I disagree i think if crawford shows woody that he's that 20pt scorer, that he was on the other teams he played for than the touches jj get will certainly decrease. Remember woody has only had one 20pt scorer and thats jj, now woody has two scorers he can depend on. both jj and crawford can give you 20pt on any given night, an thats the truth and to me me biibys passer rating doesnt matter in fact what you said maybe true but bibby and crawford averaged the same amount of assists this pass season which is 5.

You can only understand my point if read all!!! First off crawford isnt a bench player and I dont believe he will be on the bench this season and i dont believe he is willing to sit down on the bench. In woodys offense system i feel crawford works better cause he can do a whole lot more on offense than bibby can? I mean really woody dont know how to use a true pg. Everybody says bibby would run the team better than crawford.............really or did you not see bibby do the same damn thing the other hawk players did on offense this season and playoffs (dribble up the court and pass the ball to jj). Bibby takes pressure off of jj but crawford would take more pressure of jj because he can create for himself to score but bibby needs to be set up in order to score mostly. Check this out and you cant say you wouldn't agree that crawford would work better in woody's offense system. 1. bibbys offense is limited against crawfords offense. (an what i mean is when bibby is shooting good than he's really shooting good BUT when bibby's shot is off, he's worthless to this ball club. As for crawford when his shot is on than same results bibby gives us but when his shot is off he dont have to keep shooting to break out of that slump, you know why......cause he can take the ball to the goal and get on the free throw line unlike bibby who is only a shooter and has been his whole career.) 2.bibbys defense sucks just like crawfords BUT even though crawford defense isn't much better than bibby's atleast the man got HEIGHT over these point guards which could have an affect on them when taking contested shots against crawford. with that said, I have no problem if we resign bibby but whats going to happen to marv, zaza, and flip? I mean do we have enough money to get all of them back this season?

Yeah thats very true. Also I think the asg and sund has gotten alot smarter and it showed with crawford. If we did get amare i know the hawks will make him sign an extension or tell him he has to agree and sign to an extension before we trade for him. (the asg and sund era seem a lot smarter than the asg and billy knight era)

agreed. :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim:

i think flip is coming back but bibby is gon in my eyes. also it look like we didnt want him back that bad with the pick up of crawford. then the comments sund made when comparing bibby to crawford made it seem like they were determined to get a cheaper player or at the same cost with better scoring ability

true. he said on a interview on espn that curry wasnt going anywhere. So that GS and PHX trade talk is dead, unless they can come up with another solution which probably wont happen since PHX wants curry so bad.

lol i sure hope so! have you imagined what type of team we would be with amare!...............(can you say Suns 2.0, nothing but offense)

i would rather do that than to give up smith!

the asg and sund need to rethink this before trying to make it happen.

Im not going to lie I was one of the people who said we need either amare or bosh (i regret that now) BUT that was before crawford and teague joined the team i honestly feel we have enough offense with them too and i dont think we need amare to win 50+ next season and im not saying we wont win 50+ if we got him but i am saying he makes this team untouchable on offense but terrible on defense.

yep. that scares me. lol

for everybody who hasnt seen this yet its on espn now. (12:18 CT)

exactly we will be all offense and no defense if we did this. i like amare and im not scared of getting him because he isnt injury prone, he just has mistakes like the eye thing but things like that wont slow him down as a player cause he came back doing his thing after every injury he had. what scares me is that he has no D and he doesnt even try sometime! other than that he's complete on offense.

same here especially on the defense side of the team.

True we did already know but it seems like it may just happen now but maybe im looking into it too much.

I surely hope that doesnt happen!!!!!

yeah im actually kind of hoping it dont happen or get close but i have a feeling it really will because i know woody is going to push sund to get smith out of ATL as hard as he can! Plus espn said that atl hawks said they have no problem moving smith.

Everybody just watch sportcenter it will come on again. An make sure you catch the part about amare and GS then you will hear what i heard about us.

you dont have to thats your decision but i know what i heard and i know i heard right unless espn is lieing to me then im lieing to you!

i know our defense has gotten better im talking about it downgrading if we were to possibly get amare for smith.

Yup it they said it was around 10:30pm CT when i saw it. Im looking for it on the internet now. It wasnt mainly about us it was about gs and phx but they said that it wasnt probably going to go through the trade that is. Then they said the next team heating up with amare talks are the hawks!

I cant see us getting him cause of his age but maybe so. But then again why do we want him so bad.....Woody wouldnt know how to use him cause he's a true pg like bibby so why get him or any other true pg if we are still going to be running that woody's iso offensive scheme?

Was watching ESPN, when I saw the situation of Amare being traded to the warriors but they said the trade is likely not to go through because the suns want curry to be one of the players they get, but the warriors refuse to give curry up. So that talk with PHX and GS is done then the first team he said that was heating up with talks, happen to be our beloved hawks!!! With that being said I understand Smith is a bone head at the offense end sometime but if we got Amare for Smith wouldnt we be losing defense and getting worse on the defense as a team? I mean we just drafted teague and got crawford I honestly dont think we need more help on the offense side of the team, especially if we get flip or bibby back but correct me if im wrong but i have never known amare to be good at defending or better than smith at defending at that. (we were ranked in the top 10 for defense over the regular season this year but possibly wont be if we get amare, i mean at least smith tries at the defense end, i've seen much laziness from amare on the defense end while playing in phx thats why they got shaq!) Also, I only bring up the big issue of us getting amare because sund seems like he's letting woodson be apart of our negotiations with players we draft or pickup through free agency. An i know woodson would push sund to get rid of Smith! especially for amare!!!but if we get amare now we have too much offense and not enough defense. Am i right?

Oh my goodness thankyou. Somebody besides myself finally realizes that!!!!!!!!!!............We have a winner folks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim: :thumbsupsmileyanim:

oh he's a pg, just not a true pg. anyways he certainly is going to be a pg on this team when bibby doesnt get resigned, unless we got some trick up our sleeves to put jj at the 3 and sign and trade marv.then put crawford at the 2 and whoever we draft at point (teague)
