ATLHawks3

How so? What other point guards can rebound, pass, and score (other than rondo)? Don't get me wrong, I love Teague, but Kyle Lowry is better than him at the point guard position. Plus we get a draft pick and Scola. So.... I would think that Atlanta gets the better end of the deal.

Atlanta receives: Kyle Lowry, Luis Scola, and the #14 pick Houston receives: Josh Smith, and Jeff Teague. Why Atlanta does it: You get a playmaking point guard in Kyle Lowry, you also get a more consistent power- forward in Luis Scola. He can easily give you 15 ppg and 6-7 rpg. You're also getting a draft pick that can either be used to select Austin Rivers, Tyler Zeller, Kendall Marshall, or Dion Waiters. Why Houston does it: You are getting one of the best all around power-forwards in the game. He can score, rebound, play elite defense, and pass, and under a different system of basketball he could be a potential All-Star and "MAYBE" be in contention for an MVP award. You are also getting a very good defensive point guard in Jeff Teague. He can get you steals, force opposing guards to shoot bad shots, and he can bring energy to your team with his superb dunking skills. Who benefits most from this trade: Atlanta Why: Kyle Lowery is a competitor and he brings it everyday on the court. He's kind of like Rondo but with a decent jumper, he can rebound, score, and find people for easy buckets. Under LD's system of offense, look for him to get 16 ppg, 8 apg, 5 rpg. I don't understand why some people think that Luis Scola has a bad contract. He can score, rebound and shoot 50% from the field. The only flaw that I see in his game is that he doesn't block shots but other than that he's pretty good. I would think this is a pretty good trade for both teams but Atlanta comes out as the better team after the trade. New Atlanta Lineup: PG-Kyle Lowery/Free Agent or Draft pick SG-Joe Johnson or (hopefully) Austin Rivers/Free agent or draft pick SF-Marvin Williams or Joe Johnson/If Austin Rivers is not avalible, a draft pick or a Free agent PF-Luis Scola/Ivan Johnson(Resigned) C- Al Horford/Zaza Pachulia I got lazy with the backups so feel free to put in back ups that make sense finacially and production wise. Please feel free to express your opinions about this trade and whether you like it or not.

THANK YOU, WHY WOULD YOU TRADE YOUR BEST PLAYER?

I guess i see your point with that but I wouldn't trade Al Horford. If we could get a true Center he could be a top 5 power forward. Like it or not, he's the Hawks best player and he has alot of potential to be a good leader. Wes Johnson and a lotto pick doesn't even equal to the impact of Al Horford.

So you agree with me?

Trade away our whole starting lineup for 6 rookies, and 4 veterans who are barely above average players? I hope we atleast make the 8th seed with that team.

He actually got kicked out of Minnesota because he commited robbery at a store. Other than that I somewhat agree. He is an absolute beast on the boards, and he has a tough guy mentality about him. If he could get over his fear of flying he could be a top 15 pick.

I think Lamb is a first rounder. He's to good a talent to be in the 2nd round and I project him to go the Chicago Bulls at the number 29 pick.

*Last 3 seasons in college, By the way, he played for UC Santa Barbra or UCSB.

The stat's came out unreadable, but here were his "readable" stats for last season.19.7 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 2.9 apg, .451 FG % in 34.4 minutes per game21.1 ppg, 6.2 rpg, 2.9 apg, .475 FG % in 33.3 minutes per game18.0 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 2.3 apg, .481 FG % in 31.3 minutes per game

Orlando Johnson. The guy can straight up score. Here are his stats the last 3 seasons of college. SEASON GMS MIN PTS REB AST TO A/T STL BLK PF FG% FT% 3P% 2011-12 31 34.4 19.7 5.8 2.9 2.5 1.20 1.1 0.7 1.8 .451 .698 .427 2010-11 32 33.3 21.1 6.2 2.9 2.7 1.08 1.2 0.5 2.1 .475 .804 .405 2009-10 30 31.3 18.0 5.4 2.3 2.7 0.85 0.7 0.6 2.4 .481 .703 .397 He's 6-5, he has a 6-11 wingspan, with an 8-3 reach. If LD could some how find minutes (between 10-15 minutes) he could have a pretty solid season, I would say 6 ppg, 2.8 rebs, and 1.0 assists.Here's a video
