Is rim pressure to you only attempts and not efficiency and attempts? I think it is reasonable to say his shot profile will look significantly different under Quin then it does now because that has been true of pretty much all the players under Quin. Now should it shift drastically no but it will improve

Probably losing Trae this summer anyways so…

Does that mean he applies less rim pressure because in his situation he shoots less at the rim then in ATL where shot diet is an emphasis?

Free throw rate doesn’t mean they don’t attack the rim lol. Watch BI this season before the knee injury he got to the rim and attacked gaps willfully. He’s shooting like 73% at the rim this season lol

Murray is a complete zero off ball. Ingram is more like a 20/100 lol. Not to mention Ingram applies way more rim pressure. Perfect fit offensively no but better then currently yes? If you want the perfect offensive fit with a star it’s not gonna be any wing in the league you need a big

He was attempting 6 a game when he had a pg. that’s more than enough. I believe 4 per game was catch and shoot. Off the top of my head I think that’s how many saddiq was getting this season (someone with a reputation for shooting 3s). Now imagine that in Quin offense lol you too hung up on his perception as a player

He stopped playing with a point guard like lonzo. This tweet from Grant Shirley is a direct comment on what BI said in their exit interview that he wishes they target PG and his best season came playing off jrue and lonzo

To be clear I don’t exactly love the idea of BI on the hawks or the player. Herb is who they are focused on and should be but I understand a world where BI is the best return they can get for DJM and he’s better fit and player to me than DJM

yeah probably. his tweet was about trae I was talking about dejounte though.

Correct I am saying the proposed deal at deadline was for DJM and will likely be discussed in variations again. CJ wouldn't be in it most likely or he'd go to a third team. You absolutely do not trade Trae for just Herb and CJ

I dont know what more you guys want then possibly the best perimeter defender on one of the best contracts in the league. DJM is not valuable around the league...

This guy hears things on the pels side. Now what he is suggesting is for Trae and not Dejounte but sharing to say what many of us already know. Hawks covet Herb more than anybody on the pels roster. The BI + Dyson deal is cool but it is not what they are focused on. They didn't take Herb for DJ + Onyeka at deadline but I think it will be a big conversation in the summer

and the hawks covet both of those guys over BI. Problem is they aren't available BI applies a ton of rim pressure which this team does not have currently

Dejounte is a horrible defender. You guys got to stop talking about his reputation as a defender from his lone SA year where he did well. He is only a good off ball defender. On ball he is awful and it doesn't matter what position he plays. Coby White just gave him 40 in their last game. DJM cannot guard a parked car

I mean comparing stats for one season doesn't do much to me when they are in different sitautions and DJM stats get a bump for when his first option was out for a month plus. Not to mention more assists doesn't mean you are a better playmaker by any stretch. DJM can't even make a lob pass. His assists are the most simple assists in the game.

Murray does literally nothing better on the basketball court than BI. Better scorer Bi, Better defender BI, better playmaker BI. Bigger Bi. Now he does have a far superior contract so i see the value side but BI potential contract also means nothing cause I doubt his injury history injury suggests he's getting that max

Casue BI is a better player and this draft class the tier of player from 10-21 won't be drastically different like other drafts. That account isnt a normal pels fan btw. He knows someone in the org

Its like 6 people lol. Just a dumb poll they run everyyear for these headlines

They should. Nice cost effective option for them to have in their wing rotation that we figure will take a hit in the summer with Dyson and BI

Feels like its only a matter of time the sides discuss. Hawks likely to go after marshall in FA too

This is a move that has me actually believing they’ll pay the tax next year. With ressler however it’s always wait and see

Any lineup with bogi has been massively successful last couple years but them two starting together doesn’t solve the biggest issues that have plagued us for years… poa defense

Bogi can't start in a backcourt with trae. The would need daniels to start for POA defense and to preserve bogi health

You guys still trying to make murray and trae working is one of the funniest things ever. all the information is right in front of you on how that pairing doesn't work yet people still saying keep them because they don't understand what they gave up for murray doesn't matter anymore. It is the worst two man lineup on the team. They have a better win percentage and better net rating when one sits. Murray is gone !!!

Just like with Hunter and Murray Quin will get this changed for Ingram lol. Ingram been significantly underrated this year and took a step back in scoring to playmake and defend. He is an ideal 2 next to Trae. Ingram wasn't talked about a ton at the deadline but he will be a big discussion this summer. Dyson is likely to come to the hawks in deal too.
