I know we talked about it a little but if you can try to bring Mikes' rapping from Lost in the Echo. It probably won't work but it would be nice.

I did my best Metta World Peace impression if that counts for anything.

you put up a double-double against scrubs. lol with that being said I was heading down to the court to meet you and the rest of the guys and I found out through the 'Squawk on my phone. to say the least I was excited.

I prefer that bag of chips you gave me.

In a very sarcastic & lighthearted response to the question.... this an example of the bag of chips I personally received (jk lol) from friend and fellow user ATLscrub after Marvin was traded for Devin Harris. I wanted Marvin gone for one bag but lets just say for someone to convince me that Smoove is a viable option at the three you'd have to give me about 50.

couldn't have said it better!

Ferry has been targeting a defensive minded Small Forward ever since we've gotten our surplus of shooters. Brewer is pretty limited on the offensive end but with so many options here he could possibly be a good fit. Plus he isn't a pushover on defense, if he has a year or so remaining on his contract I could see him coming here so Ferry can keep that cap flexibility.

I don't see us re-signing TMac, not monetary-related but he just didn't have that energy earlier in his career.Just by judging the offseason, i'd say Ferry wants to get younger but competitive so TMac doesn't fit the mold. I do believe that he will trade some our shooters for a legit SF however. I wonder how many years Brewer has left on his contract.

Anyone else think he's taking a little shot at Teague and Horford/Smoove?

exactly. just because Joe could create his own shot people automatically assumed he was a #1 option. He never was/is/or will be.

I totally agree with what you said. It's hard for people that live in the burbs to make it to the games this time of year.

you bring up some very solid points but Baseball has roughly twice as many home games than Basketball so I think it's totally understandable that people don't want to come out all night. Plus if any of you guys live in the Metro Atlanta Area you know how the weather and our horrendous traffic also play a factor. I've seen plenty of fans at Braves games but you can't expect many fans to come out during the week for any sport. By the way I am also a huge Braves fan. Ever since I was 7 or so.

It does but they've only gone ONCE in their 46 year existence. Not impressive.

IF we really wanna talk about heart. this guy has Smoove and Horford beat.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAcerISqI8s

if we could somehow give Smoove the winning and competitiveness that Horford brings we would finally have a superstar.but in all honesty, i've said this before and i'll say it again. we don't know how Smoove, Horford, or Teague will do this season with JJ gone and playing them is the only way to find out. should be full of surprises!

Orlando obviously did NOT want to trade Howard to us (or to anyone within the division) although we had the best offer on the table at some point during the talks. I hope they're worse than Charlotte.

of course! any team from New York area I have to go against. I grew up a huge Braves fan (still am) and i'll always remember how rude and tasteless some of their fans are. plus they always show up down here.

why would Houston possibly trade away Lin so quickly after prying him from the Knicks. This makes 0 sense.

although he was before my time this is still a very tragic end to a great basketball players' and individuals' life. Condolences to Dan Roundfield and his family/friends.

let's see Andersen is a 6'10'' Center/PF who is 34 years old. He roughly averaged 5 ppg & 5rbg w/Denver and had a salary of over 4 mil last season. Not bad numbers off the bench but with Zaza, Petro, Horford, and Jordan Williams being able to play center I see little room for him here.By the way, I can see Jordan Williams giving us the same numbers as Birdman.

if we can get them for a reasonable price I would love to see Delfino, JChill, or Pietrus here.

This is what I believe Ferry is attempting to do with this team. For this season, he plans on building up Smoove and possibly Teague (only reason I say this is because of the new assistant coach hire). Then in the following offseason he will attempt to get D-12 here. Giving us a superstar, maybe even another star, and a solid bench.
