are you alluding that Dre is an exceptional rebounder? He's not helping us either. At least these two play aggressive defense. And FWIW, 4 RPG for players who are typically out on the perimeter on defense is not too shabby.

Well aware. It could be a high sheet to match though.

that's exactly what worries me -- he will soon need to be paid Didn't realize Jones was already extended.

I like it... what concerns me is those guys will need to be paid soon and I don't think they'd take the "loyalty" discount that DJ did. I'd feel we need 2 1sts to make it fair. DJ is significantly better than both of them.

I know the oussiders are gonna give me hell for this.... but I think I'm coming around to the mindset of @Wretch on the Zion matter (or is it mass?). I get the risks about his health and how he's been drama since he came into the league..... but what are we doing now? We're losing and it's not even fun to watch - I'd rather at least be entertained while losing. We have a front court issue and we have a rebounding issue. He helps with both of those. The biggest reasons I'd welcome him here: 1. He WANTED to be here. I'd imagine he get his act together to remain somewhere he wants to be -- in regards both to his weight and the drama. I acknowledge the proximity to Magic City may make this difficult. 2. Dre could be shipped out as part of the package. 3. Dre could be shipped out as part of the package.

I've got my Pacman on my left arm. Had one of my best friends do it. We were shooting the shit so hard the whole time he messed up and made the yellow shading around orange instead. And I love it.

some people get tattoos for themselves as opposed to gain attention from others. Not saying Zion is one of those guys but that's my answer.

SOMEBODY'S married.....

should've never traded multiple picks to move up to get this non-difference maker. I'd have been fine staying at 8, 10 and 17 (plus 2nd(s))

I don't get this... what happened? I got back from visiting home last night and was off the squawk for a week.

[] So let's get back to basketball. Moderator Note: Agreed!

The outsiders are fully aware. OKC been in our crosshairs for years.

You saw that too last night.... happens all too often.

I'm so tired of hearing this phrase. It's worse than "heat culture"

or anybody for that matter. Social media really is making everyone stupid, I tell ya.

I think we've had a fair trial to see that Ridder ain't it.

I don't want either. But I'd take the latter if someone was holding a gun to my face and I had to choose one.

so did Allen

I'm worried it has to do with Quin not playing him and he's all in his feelings about where he's at. I may be alone in this but I suspect the FO and Quin have discussed a need to showcase Garrison and Wes because they're nice filler for a trade. If that's the case, I would hope someone communicated that to AJ. I suspect by the trade deadline AJ will be getting minutes like he was.

Welcome to the board! Half of my family is from Cincinnati. Oddly enough I was a Bengals fan before being a Hawks or Falcons fan, but that was short lived. My dad played at Ohio U in their good days but became a Hawks fan in the 80s, as he got his masters from Georgia Tech after his bball days. Say hello to some 5 way chili for me!

I was joking from the get-go as well. But you know... some people think everything is about being right.

I like diversity. We don't need everybody copy and pasting from the same site. That's what makes this a discussion board. Now let Terrell be whoever he wants. You're not even his dad.

higher than Traschal's and Lori's. He actually has a chance to be 2-way. No way in hell those 2 become defensive standouts. And why are people crying for Siakam/Lauri AND complaining about our defense at the same time? One cannot make both of those complaints without being a complete hypocrisy.

please Terrell not you -- I like your current style of arguing. We've got plenty of clowns tossing charts around.
