I assume this is a joke. Otherwise it's the worst trade proposal I've ever heard.

Sounds a little cheesy to me.

No more second rounders.

As long as we don't bring Nate back.

I don't understand the KAT fascination. He scores 62, but they lose to a lesser team. He aint that great.

The Hawks should tell LA that with offers like this, they can sit and rot.

I think Ressler has not thought this through. If he wanted Trae to be around to generate ticket sales, then he seems to have shot himself in the foot.

If Klutch wants DJM to go to LA, then they need to work out a three or more team trade, so we don't get stuck with LA's trash.

The Commish shouldn't have that kind of power anyway. It allows him to favor the biggest market teams to keep on being good, and everyone else is a perennial doormat, like our illustrious Hawks.

If that's the case, why have a league outside of NY and LA? The league should not favor any team.

Is Detroit is losing on purpose by making bad decisions? I hate tanking. It means some lazy GM or owner or both, is throwing games as far as I am concerned.

That is quite possibly true, but we've got to get a better return on our investments. We give away good players for a Coke and a bag of chips.

A 13/10 max player. Got his money, now he's taking the easy life.

A lot of money for part time players. I wouldn't be opposed to the idea otherwise.

I wouldn't give up too much for late first round picks (essentially second round picks.). Why would another team jump at that "opportunity"?

Or better yet, just make the entire draft random, and set a hard cap.

Why reward bad management/ownership?

I have no idea. Sounds like the FO wants a chance to screw up more drafts. Giving away a very good player for junk. It's becoming a trend. Fans ought to boycott home games to let Ressler know how sick of this kind of stuff we are.

This is so disgusting. Just sell the whole team Ressler. They're probably no better than the College Park team anyway. Maybe the new owners will move the team out of Atlanta. Someday maybe we can get some owners who will start a new franchise in Atlanta. Ressler and his band of imbeciles have ruined this franchise.

I would draw your attention to the high volume 3 point shooters in the first spreadsheet (2016-17). I'm looking at the players circled in red. 3 of them were over 40% from 3. Another was just barely under 40% (39.8%). The lowest man on the list was 37.1%. if I had players who could shoot that well from 3 point range, I would certainly want to take advantage of it.

I.like Patty, and would llike to keep him around. I would play him more than we currently do.

Do any of you remember the days when we had Tree Rollins and Steve Hawes? Tree was a great defender, but he was always in foul trouble. In comes Steve Hawes, a center with a jumpshot, but only a mediocre defender. However, I think it would be worth considering a similar combo for now. Capela is not in foul trouble all the time, but his health issues reduce his minutes. We had Roundfield to help with rebounds and Hawes was a decent rebounder.

Yeah, Trae pounding the ball near half court and getting a 24 second violation is better, huh?

With regard to #3, it seems that no one got that memo to DJM tonight. We play like a team when he runs the show.

We've been through rebuild after rebuild after rebuild. How did we go from conference championship series to another start from scratch rebuild in this short a time period? This adds on to the legacy of disappointment that we have been plagued with for such a long time. It's like management is going out of their way to fail.
