I would love nothing more than to play Boston in the first round next year and have Howard wreck Horf because of this. The city was nothing but great to Al and for that to be said is absurd.

No they are not. The Celtics have had terrible years where fan support was minimal. Their fans were excited during the playoffs because they were the underdog trying to make a statement. The same thing happened in Atlanta the first few years the Hawks made the playoffs after a drought.
Horf, do you freaking remember taking the Celtics to 7 games and how freaking loud Phillips was??? Because I do. I was there. Cheering you on, you twat.
Hell yeah. Remember when Bibby took a shot at them saying they were wearing paper bags over their heads. Good one Titi

Yeah. Our starting center had a total of 16 boards over 4 games vs the cavs. The sounds like you should be getting a huge round of applause AL. He is definitely going to get boo'd now when he comes back to Atlanta.
-
Give it time. It has only been about 2-3 hours. I would be shocked if he did not make a statement about Atlanta at some point.

I agree 100%. I mean we did not want to give Carroll a 4 yr/60mil deal and we give baze that kind of money. Granted the cap was increased but still, thats insane. I am a big fan of bazemore, but I do not believe he is worth that kind of money.

Would you all really still want to have the same team we had the past 2 years? The organization tried and it backfired. I admire the effort for once that we normally never see.

How does he not deserve to be booed? He took the same money Hawks offered minus one year to go to, of all teams, the Boston effn Celtics. Can't believe it. Hope Durant does not go to Boston as well. We should be a better team if he doesn't.
I am basing that off of what he has done for Atl and the Hawks over his career. Not off of the contract he just took.

Everything changed. Your best group was the PG's who always outplayed the opponents PG's. Gone.
Defensive reads and assignments. Gone.
Your bench. Weak.
We are in a good position if we just wanted to trade assets and start from the beginning.
Our defense will not skip a beat.

Nothing has changed. We replaced Howard with Horford. All we get from that is more rim protection and better rebounding. We will be alright. Plus Baze could be seriously trade bait down the line once our rookies get developed. If nothing else I think we need to seriously consider throwing some money at Harrison Barnes that GSW do not want to match.
-
He does not deserve to be, but he definitely will be boo'd. Lol
-
He must really hate Howard. Seems ridiculous considering he has been begging to play the 4. But Good luck big AL. And also good riddance. Going to be nice to have someone dominate the boards alongside Sap.

Per NBA league source, Hawks have upped offer to Al Horford & added a 5th yr. Not a 5-yr max though.
Not sure if this has already been talked about but I did not find it anywhere. Not sure the whole truth to it as it was reported ZachKleinWSB.
-
I would definitely want Stanley Johnson. He is going to be a beast
-
I agree that Baze could be an excellent recruiter. But Curry isnt about to leave the GSW. Not a change he comes to Atlanta anyways.
-
Harrison Barnes? Granted it is a extremely long shot seeing as how GSW will probably match anything we were to offer.
-
Lets be real here. Al is a really good player, not a great player. He has only 2 post moves down low and one of them comes with a hook everytime that could be called for an offensive foul. And he can hardly go to his left hand in a post-up if at all. When he isnt in the paint (which was very rarely last season) he stands in one spot set-up to try and hit a jumper. I am a big fan of Al but if he wants to be drama filled after he has been all but begging to play the 4, let him walk. I see the Howard Millsap combo being much more efficient than the Howard Horf combo anyways.

We can dream I guess haha.
But I hate Sap at the 3. But with that lineup I would be cool with it lol

LBJ is finished? You are making this post as he finished Game 1 of the finals only 1 assist off of a triple double. Who cares if his outside game isnt like Durants or Currys. He is strong enough to drive in and get anything he wants in the paint. He draws so much attention that he can drive in every single time and kick it out to a wide open guy for 3. I do not root for the guy one single bit, but the East will continue to be his for the next 3-4 years.

rebounds. REBOUNDS. REBOUNDS. REBOUNDS!
We need more rebounding and I think Noel would definitely be a huge help in that department. I am tired of watching Tristan Thompson hold Al to a combined 15 rebounds over four games. Defense and Rebounding? Lock this trade up! If we give Al a max contract by any measure, we have only set ourselves up for disappointment once again for the next 5 years.

I disagree and think Teague would love the opportunity to get out of Atlanta if we moved him to the right team.
Agreed. He wanted to go with LD to arguably the worst team in the NBA. Could he help that team? No Doubt but they would still be terrible. He is looking to start over IMO and his draft stock is probably as high as its goin to be. He has gotten better each season stats wise besides shooting %. I like Teague and feel he can be good for our team, but when the ball starts rollin down hill, it does not stop.

I own ps4 and xbox1
Gonna sell the ps4. Anyone interested?
How much?

I am curious to see how much better Minny can get with Rubio/Horford/Pek. I been asking for this ish for years in Atlanta.
I really do not see them being a top-tier team. I understand it takes time, but i think Rubio is a bit overrated anyways. Yeah he pulls off some sweet passes but I would take Teague over him anyday. Plus he cant shoot worth a damn.
Big Al Adressess the Hawks fans

Thanks for the 140 character tweet about your 9 years in Atlanta. You stay classy, Al.
