TS likes and wants to resign Jeff. Why? I don't know. He was worse than Trae defensively and while our offense was solid with him, he never took threes. Skal was wanted by TS and still is. He did play well in Portland before he got hurt.

Likely additions to our bench: Dedmon One of the wings (Kevin, Cam, Hunter) Draft pick #6: Ball/Toppin/Hali/Okoro/Hayes/Deni/etc Prince returns #19 overall pick if we don't package it to move up. I can see S. Bey or Josh Green being the pick at this slot. PF via FA or trade Skal Bruno Teague 15th man open. Goodwin/50 on two-way deals We do not have a lot of slots open for vets in general. Who wants to be a 12th man and barely play or go to the G-League. Those are usually for kids.

I think a rotational vet at SF/PF and resigning Skal and Teague is probably what we are going to see.

Prime Al Horford and Millsap protecting him ain't walking through that down game. I agree on Ball. I am not even that high on his floor but it's the bench so the best he's going up against is Ish Smith and D.J. Augustin. Most backup PGs aren't even good. Doubt Atlanta will want a high maintenance guy like Oubre. He will be on the first plane packing.

For Obi Toppin I do. Maybe even Deni

I think we will end up with LaMelo, Haliburton or Okoro. I want Toppin but I truly think he will be gone at #3.

Guys like Caris, Zach, Buddy probably not available this year for a reasonable cost. Maybe next year, especially Hield.

I think his range is 4 or 7. Detroit seems to be the favorite of Ball, Haliburton or Hayes. I think they will draft one of the three. Edwards 1-3 Ball range- 1 or 6 Wiseman range- 1-3 Toppin - 3, 6, 7, 8, 10 Haliburton- 6-8, 10 Deni - 3-6, 8 Okoro - 3-11 widest range That's it for Hawks guys

I know some people will hate it but if we land LaMelo, Prince, and Oubre (likely traded again). It's not that bad of an offseason for the bench considering it was Wallace Rookie Reddish Turner Parker Jones Last year to start the season.

That was true that Damian Jones, Alex Len, and Bruno Fernando wasn't the best center rotation and it was the worst. We got Dedmon back and added Capela. We did ourselves justice at that position. The bench will be handle this offseason and the draft.

You're right but you and @thecampster. AD option is OCT 14 though https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2020/06/new-dates-set-for-option-decisions-salary-guarantees-more.html#:~:text=For instance%2C as Shams Charania,17 instead of June 29.

Not exactly. Usually the player option deadline is before the draft. If he opts out, he will be a FA anyway but why would he do that knowing he will get 5 million free dollars? Right now, the Hawks can't do any trade. Any trade cannot be done till the 2020-21 calendar offseason.

I don't know if it will or wouldn't. Considering how the industry feels about Oubre, I wouldn't be surprised that flipping his 2020 salary would have more value than #26 to PHX. Hawks got options. Just knowing what we want, shooting is a premium. Not sure it does but I know his personality hasn't rubbed people in PHX right or Washington or Kansas.

Before you ask: 1. Brooklyn trades Prince and #19 for a future 2nd rounder and the rights to Marcus Eriksson 2. Boston trades Enes Kanter and #26 for cash considerations (3 million) and the rights to Alpha Kaba. Atlanta cuts Enes Kanter once the trade is completed.

This is my prediction FYI. Nets #19 pick and Boston's #26 pick for 10 but honestly, I can see #19 for #10 and Oubre who PHX wants out of his deal.

They will keep #6. They will use the other 1sts to get Neismith

If I had to guess considering the money this year. That the Hawks will end up with 3 1st rounders going into the draft and likely only have two by the end of the night. I think Aaron Nesmith is be the Hawks main target. Probably will trade with PHX to get him.

People in the organization like him. I think he will be getting a chance to make the roster in TC. Maybe even another two way deal but it's unlikely he gets his contract exercised

Masai probably has the most insane hit rate with trades I've seen outside of Ferry and better than Ferry. He inherited Lowry and DeRozan Raped the Knicks trading Bargs Ibaka for Ross worked for both teams Always trading and moving bench players like Lou Williams, Vasquez which was a terrible trade for Milwaukee https://www.raptorshq.com/2017/2/15/14624312/toronto-raptors-trade-history-best-transaction Had some draft hits from one class. VanFleet and Siakam from a weak draft. G league development advancement helped The Kawhi rental might be the GOAT rental deal of all time The Gasol trade was fair but Toronto needed it to be champions. They just made a lot of good moves. TS has a good draft record in the 1st round but his 2nd round work isn't good and his trades have all been losses so far outside of the Brooklyn deal which ultimately was a win for Brooklyn as they landed KD and Kyrie. TS does have to improve a lot and I hope he does. His trade IQ is lacking.

You really on one. Naw, TS thought the vets he added would help. They didn't

I get your anger but this ain't it

You gonna have so much egg on your face on this one. Keep posting stinkers. Hey @AHF, don't lock this thread when the draft comes. Some people been showing their ass in here

I don't think Graham was ever a target of ours

I don't think he's forgotten by the organization. His name is mentioned with Jeff as someone they want to bring back.

That's true but they be shitting on ours in the process.
