  1. Hawks Meeting With Dwight

    in Homecourt

    Posted

    Now, I see many of you would be pretty excited about Sap + Horford + DH on the court.

     

    Let me remind you that more and more teams are going small because TODAY it's more efficient.

    Let me remind you that last year's Nba champions used to play D Green (a not-so-big) PF at the C with insane Net Rtg.

    Let me remind you that Cleveland this year played most of the time with only one big man, and furthermore it sometimes used to be Kevin Love (not the ideal rim protector, I guess). 

     

    Just to to point it out.

    If we really sign Howard I don't see why we should keep both Millsap and Horford.

    Sure, we would have top Nba combination at the 4-5 sports for all 48 minutes, but we would still have a SF black hole.

    'Sap can maybe play the 3, but for few minutes and not at his actual potential. And Splitter would be useless.

     

    If we really sign Howard, we need a (sign and?) trade.

    Supes, I know you have a lot of AL love.  But let's not deny facts.  Dwight still is a top shot blocker and rebounder in this league.  That means that he's a top defender.   I understand that Al is a versatile defender and he can guard smaller players.  That's great.  However, when real Centers walk in the room.. Al has historically had trouble.   I believe that Bud and Co. believes that the can fix Dwight and make him into what we need. 

     

     

    "He's a top shot blocker and rebounder... That makes him a top defender"

    1940 nba here we come.

    Scott's contract is not guaranteed. They can just renounce it and they are under the cap, so salaries don't have to match. They could however trade Splitter for a future 2nd rounder in a salary dump, Korver for a future second rounder in a salary dump and waive Scott to clear up almost 17 million in additional cap space (not including min roster cap holds).

    Trading Korver?!?!? That's mad...

     

    trading korver to keep bazemore? That's even worse

    That fits. Wanted to mention that when Phil's triangle teams won they had a great ball handling shooting guard but one of the knocks on Baze is his ball handling especially being out of control driving to the rim. A lot of money involved for a not so perfect fit for them.

    Phil J chose Hornacek and now rose, talking again about TPO is silly.

  7. Coach Bud talks Free Agency and Hawks can’t continue to have top free agents ignore them

    I think it's very easy.  They let Harrison Barnes go.   

    You can easily put Horf at the 4 and Green at the 3.    Horf has shown that he can hit an open outside shot.   Same way that they would have afforded KD, they can afford Al. 

    Check it out..

    Sure they can let Barnes go, but I guess they'll think more than twice before changing all those efficient equilibria they created.

    Alright... Let me paint you this picture.

    IF Durant decides to go either to OKC, Boston, or NY.  GS will initiate talks with Al...  

    Think about what they can give Al.  A large salary.  A PF position.  A winning environment.  A chance to be a part of the team that doesn't depend on him being the best player on the team...

    IF that happens, Bud and company are saying that we're going after D12. 

    Get ready for it.. You were warned:

    Even if GS wants Horford, they have to give up something. 

    I'm not so sure they're willing to change their roster for a player who's not KD.

    If we could get Crowder and Bradley we don't have to resign Baze, what would give us the cap to sign Howard.

    PG: Dennis 36 + Bradley 12
    SG: Bradley 20 + Korver 14 + THJ 14

    So guys and gal, how looks this 14 players roster to you?

    PG Dennis, (Bradley), Patterson
    SG Bradley, Korver, THJ
    SF Crowder, Prince, Bembry
    PF Al, Kris, Musky
    C D12, Splitter, Edy
     

    But I doubt Cs will send Crowder and Bradley out...

    THJ out

    Which team needs a PF and can sell an above avarage SF and maybe additionally a servicable BU PG?

    May need a multi team deal. Which teams are PF buyers and which are possible SF seller?

    C's for Bradley and/or Crowder  + Nets 1st pick?

  17. The importance of Glue Guys...

    Why not Good Player = Glue Guy??

    For all of you all saying that a glue guy is inconsequential... Would you be so quick to trade Draymond Green if you're GS??  Let's make it more interesting, if you're GM for GS, would you pull the trigger on a Green for KD SNT?  Let's see here who understands Basketball and Who just plays NBA 2k16...

     

    D Green is a good player, not a glue guy. Glue guys are those complementary players that can add their contribute by doing good "marginal" thing, which of course are fundamental to succeed, but still they're marginal.

    Draymond Green does not fall in this definitions, he's a central column.

    All nba teams need champions first and glue guys next.
