  1. In the significantly tougher west with no cap flexibility and a mediocre roster. If the Hawks manufactured a trade for AD we would have cap space to go into FA to find a guy or 2 to play next to him with the flexibility. I agree it probably isn't happening but no one last year thought the Pelicans would trade for Boogie or that Kyrie would be a member of the Celtics.
  2. I'm not saying he is but if AD comes available or any other players at or above a star level via trade or or FA I want the hawks at least kicking the door and that requires tradable/intriguing contracts and assets. We have a lot of future picks and idk if we take all of them all I'm saying. I also love Kent so only if it makes sense but to put a lock around him would be foolish.
  3. But if for example Kawhi or AD became available and Kent's contract in someway hampered the ability to acquire them then it is a bad contract and thats the point. The hawks need to have only assets on the roster that ready us to make that kind of move. The hawks need to constantly be ready to make savvy moves and Kent's large contract isn't exactly something you can get creative with.
  4. They were rebuilding kinda if you remember. They went 41-41 and let Dwight walk who was their second best player. Had they signed Baze (they offered slightly more than the hawks) they never would have had the opportunity to sign CP3. That is the point AHF is making that the hawks may lose an opportunity with his number on the books.
  5. I'd actually probably start Prince, but Kent was arguably our best player when he was healthy so I think Bud would start Kent at least early in the year
  6. Dennis is not a good fit with Doncic due to both their weakest games on offense being 3pt shooting and we attempt a ton of 3s in Bud's system. Either Schröder or Bud has to go or Bud has to change his system (which I don't see happening.)
  7. Not arguing that but Doncic isn't a great shooter. Schröder, Baze, Doncic, Collins, Dedmon would probably be the worst 3pt shooting starting 5 in the NBA. Moves would have to be made we shoot a ton of 3s. We are top 10 in 3pt attempted even this year.
  8. This is ridiculous this is you not knowing NBA rules. There is a minimum amount of cap space NBA teams have to spend (almost certain it is 90%) every year 2.5 million if anything helps the hawks if they are trying to tank because it is less salary they have to add via FA.
  9. He would be a terrible fit with Collins solid player though.
  10. http://www.espn.com/nba/game?gameId=400975809 meanwhile the suns are losing by 30 at home to the Pistons who are 31-39
  11. Schröder Just dropped 40+ pts in a win over the #1 defensive team in the NBA I'm so confused rn.
  12. We are about to get a win against a western conference playoff team on the road.
  13. lol! Ingles and Mitchell are a combined 2-15 from 3 against our stellar wings.
  14. Donovan Mitchell needs to learn we his 3pt shot just isn't falling.
  15. I agree but he will be a primary ball handler therefore, I don't think Dennis is a good fit. Dennis imo struggles to play off ball mainly due to his lack of shooting.
  16. His foul issues are similar to Collins I worry about that at the next level.
  17. I'll make you a bet right now Mark Fox is not the next hawks head coach. You are just irrational and spit out facts that aren't true 90% of the time. Want to respond to why Dallas has the 5th oldest roster in the NBA but are terrible.
  18. Some of the stuff you say KB is just throwing it at a wall and praying you are right.
  19. Dallas has the 5th oldest roster in the NBA. Portland 3 seed in the west has an average age of 24 which is tied for youngest. So while yes having an older roster is good it isn't the end all be all when the older players aren't really able to contribute to the future...
  20. Js the 76ers tank worked in most people's eyes.

    Minny

    WYM???????? He had 14 and 8 in 45 minutes last night but its okay he is an all around player!
  22. I'd say it is 2-4 years (after this year) if we do this right through the draft. I could see Schlenk exploring trades should players like Kawhi, AD, etc come available.
  23. Why wouldn't Prince be here? You are throwing out a random number without doing any back research. The longest drought in the east is the 76ers at 5 years which ends this year with a roster that has more talent and upside than any hawks team has ever had I'd take that.
