Dennis should have a good game in offense against Chacho Rodriguez.

This type of player fits perfectly in Bud's system. I have never been as hyped with the Hawks as this year...

They should re-sign Sullinger or they will be the worst rebounding team in the league by far. They already were 26th in DRB%. If Alice doesn't perform well, it wouldn't surprise me if Ainge trades him for a Jimmy Butler type of player.

Horford has put himself in a pretty dangerous position. He has lost any love from Hawks' fans. He will be hated in Atlanta now. And no one can guarantee he will success in Boston, their fans will expect a lot from their new "star".

Sullinger was their best rebounder by far, he was a great rebounder, and they were a poor rebounding team. If they don't re-sign him, watch out for Tristan Thompson, Drummond, Whiteside, Valanciunas, Biyombo and Howard grab 20 rebounds against them. The East is getting bigger.

I want to see the great big men in the NBA play against the Warriors. They could have problems. I want the Pelicans and Timberwolves to have good years, so we can receive Minny's pick and Anthony Davis and KAT can put problems on the Warriors.

It depends on these three players: -Dennis Schröder -Taurean Prince -Dwight Howard They will be the key to success this year. We know what we are getting from anyone else (except Bembry, who could also become a good bench player).

No problem. Now they will upgrade Horford's status to "superstar".

Oh well, I made I mistake. I thought I heard that a pass for a three pointer never counted as an assist, but I searched the rule: An assist in Europe is: -When you pass the ball and, if there is no dribble and your teammate scores (here is the difference with the NBA, you can dribble once or twice and still it's an assist) -When you pass the ball to midcourt in a fastbreak and it ends in points, but only if there is no opposition to the basket

That's not an assist for example. An assist for a three pointer doesn't count in FIBA basketball.

I hope he isn't signing with the Celtics...

Personally I'm hyped about DeAndre Bembry. I love the way he plays. I think he could become one of my favorite players, he could be a good bench player this year. I also read that he's a winner, and I love it.

There are a lot of FA PG right now. But not sure if they are good fit or are in our price range. I would like someone who could also play some minutes with Dennis. Could Deron Williams play here? I always thought he was great player off ball. It will be harder to upgrade at SF. Maybe a trade, or hope that we found a gem in Taurean Prince.

BTW the Celtics were 26th at DRB% and they just signed Al Horford. Their best rebounder was Sullinger and he's now a RFA. I want to see Tristan Thompson against them...

1. Backup PG 2. Upgrade at SF 3. ¿Backup PF? Right now everything else it's ok or even better than OK. Dennis, Bazemore, Millsap and Dwight is a good core. With the addition of the rookies and the players we still had we have a great combo of bench players at the wing from the bench. Splitter it's a great backup center (we could also move him), and Edy will remain as our 3rd center. So we should now face our main needs.

Maybe they are saying that if he can only average 3.5rpg against the Cavs in the Playoffs, it couldn't get any worse even if he gets older...

This. I'm devastated right now. It won't be easy. We lost a big oportunity today of becoming a relevant team...but I still trust a lot Budenholzer. I just hope to get up tomorrow and see things in a different way.

I don't want him to get booed. I just want Dwight Howard to grab 20 rebounds on his face.

Well, there will be a lot of players in 2017 and 2018 who will sign bigger contracts.

You are right, it should be closer to 5 years 130M... we are negotiating the second biggest contract in NBA history so far (Mike Conley got the biggest yesterday....)

I feel like Al Horford is playing with us. If not, he would have already chosen a team. He has the right to, but I don't like the situation. I hope we sign him for 120M 5 years or similar.

I think we could give Cleveland problems if we re-sign Al and move Paul Millsap for a SF (like Gallinari, someone you have mentioned a lot).

We are not keeping Millsap, Al, and D12. We could also get some money (not a lot, I would want a starter SF in return) for Millsap...

My only concern about them is Nate McMillan. If they had kept Vogel I would be sure they were a top team in the East. That roster is nice.

Myles Turner is the starter, not Big Al...
