  1. He will bring us a ton of fans. There is a large Asian population in Metro Atlanta and I can tell you from experiences that they love their Asians athletes... Especially ones that are borderline "stars". Hype or not... Bad contract or not. Ferry needs to make this deal happen. Clever marketing.
  2. Only brought him in for Dwight... He's virtually useless now.
  3. http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2013/7/5/4493296/dwight-howard-rumors-hawks-nba-free-agency-2013 It's a lot of info we already know but we cannot give up on this yet Hawks fans, there's still a chance.
  4. Alex Kennedy ‏@AlexKennedyNBA1mDwight Howard respects Jose Calderon's game, per a source. He thinks they'd play well together since Calderon is a good facilitator/shooter. I'm told Dwight Howard and Jose Calderon are interested in playing together. Calderon may wait for Howard to make a decision before signing. Alex Kennedy ‏@AlexKennedyNBA1mIt's no coincidence that when Dwight Howard to Houston rumors started heating up, there was a subsequent Jeremy Lin for Jose Calderon rumor.
  5. This is the best Bleacher Report article I've read in a long time.
  6. Previous 7 of 10 Next http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1694068-biggest-red-flag-of-every-top-tier-2013-nba-free-agent-remaining/page/7 Joshua S. Kelly-USA TODAY Sports Last Team: Atlanta Hawks Age: 27 Position: PF 2012-13 Per-Game Stats: 17.5 points, 8.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.8 blocks, 1.2 steals, 17.82 PER Type of Free Agency: Unrestricted If Josh Smith were required to attack the basket, post up or pass the ball on every single possession, he'd be one of the 10 best players in the NBA. He has that much physical and defensive talent. However, Smoove has this strange notion that he's a top-tier jump-shooter ingrained in his brain, no matter how many times Philips Arena showers him with groans when he clanks another shot off the back of the rim. Assuming your stomach has recovered from viewing Monta Ellis' shot chart, take a look at Josh Smith's, once more courtesy of Basketball-Reference.com. It's even uglier! At least Ellis' red Xs fall behind the three-point arc, rather than populating the area of the court notorious for low efficiency. The long two-pointer is the worst shot in basketball, and yet it's the one that Smoove likes the most. It's unacceptable for a player as physically talented as Smith to shoot over 300 times from 16 to 23 feet over the course of a single season, especially when he makes only 32.9 percent of the attempts.
  7. We have no use for both Smoove and Dre... One or the other, neither will take $10 mill a year anyways.
  8. I personally think it will be Dre and Bynum if no Howard.
  9. Mine as well, we have the edge if he wants to play with Smoove. We can just troll Houston the rest of the way because they cannot sign both Howard and Smoove, would need us to sign and trade him to them Houstons GM be like ---> with Ferry every hour.
  10. Chris Broussard ‏@Chris_Broussard3hSources close to Howard tell me Kobe's reported pitch in Tuesday's meeting about teaching D12 how to win will be a "complete turnoff" to D12
  11. Alex Kennedy ‏@AlexKennedyNBA7hDwight Howard's decision is preventing other moves. A lot of FAs are considering HOU, ATL, DAL, etc. but those teams are in holding pattern.
  12. I literally didn't even see it apparently. Sorry.
  13. https://twitter.com/ESPNSteinLine Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine21mAl Jefferson is heading to Charlotte on three-year deal worth estimated$41 million with opt out after Year 2, sources tell ESPN Now ya'll can shut up about Al Jefferson. We must now focus on Bynum.
  14. This may not mean anything, then again it could... I guess we will find out within the next few days or so.
  15. https://twitter.com/MySportsLegion NBA Legion ‏@MySportsLegion5mIf the Rockets fail to sign Dwight Howard, they may look at trading for LaMarcus Aldridge or Al Horford. (ESPN) Could Ferry be shopping Horford or is this just some off the wall plan of theirs?
  16. http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/9448966/sources-tyreke-evans-wants-join-new-orleans-pelicans One by one we will keep seeing the free agent pool drying up. If we can't at least get a B level player I've lost hope in Ferry.
  17. Dennis is the only hope I have in this franchise right now. Well Horford but he can't do it alone, get us some help Ferry!
  18. A buddy of mine that has to ride MARTA to go virtually everywhere saw Billy Knight today on one of the trains. Wonder what he's doing around town... I know he goes to Dream games sometimes. Guess he still lives down here or something. If I saw him out somewhere I'd probably cuss him out.
