  1. 51 wins. None will matter if we don't get to the title game.
  2. After today's signings I can't see how anyone would think dumping Teague would be saving us money. It would take well over $15 million just to get someone even close to his talent level. Teague is going nowhere for the next 2 years.
  3. Well atleast we will get the best out of Milsap with the 2/3 year deal. Hate to see what contracts are going to look like in 2 years ....
  4. It would have to be Horford/Dennis for Cousins and probably some picks that we would of given away anyhow. It would make the resign Sapp/DMC crowd stance make more sense and give us a great presence inside. Randolph seemed to have alot of attitude problems before he went to Memphis and maybe Cousin would benefit to a big change scenery. Whats the saying about having one knucklehead in the locker room but don't give him a friend. Well we don't have any so we can afford to take a chance if this prayer is answered.
  5. This is my main problem with letting Coach Bud run the roster ... he may be too personally invested in some of these players to see the other problems with our lineup. Rebounding, consistent scoring from the post, and defense around the rim were pretty bad come playoff time. I don't see how bringing DMC and Milsap both back fixes any of that.
  6. Lets hope not but so far its not looking very good.
  7. Great 75% of the regular season means nothing unless you get a title. Hawks really should of hired a true GM because letting a second year coach pick his roster might be too much. Sometimes you liked the people that you work with which makes objective decisions regarding whether their the right fit or paying them their true value. I'm afraid we won't shake up this roster enough this offseason to see us progress to the finals.
  8. They looked like crap on the players IMO ... guess we're the Oregon ducks of the NBA now. Changing uniform/image isn't going to make the Hawks fanbase bigger or more dedicated. Adding the right players in FA might help but ATL has always been a fickle market in every sport.
  9. Nope. Like the current/former uniforms better.
  10. I'm that way with most of my sports teams whether its Hawks, UGA, or Falcons. I will sometimes watch the CFC or Superbowl but I don't remember the last NBA finals I actually watched the majority of a game or series.
  11. This might be Millsaps last chance for a big long term deal ... like you said who knows what he'll be looking at getting if he signs a 2 year deal. He's not a Lebron and age is creeping up on Milsap. Market might get flooded with similar talent in a couple of years and all he will get offered is one or 2 year deals. If DMC gets offered a 12-15m 4 yr deal he'd be crazy not to take it. His stock is about as high as it could be in my opinion with his playoff performance. 50/50 chance he's playing at this level on another team in a couple of years. Definitely take the guaranteed money if I'm his agent.
  12. Depends on how many you have also. If you have multiple offenses you can get prison time in many states.
  13. Lots of players contracts were slated to end this year and next year specifically because of the cap space jump. Thats what the agents wanted because everyone knew the salary cap bump was coming ... look at even Lebron's contract that ends next year. We should just be happy to we had them for 2 years and in DMC's case it worked well for both sides. If he flopped it wouldn't have hurt us but we got 2 great years out of him. He earned his money and someone is going to pay for his services.
  14. Paul and DMC were the hardest working guys on this team. I really appreciated his play this season even if he struggled after his injury. If we didn't have Horford and were signing a center I'd liked to see him back.
