Winning 50 games means our assets are more valuable and we're a more attractive destination. I think the roster is "flawed" to some degree but it's more lack of top level talent than lack of versatility unless JJ/OO/Griffin pops. Why do you feel management is boneheaded? I've been impressed with Fields -
As is I think Bey is probably the casualty unless we're good enough to go into the tax. Without Bey, we're about this same spot next year.
-
Side note: I think it'll take us a minute to hit our stride, but around December I'm expecting some quality bball.
-
I agree that we're the type of team built for the regular season and maybe not the playoffs. I'd be keeping a very close eye on the Ingram situation or a comparable upgrade at wing.

Let's put this away in the 4th folks -
Final Pre-Season Game 5: On the Road Again at Philly, 7:00PM

We're playing the right brand of ball. This passing is and defense is electric! Imagine after we have more than 1 off-season! -
We've seen Snyder change up some folks games already, maybe he can work his magic with OG. Hell, maybe he can work it with Hunter and it's moot. As for some other folks to keep an eye on due to their teams cap situation: Brandon Ingram, Jaden McDaniels. Either would be very nice.
-
I hesitate here, too, but maybe in a Snyder motion offense he can get the touches he wants. I think he's a play finisher rather than playmaker though
-
For OG? Sure. Getting OG won't be easy though. He is a free agent next year, so dealing Hunter/Capela for quality expiring (Hield is interesting) I could get behind. I think there's a reasonable chance JJ+OO is a very high level 4/5 combo as soon as this year if they play to their defensive potential. Offensively they're very strong, defensively they've got all the tools
-
Don't know if this has been said yet, but I think CC is professional enough to come off the bench IF OO earns it (I'm not totally convinced he has tbh, his defense needs to be good). CC is cheap enough in the new cap to be a bench player and good enough we shouldn't just dump him.
-
Think this is our best lineup potentially. Either CC or OO at center
-
Everything else looks fine from him. Hopefully it's just a slump but it looks pretty bad
-
Thank you Quin Snyder
-
Everybody but AJ has impressed this preseason imo. Murray struggling to dribble though
-
He's looked pretty good overall. Needs to hit his spot up 3s, but active on D with some good passing.
-
Quick thoughts: 1. Only a couple of shots I didn't like (Trae iso and Murray midranger) 2. Better ball movement 3. BIG believer in Bufkin 4. Griffin missed some bunnies but looked goodb I thought 5. Okongwu three looked good, less impressed by his defense 6. Trae was a little sloppy but overall good 7. Love all the 3s!
-
This is ironically pretty ignorant @sturt. @AHF is being quite lenient. As @JeffS17 said it ain't up to you and it doesn't take a high school English essay to get the point.
-
Picked AJ because I see some star upside there. Not sure JJ has that due to less scoring ability, HOWEVER I'm very high on JJ as a super role player. Aaron Gordon was a good comp above, or Batum maybe.

Dejounte Murray signs extension - 4yrs/$120 Million
TheFuzz replied to JayBirdHawk's topic in Homecourt
Honestly, I'd imagine it happened this offseason after seeing what some other players were getting. Based off this offseason I'd be surprised if he got the full $40M next year. -
On the money front? You're probably right but KAT's already at $50M a year.
-
Think I agree with the Hawks on this one. I like all 4 of our young 1st round picks tbh and would rather deal our future picks for an upgrade somewhere.
-
KAT's shooting vs Siakam's defense. I think in the playoffs I like Siakam+Okongwu's 2 way ability on the front line over Towns+Okongwu. I also think there's a chance Siakam ends up commanding less money than KAT...
-
! Capela has become one of my fave Hawks of recent vintage. Dude is a class act and a baller!
-
Question is: would you rather have Siakam or Towns? I think I lean Siakam honestly but it's close.
-
I feel like Bey starts over JJ.
