If he's "phenomenal" I don't think it would have taken this long to get hired again. Yeah according to some people with Bud we will lose 60+ games for the next 5 years but somehow the even WORSE Suns will improve by 20+ wins when he goes there. Logic flies out the window with some posters I swear.

This would be par for the course for Atlanta if we let him walk for nothing. We HAVE TO get something back for him or else it's clear to me we have no hope for the future with the current leadership. Smooooove, Horford, Millsap all could have been traded for some assets but instead we let them walk away for ZERO.

I still think you have to blame the owner, at the end of the day it was HIS decision to bottom out. You think he hired Schlenk without discussing what they were planning on doing this year? And if it's true that Ressler is the owner who yelled at Bud then we are screwed for as long as he's owner. Doesn't matter if we decided to tank or not when your ownership sucks your team will never be successful.

LOL I was honestly just curious on this theory of his.

This article breaks it down a little further: Link

He clearly ignored that part of my post or else he would have responded to it in the initial reply, so I asked again in case he skipped over it or something.

How do you think they choose the players to "hype" up? Clearly it's not based on real talent since Bagley and Ayton suck. Is there a shoe company lottery where they choose random high school kids to hype up in order to make money of them? Or what exactly is this shoe company hype conspiracy?

Curry, Westbrook and Lillard were clearly not hyped up but still went top 10 so I'm not sure what point you are making. How do you think they choose the players to "hype" up?

I'm just saying it's wayyyyyy too early, there's plenty of examples of unheralded high school players who turn into top 10 picks. Just off the top of my head you got Curry, Westbrook and Lillard.

It's ridiculous to try to project who will be a star player this far out. Some of these kids are juniors in high school. Anthony Davis wasn't even on the recruiting radar when his junior year began, who knows who will rise to the top of the class.

This exact point has been re-hashed over and over on here and 99% of us understand the logic behind it. Someone will be here soon to tell you why you're completely wrong though.

No the Wizards took care of us easily in the 1st round last year. You're thinking of 2 years ago when the Cavs absolutely destroyed us in 4 games. Or maybe the year before that when they... absolutely destroyed us in 4 games. What a shame that we couldn't have another fun year of that.

I don't care what he does or says he does, but do you think I believe he's actually in his mom's basement? It's a joke based on a common stereotype of internet trolls. Not saying he is one.. don't ban me. Lol.

KB in his mom's basement right now:

Yes I 100% agree losing Bud would be a HUGE blow. I wish we could actually discuss this issue without it turning into an argument about tanking (as if there is some other option at this point) like every other thread right now.

KB is chillin in his mom's basement right now laughing at everyone getting upset over his dumbass comments.

Most likely Mark Fox right?

Where do you work? I need to make sure I never go there.

KB knows better than the Vegas Sharps, NBA GMs, talent evaluators, college scouts, ESPN, big shoe companies, etc. Is there anything thing he DOESN'T know??

We all know the lottery is rigged anyway, maybe the NBA will help us out since we at least somewhat tried unlike Phoenix and Memphis.

Oh wait, you're right. That's a good point. I guess we're stuck with Mark Fox.

Ok how about this. If Mark Fox is hired by the Atlanta Hawks as their head coach I will never post here again. Will you do the same if it doesn't happen? There's a higher chance of LeBron joining the Hawks then Mark Fox. You must just be trying to get reactions out of people at this point because there's no way you honestly believe we would try to hire him. Let's call up Paul Hewitt too while we're at it I'm sure he'd be happy to join.

Mark Fox?? Like the UGA coach? LMFAO
