired, but we need to keep JT. Everyone talks about what he isn't doing, but look at what is is doing. is he not a top 10 point guard or better. everyone has flaws nash-can't play defense, bibby-can't shoot or play d, people seem to look the other way when it comes to Kidd's poor shooting. no one is perfect and you guys are calling for his head when you shouldn't be. the hawks need some real veteran leadership that is their problem. somebody like otis thorpe or oakley or even robert horry.
