I think it's a bunch of BS that we are here being bored because of this lockout. What is so bad about taking a little less money? You see people who are struggling just to make enough for there families and here the players are saying we want the most money possible. If I was Derek Fisher, I would listen to what the owners have to say, I mean whats wrong with makeing 5 mill a year? Not bad in my book. With that money you would be set for life, Lol. Agreed.

Keep Smith. I think it's LD that's making us want to trade smoove. Either LD changes his philosophy to be a defensive-minded coach, or he should get fired.

I wonder if Jim is going to ask him what he's doing with his $123 million, Lol.

Wait, whos in next years draft class? Sorry I don't watch NCAA Basketball that much.

Ha! That sucks for Zaza.

You can't blame him. Just like many americans, he has to provide for his family. I wonder what will happen to his resturaunt in downtown?

That's a Big A** Truck! :D

Ok, when we only win 31 games, I'll thank you. :D

Let's get more in return, Lol.

Lets hope this lockout can be done with before the season starts. D:

Hell yeah! Of course your going to start teague at the begining of the season. Adding David Lighty as a defensive specialist, add you a center that can rebound and block shots, I think you have a team that can contend for titles.

Didn't you see that we will lose 3 games?

The question is, does he find Atlanta an attractive place to play for?

Ha, i will definently not miss that. You never know, He may sign with the Bulls and Thibedeou might make him a better defender. You never know. D:

Good defender. Does he replace D Wilks?

I'm going to miss the 4 point plays, and those shake n' bake crossovers he would pull on the guy defending him.

That's my point with JC2. If JJ was there to mentor him. no doubt he would have been our JC1.

To sum up what i said, what was the point of trading for hinrich when we already had teague?

Look here dude, for a guy who used to be assistant coach to Woody, you would have thought that he knew the flaws this Hawks team had from getting to the NBA Finals, but I guess he didn't. He talked about moving the ball more and getting more open looks, we got those open looks but we didn't hit them. We ranked 26th in the league at points per game with 95 a game. If it wasn't for Hinrich pulling his hamstring, we wouldn't have know the guy sitting on the bench every night, Jeff Teague was the best point guard on this team. Now you look into the offseason where jamal is demanding a long term contract, when JC2, who plays just as good as jamal maybe even better was there for cheap and could give this hawks team a scoring punch. And that was in Washington, there were no veteran shooting guards there such as JJ, trying to mentor him into being a great shooting guard in this league. Maybe helping him develop into a even better player. And for your last comment, I said someday when he acctually gets a veteran shooting guard to help him develop into an even more offensive player. Did you think when he was scoring almost 28 a night for the wizards it didn't matter?

Yep, I do hope the Hawks invite him to training camp.

Larry Drew is the worst coach the Hawks ever hired. JC2 would have replaced jamal after the season ended and probably give us 13-15 ppg off the bench. You never get the rookies a chance to show you what they got, but Larry Drew, who plays a 9 man roation never gave him the chance. Next year who knows he might win the scoring title.

i thought keirelenko was going overseas?

Where do we get Enes in that deal?

You think Rick Sund wants to dp that? and I'm sure the wizards don't want to give up JC2 or singleton.
