  1. For me is defense and size, My board would be Clingan Filipowsky yves Missi Furphy
  2. Is a shame that Hawks are starting Matthews and Vet...
  3. Is no surprise for me that when we have been able yo get on the court a starting lineup with adequate size we are winning games easily. I like the backcourt of DJ and Bogi, I like Kobe as backup for DJ. Bey as starting SF IS average, Hunter as backup is great. JJ as a PF is becoming a star, we lack a backup Capela is average as Center. OO is average and a bad fit for Capela. If there is a trade out there that gets us a star wing and a good center for Trae and OO or Capela I would do it and a Heartbeat. A starting lineup of DJ/star wing/Bogi or Hunter/JJ/Big C IS in my mind a contender
  4. A Big Center, that should be the target and there are some at our draft range.
  5. Since no trades were made I would try to give the roster a chance. Clearly roster is not balanced and we need some upgrades. There are some players that have been cut and could be great additions to the roster. Backup PG: Cory Joseph, Kilian Hayes Backup shooter: Joe Harris Backup PF: Marcus Morris, Thadeus Young, Otro Porter Backup Center: Robin López, Metu Any of those player might be signed for vet min and could replace nicely Mills, W. Matthews, G. matthews, Bruno...
  6. I can see us moving Bey for Grimes or Okoro. I can see us moving Mills and a second for Delon. However the most importante move is to upgrade the frontcourt, we need a Big C and a backup PF, we need them to shoot the 3 and I see nothing in that direction
  7. Well, I disagree, I think the main problem is balance, we are not a balanced team Young, Murray, JJ, are quality starters on any team Capela, Bogi, Hunter, OO are quality role players. Bey, Mills are quality bench players. Griffin, Bufkin, Lundy and Gueye are young players with high potential Bruno, Matthews can play, end of the bench players. Main proble is that players do not fit, we have no size, no depth at Frontcourt, no defense, no strength. Change Bey, Mills, Bogi and Capela for players like Grimes, Hartenstein or Vaalnciunas, Achiuwa, Herbert Jones and this team is completely different. Play Bufkin, Lundy or AJ and Gueye and you have a quality team
  8. We need a retool We need to trade Capela for a stretch 5, we can even lose in the trade but the fit improvement would be massive. Try to get some value from him while he still has some. We need to move OO at PF, he cannot compete with centers. We need to trade Bey while he still has some value. We should give time to Bufkin, Griffin and Gueye.
  9. Well is easier to build around DJM, JJ and OO than around Trae. Trae should get us a star, as KAT and additionally a real good player.
  10. I have heard Hawks want to get bigger, they are thinking moving JJ to SF. OO is a perfect fit for him at PF. Currently we have good ofensive players and few good defensive players. A starting 5 with a star offensive PG (Trae),a good defensive SG (Josh Hart), a point forward at SF with size (JJ), a Big snd strong PF that os a good defender (OO) and a star offensive center (KAT) is a good fit. Bench needs to include a good defensive guarde (Delon or Melton) and another 2 good defenders at Forward position and C. Rest can be shooters. That team would be a good fit.
  11. I understand that Melton and Dortz price might be high, I would trade Bey or Hunter or both for any of them. Another player that would be a perfect addition is Josh Hart.
  12. The best role players I see on the market are Melton and Lugen Dortz, I think they would be good fits with Trae
  13. The best option we have to build a contender is to trade Bey, Hunter, Bogi, Capela, Murray for a star SG and a star C that can shot the 3. Slide JJ to SF and OO to PF. Possible SG targets: I don’t like any, just Desmond Bane but I doubt Memphis trade him. Possible C targets: KAT, Vucevic, Turner, JJJ, Porzingis
  14. I would rebuild around DJM and JJ and trade everyone else. Capela, OO, Hunter, Bey, Bogi... All are average or below average and have flaws we cannot cover. Young, I cannot see a contender building around him, is impossible for us.
  15. The target should be clear, I said several times before season start, we are extremely thin at frontcourt, we need bigs and size. We play Toronto with OO and Cap, we win. We play next game without Cap, we lose. We could use, Wes, Mills, Bey, Hunter for a clear upgrade at Frontocourt, is really needed, and we need depth.
