    Just gonna go ahead and say Collins is already exceeding my expectations. Did not see him being THIS NBA ready so quickly, gonna be interesting to see him against the more experienced players in the league though. He's looking like he really could blossom into a star though.

    Collins is a straight bruiser.... very Stoud/Griffin type player.... so explosive... such a nasty physical player... hell I'll dan Quinn it... "he fast and physical"

    I'd take Smart and pray that we could fix his jumper. That thing might be broken though, he still distributes and defends really well.

    There's nothing to fix when he's in Phillips arena he turns into Steph Curry. 

    On a serious note I'd take smart and Bradley... wouldn't want Crowder even tho he is a hometown guy. 

  11. So what guys have we been even linked to?

    To answer your question....the 2018 draftees.

    I get that but we need at least 13 players for next season's roster.... currently we only have 9 (excluding Alpha) and even if we do sign Bogan we still would have to get 2/3 more guys... 

     

    Dennis Schröder

    DeAndre Bembry

    Malcolm Delaney

    Taurean Prince

    John Collins

    Tyler Dorsey

    Kent Bazemore

    Miles Plumlee

    Marco Bellineli 

    Alpha Kaba? If he evens plays over here? 

  13. Millsap to Minnesota or Denver?

    Oh man if I could actually finally get Dieng I would have my draft night dream of Dieng and Schröder being our 1/5 combo to build around. Can we get Pekovic as well? What happened to him I never hear about him anymore. 

    Joakim Noah like stuff he's just less talked about cause he's not in a new town market

    Well with just Jimmy Butler added to last years team, I think they will make the playoffs. Wiggins won't have to guard the other teams best wing anymore which should help him a ton. I'm scared they will be the 4 seed at this point.

    Asking me the Spurs,Warriors,Rockets,and Thunder are the top 4 seeds next season just by how the roster are set up currently but their are a lot of moving parts still to be dealt 

  17. If we are not competing for a title........

    It's not a problem if your goal is to establish a losing culture and derail the great player development system the Hawks have built up under Bud.

    Why does the player development have to go away? We'd be like Miami last season. Competitive but just outside the playoff bubble...

    I could see something like this:

    HAWKS send a signed Millsap to MINNESOTA.

    MINNESOTA sends ATLANTA: Ricky Rubio, Jordan Hill, Shabazz Muhammad, and the draft rights to Justin Patton.

    ATLANTA flips Ricky Rubio to a 3rd team for another pick/young player. Interestingly, the JAZZ have been interested in Rubio, and they just traded away Trey Lyles. How about a trade then involving Rubio for Derrick Favors?

    WAYYYYY overvaluing Rubio.... they've been trying to deal him for the last 2 seasons and still haven't found a deal.

    I think that'd be a great deal for them. They'd be a WCF contender for sure if Wiggins and KAT can defend like the others. I don't really see what's in it for us though. Patton is nice, I liked Lavine a lot but since he's already gone that hurts. Tyus Jones could be a good backup pg. 

    I'm just not sure they'd have the best offer available.

    I'd take Gorgui as a solid PF options while the other 2 develop alongside Tyus 

  22. Concessions for Dennis.

    If Bud is the East Coach then Maybe Dennis will deserve it... but the Line of PGs in front of Dennis is Long.  Didn't Wall show that he was the superior talent in the playoffs.   Dennis got a long wait to go... and while we have been talking about his offense... Did anybody say anything about his defense?

    If you're under the impression Dennis is the reason why we lost round 1 you're just hating....

    Let's see.  Irving, Wall, Rondo, Lowry, Walker, Thomas, Dragic, Lin... hell even Payton... Yeah... Dennis makes the Allstar game if he catches all those guys with a Tonya Harding pipe to the knee or something.

    Dennis is the 4th best PG in the East next year... only ones better are Kemba,Irving,and Wall

  25. Would you trade for Porzingis at the risk of HAVING to take Noah back as well?

    Theres just some players you pull the trigger for on a massive deal and he's one of them if we are looking at the future. 

    Draft picks are worthless most of the time. I think we nailed on a few good draft picks and trades and now it's time to top it off.

    If we were to somehow get a Porzingis to play the 5 then Sap would surely resign and we could go into the luxury for THJ... however we'd need to get rid of a Baze so maybe NYK could take him also? 

    Schröder

    Hardaway

    Prince

    Millsap

    Porzingis

     

    I drool over that lineup^
