Nobody made him say those things. And I don’t think anybody gave gearon a pass. Like I said ferry was just dumb enough to give them ammo on him when he was universally like by all his bosses. He prolly still would have kept his job had he got out front of it and put on the ole remorseful interview. But he dint he ran and hid took his buyout money. And I challenge anybody that didn’t see anything wrong with it. Go in to your job tomorrow and say deragatory statements about the people you work with see if it’s a problem.

I get that but this reminds me of when embarrassingly one of the falcons s asked one of the players they were scouting did he like men. (Generalizing of course) but point goes in this day that is a no no. And simply something that you should avoid. Nobody is interested in giving people passses anymore. ASG ownership group was terrible and robbed Atlanta of so much but if ferry was moronic enough to give them the ammo to make him the fall guy or use him to accomplish this then he deserved what he got.

My contention is that he was gonna sell that team off in the hope of obtaining bigger assets. His convocation with horford would have been intresting cause the hesitation that he presented with ferry would have shipped his ass out instead of getting left in the rain at the drive in.

My take is he’s a decent coach. But his ego is terrible. My take is ressler and Schlenk did try to work with him but clearly he wanted out. He was stripped of his power for a reason. That said coaching would be a B+. With his gym tenure nocking him down to a d minus hell I could even argue a F for him. That said he’s somewhere in the middle. And for those that keep insisting the hawks had assets you need to take off those rose colored glasses. A lot of the guys on the hawks would be fringe rotation/ dnp cd guys on other teams. And you simply can’t let talent walk without some form of compensation. From his bungling of horford,to the trade of korver, to the milsap he’s gone naw I want to keep him shit. He failed.

He’s intriguing especially if he can shoot it like that in nba games. Pretty much will have to to survive in the modern nba.

Jaren is intriguing. I don’t see the star potential but he should project as solid. But the two guys I want in a hawks uniform are melton and Troy brown. Bama I honestly have looked at much. I know he blocks shots but not sure of his offensive capabilities.

That would be less than ideal. Battle is intriguing but I don’t know if he goes that high. I thought this one was intresting though https://armchairdraftscout.wordpress.com/2018/04/23/2018-nba-mock-draft/ the only change I would take melton with the last pick.

Cough cough!!! Denver

Doubtful. I think Collins will be fine nothing great but nothing too shabby either. In the future you will see that Denver’s overpay was Atlanta’s gain.

Milsap also this yr would have been an overpay at this point no thank you.

Defiantly agree. Bud has interviewed with two franchises that literally make the hawks look like a Cush gig. Tank is not the problem. It makes sense that he feels some type of way about losing his power that said he stunk at the job.

Love milsap but he’s on the wrong side of his career to expect a resurgence. Yes I do agree milsap will be better but how much so for Denver at this stage.

Besides Dennis who do we have that you would consider would be top twenty at there position. Whiffed on draft picks. One thing I love a about the spurs, warriors, Celtics of the world they love teams that over think things and take the best talent and worry about the other things later.

Yeah that as well I forgot to add that he was gonna trade guys while accumilating talent.

I still hold on to the belief ferry was gonna gut the hawks he just didn’t get to see it through.

He’s under contract and asked for permission to interview in Phoenix and god only knows where else. He is not on board with rebuilding it seems even though his gym descisions or lack ther of put the team in the position it is today. Like I said he can’t complain. He wants out clearly and Schlenk and ressler are happy to oblige him and not hold him hostage. Like I said earlier I’m fine with bud the coach but his power play that he’s seeking prolly won’t happen. I just asked that it get done and over with either he’s staying or going.

I don’t think bud is in position to tell anybody anything. His current situation is all on him. I mean he asked for permission to interview. His contract demands prolly won’t get met. Although I’m hoping New York sells him the world because I don’t want anyone that doesn’t want to be a hawk here.

Playing time, learning a new system. Getting used to the travel and 82 game season.

People have there minds made up about this but the hawks had been chasing Dwight long before Schlenk came into the picture. Hell ressler too.

Think the point he’s shooting for is when the hawks seemed to be going the nuclear route ie trading korver. Only to suddenly halt and say we are going to make a run at it. From there horford bolted because the hawks wouldn’t give him the max or either it was the lack of support or acquiring Dwight. Then signing bazemore to a deal that is extremely team unfriendly because while he made strides this year he will never truly earn that contract. Then turn around and don’t trade milsap when logic says you should because that contract will likely hamper you and barely making the playoffs and got swept. Supposedly Wes wanted to rebuild bud wanted to stay competitive. Bud the gym was horrible just like Stan the gym in Detroit. His only saving grace is he didn’t deplete draft capital like Stan.

I can’t even believe this was in doubt. If healthy ad is one of the bigs in the league.

I like Stackhouse. Don’t know if he’s there yet though. But him and fizdale are intriguing.

Nothing is apples to apples of course. Which is why I wouldn’t dismiss him as a prospect. I wish I knew the future but I would bet on bagley long term.

I see the logic of what he was going for but we needed an upgrade at pg. instead he went for his sf.

If we all could peer into the future. Knight deciding to run it back with ty lue was one of many blunders he made. Should have been a pg. he didn’t think enough of Paul or d will. But regardless at this moment after ayton and donic he’s prolly the next talented healthy player ( porter ) so you take him and worry about it later.
