Quote: You can get some good information on RealGM, just not on the Hawks forum. The keep up with league stories, rumors, and transactions really well. Some of the posters understand their teams, cap situations, and cap rules better than people on Hawksquawk. Jaywalker leaving Realgm was a major blow to the Hawks forum. Jaywalker use to talk on espn, but realgm came into the picture, and he stayed with them. I miss the articles he wrote the most, because I don’t think the Hawk writers on realgm (can’t remember his name) are a step down, but they still are still nice to read, and it’s not like I would expect a Jaywalker article from them once Jay left.

Quote: This place is like home This is the response that I think was expected. Hawksquawk is entirely about Hawks basketball with a few different areas to talk about other things and I get why you would feel the way you do.

Combo of Mags and Bogut hurt him, but down the road Bogut will be able to produce better numbers, and clearly he's a very solid player.

Good news for the Raptor fans and it's been hard to come by these days.

Great trade for Atlanta, no doubt, but it depends on the salary of Nene.

Point guard and shooting guard are set for the Bulls and I don't see them moving them. I would be a wonderful thing to grab one of the two guys, but it's not going to happen, and I don't think we're willing to offer up what it would take.

trade can't happen due to the draft pick, future draft pick, yes, but not the 06 pick. The Knicks would have to hold the player until the free agent period and still it's not given that Al would want to sign with the Knicks.

Actually I hope Vince falls to the Raiders. They are saying it will happen, if the Titans pass on Vince, and this draft is going to be one to watch.

Great game by the Atlanta Braves and AJ is killing the ball.

Compare the two boards on how you see them, the mods, and the overall Hawks board. I know Hawksquawk is an entire site for Hawks basketball, but I would like to see what the rest of you think about the topics from the two boards, and whatever else you would like to share.

Good movie and worthy of buying. Sounds as if you liked it and connected with it.

Quote: Apparently Paxon likes Thomas and might take him with the top pick if they get it. That would be good news for us. Yes that would be GREAT news for us and I hope we get that type of luck.

I think Curry would still be nice to have, but overall I’m glad we passed on him due to his heart condition and the risk they he had. Dampier would have been a nightmare and I think the same about K-Mart.

Right, both the Ben TD wasn’t one, and the pass interference at the start of the game. I was only messing around with my other post, but serious those two helped the Steelers greatly.

I think we could get some talent and draft choices for Vick. I can’t imagine any trades being discussed until 3 or 4 year from now, but it’s interesting to talk about presently, and what could come from it. A west or east coast offense can’t be run properly until we build a solid offense line.

I like our chances with young Marvin Williams.

Quote: As much as i would like us to go 4-0. I think we will actully go 0-4 due to our road strugles. I agree. I'm now expecting an 0-4 road trip due to us not starting it off right tonight. Kings are going to be very hard, Lakers will show off with Kobe, and Pistons will look to stomp us into the ground at home.

We allowed this game to slip out of our hands and it’s disappointing.

I’m glad they’ve died out some, because all I was seeing was Al for Andre Miller trades and that’s not even a reality to happen.

Which two bigs are you talking about? Joel and? I don't see Billy Knight letting ZaZa go, because we would benefit from him greatly coming off our bench, if we signed a more impact center who knows how to block shots.

Your right people don’t understand ZaZa as a player and I question some “fans” because they talk about thing, but yet they come off like they’ve never watched a Hawks game. Shot blocking is what’s missing from ZaZa’s game. You hit it, but some just won’t seem to catch on.

Joe Johnson has shown that he’s a clutch player and I think Hawk fans should think most positive about him. He’s a key player for our future and now he’s shown that he’s more comfortable with the city and his role. Some fans were far from being happy, because we gave up Boris Diaw, and two first round picks. The thing is our coaching staffs didn’t make the transformation to the NBA a good one for Boris Diaw and now I’m very happy for him. He wouldn’t have done the things he’s doing for the Suns, if he will still a Hawks, because we tried to force him into being someone he’s not, and that’s a mistake that our coaching staffs have made often.

Quote: If the Hawks were to get Andre Miller via trade and lose Al, could we win 23-25 out of the remaining 35 games and make the playoffs this year? IF IF IF The Nuggets won’t trade Andre Miller, unless they get a semi star, and we aren’t looking to trade any of our young Hawks. It’s not going to happen, so how much longer must Hawk fans go on about Andre Miller? That’s one of the reasons why I can’t wait for the trade deadline to come and past.

Looks like you now have the answers to your questions. We missed out on a giant talent and by giant I mean a size that we could have really used. Billy Knight should have went after Diop stronger, but yet we allow another big man project turned promising player go.

I’m very happy with ZaZa and have been for the entire season. He has some major pressure on him and he still lacks rest. The young big man has been a prize of a signing for us, but I knew it would be, and that’s why I’m glad Billy Knight was able to see it. Glad to see you giving the young man some props D.
