  1. @capstone21 @Sothron I know you guys are really down on Trae but give the guy a chance. He will win you over. He was built for this league. He’s our Zeke and Nash. My prediction: He will be the best point guard in Hawks history. (Not saying too much but a lot better than we’ve ever had...EVER..Mookie Doc included imo).
  2. I know I know ...I wanted Doncic too along with all of Slovenia. But I’m looking at it like it was a Magic (Doncic) Zeke (Trae) draft.
  3. We did well. Luka will be a star but so will Trae. Kid’s got crazy passing skills and is the best shooter in the draft. Huerter the 2nd best and we got him too. Spellman is another great all around center and a winner at Nova. We didn’t go super sexy in the draft but that might be a good thing. Sexy would have included MPJ who would have been nice with Trae but we didn’t move up. We still have a lot of building to do but we have a blueprint. It’s to our score everyone and shoot 50 3’s a game. LETS GO HAWKS!!!! I KNOW SOME OF YOU ARE DOWN BUT WE GOT A ZEKE IN TRAE! Forget Curry that’s not a good comparison. Nash or Zeke. Trae isn’t going away. He will make you guys regret booing him.. u know online..
  4. Lol ya next year for sure. Possibly the one after that as well. But ultimately it’ll be like a video game .. 2022 NBA Finals Game 7 Hawks 157 Kings 156 MVP Trae Young
  5. I’ll give us an A- Doncic will be a star and so will Trae. Again, I think Trae is the best shooting prospect I’ve seen in a while and his passing is on point. Doncic had size and international flare on Trae. Kevin Huerter was the best shooter out of the shooting guards and he’s got a machine like release. Needs to beef up fast. Spellman is the best shooting center in the draft or up there if not the best. Not sexy but we definitely have an identity now...we want to score 200 a night and give up 199.
  6. Oh no no no...I’d like to make a wager with you that he isn’t. Any changing of the avatar is fine with me. Trae is real.
  7. Oooooohhhh Doncic and Ramona the Pest by Bev Cleary I like that backcourt a lot...at least temporarily or transitional bridge.
  8. I agree. Now I’m not comparing him to Curry by any means because Trae is a way better Nash type passer but I remember reading a quote about Steve Kerr wanting to trade up in the 09 draft to the 7th pick and take Curry for the Suns..He said something along the lines of..I envision a lot of kids in Phoenix wearing little Curry jerseys. I see little kids in Atlanta doing the same with Trae. I wouldn’t be mad.
  9. I’m pro both..2 of my top 5 I think..I did love Bagley too. I can see a scenario where Trae shines...isn’t that who quavo from migos wanted ?
  10. F all this I need to party with y’all!
  11. I think the Joe comparison is a lazy one. Sadly, I haven’t thought long enough and can’t seem to be able to compare him to anybody in the past. He’s just a new style player with an old school game. He plays the game like he’s a soccer player trying to find guys that are open. High praise here here and I haven’t heard this anywhere but he’s a poor man’s combo of Magic and Bird. Even using the word poor, that’s huge praise. He improvises well...he is a situational player. Crafty and smart. Look if all these kids are gambles, I’d like to take the best gamble and to me it looks like him.
  12. Dear lord why did I start this...smh im going to a buffet! Skipping lunch sucks!
  13. You are really changing my game plan up here...dang I might have to go Mexican with a carne asada! Burrito ?
  14. Cap ? you despise lil guards! I don’t think I’ll ever forgot that. Three things in life are certain. 1. Death 2. Taxes 3. @capstone21 hates anyone under 6’5” I’m great with both. I hate jjj by himself but Luka will make a lot of people look good and he could be one of the biggest beneficiaries.
  15. Orlando might do that for themselves. They don’t have a pg worth anything. They haven’t had one since Penny...jameer was ok.
  16. Just tellem..whoa whoa whoa..put a lil more in there cowboy ?
  17. If we draft Doncic I’m having dessert too F it!
  18. I like anything but curry (bad association with the player) and Mac n cheese is sick. @kg01 Get ur tandoori fix on! Sick as in good
  19. Did you just call him a ho? When your at squawk you keep it clean mister!
  20. What kind of food will you be eating tonight? (What, you thought the fat guy WASN’T gonna ask this)... No seriously, please list the favs.. I know @Gray Mule vice is corn dogs, or was that only during playoff time, well, this is our playoffs so whatever you’re eating...enjoy! I need ideas I’m thinking Pizza, BBQ, or Italian. ps For the drunks like @kg01 and @macdaddy, list your booz too. And @MaceCase, well you just sit there lookin pretty.
