  1. I would love to have KAT but I doubt it will happen. KAT is a CAA client and if he gets traded it will be to the Knicks. Leon Rose and World Wide West use to be represent CAA. That's how they got Masai to trade O.G., who is also a CAA client. Masai knew O.G. was opting out next year and would sign with the Knicks anyway, so he got what he could, Quickley and Barrett. I heard about a rumor today that the Knicks will not make Mitchell Robinson apart of a trade for KAT. The wheels are in motion and I truly believe KAT will be a Knick by or at the trade deadline.
  2. Joe Johnson. He was really good but we didn't have enough good pieces around him. He had everything. Shooting, handles, passing, defense, and attitude.
  3. I hope he clears waivers and we sign him to a two-way deal.
  4. I went with Trae, KAT, and DJM as the best because the offense would be hard to stop but the defense would be the main issue unless we were able to keep OO. I think the worst would be Trae, JB, and DJM because the lineup would be to redundant for me. I would prefer the Trae, Siakam, DJM more than Trae, Jaylen, DJM because of the damage that Siakam could do inside, off the dribble, and on defense.
  5. Yes. Dominique Wilkins was the greatest Atlanta Hawk of all-time. Many people just automatically think that Nique was only a dunker. The man had a nice jumper and outstanding low post game. Al Horford was one of the most consistent players in his prime but certainly not the best. Mark Pruce was good but he was defintely not Steve Nash. Price was a great shooter but he didn't have the passing skills of Nash and he played at a slower tempo if I remember correctly. I definitely go by the eye test.
  6. Coach: Mike Fratello Dikembe Mutombo and Al Horford PF: Bob Petit and Kevin Willis SF: Dominique Wilkins and Lou Hudson SG: Joe Johnson and Steve Smith PG: Trae Young and Pistol Pete Maravich I know you just asked for 10 so I gave you my 10. I'm also giving you my third team: Walt Bellamy, PF: Paul Millsap, SF Cliff Hagen, SG Joe Caldwell, and PG Mookie Blaylock
  7. Terrell Phoenix is close with 2 Batmans and 1 Robin.
  8. I still prefer KAT but I love Siakam's defensive ability, his ability to get to the basket at will, his hustle, and also his playmaking. Hopefully his 3pt. shot improves. He's a winner.
  9. With all of this chatter on the site today I would rather have KAT than Siakam but I certainly wouldn't mind either if the price isn't too steep. Please remember guys that most of us are just passionate about our Hawks and hopefully posters can learn to respect each other as well. How's that back Sothron?
  10. Thanks for all the fun memories JC. I hope Utah let's you pick and roll like the old days. I also hope you keep putting people on posters, as long as it's not us.
  11. I like Dre. I believe he's had a hard time coming back from those injuries. It might be a mental thing. At one time it appeared his handles got better. Dre is still a bargain at 20 plus million as a wing. He has to get more touches.
  12. I wasn't running away from this discussion, I just had to let my phone recharge. I'm an Hawks fan first and foremost and if we get KAT I will root for him like no other. My point was simple: Is it wise and in our best interest to acquire a player who has had a major injury history for $295 - 300 million dollars left on his contract? PS: Those players who might become available before and during the season and/or at the trade deadline IMO are. Giannis, Embiid, KAT, and Lavine.
  13. No disrespect to our insiders but it just doesn't add up. KAT is a great offensive talent and horrendous defensive player. Sometimes it's painful watching this guy play defense. He appears to be a great person off the court but he simply isn't a winning player IMHO. I would be hesitant to acquire the $250-300 million in a player who can't stay healthy. That's business malpractice. By the trading deadline their could be a couple of big time players available. We have to be patient and ready to strike when these players become available. Now is not the time.
  14. Neither team can find the hoop. We have about 17 turnovers in the first half. We're down by two at the half. I'm impressed by our team. They're really competing.

    AJ or JJ

    Great question Spud. I went back and forth but I couldn't pick one. But I broke it down to this: It depends on what kind of team I have. If I had a team of great shooters at I would choose JJ but if I had a team that was full of non-shooters I would choose AJ.
