IF.....

[Diesel]

1. If it is our contention that Marvin and Smoove fight over the Sf spot, then maybe Salim should be traded so that Chillz can BU the SG position.

2. If we suggest that we should bring Shelden off the bench, then maybe we should re-sign Al...

3. If we end up having to Keep John Edwards, then maybe Woody should give him those 10 starters minutes that Ivey used to have.

4. If we keep Lue and Speedy, then we should cut Ivey.

5. If we trade Lue, then we should cut Ivey and sign Grundy.

6. If we sign Este, then Solomon ought to be on our DL Squad.

[chillzatl]

1. Only if one of them takes it to an entirely different level. Otherwise, there will be plenty of minutes across the 3 positions.

2. See #1. depends on the development of the above players.

3. You can't get blood out of a turnip

4. Cut him.

5. Agreed.

6. Ditto.

Oh, this is one of those logic puzzles right? Try mine:

Ten Hawks players were fighting it out for bench positions. The first five bench positions on the left are for starters. The next five, left to right, are the first players off the bench. BK and Woody had just figured out where all the Hawks sit, but wait! ATL Spirit sold the bench on EBAY because they couldn't get anyone to give us $3 mil for Al. Can you help put the Hawks back in order? Nique was the only one paying attention, here's what he remembers:

Hawks: MW, JJ, Chill, Smoove, ZZ, Lo, Slim, Lue, Speedy, Landlord

1. MW and Landlord were sitting next to each other and starting.

2. JJ was sitting in the second chair from the left.

3. Slim was not starting. He was jealous and sitting as far away from Speedy as possible.

4. The '04 first rounders were also sitting together.

5. ZZ was not sitting next to JJ, but was starting.

6. The only player between Slim and Lo was Lue.

7. Smoove was sitting to the right of ZZ.

8. Speedy was sitting on one of the ends of the bench.

9. MW was sitting somewhere between Speedy and Landlord.

Oh crap, it's like I'm back in gifted class again!!

[tmac13]

Very good..But maybe instead of selling the bench they could sell advertising on the bench..That way each of our 9 small forwards could be sitting on a different sponser.. When they went into the game for their 6.5 minutes each the sign would be exposed to the crowd..

I also think maybe they could put some sort of billboard on Sheldons fivehead...Might be a great place for a Marlboro sign...

That was good.

[Packfill]

Were those things called "brain teasers"?

[txsting]

Thanks - another post successfully hijacked!!

I haven't seen these kind of puzzles in years, then Diesel brings it all back. Yeah - drzachary - gifted class, exactly! I nominate myself for nerdiest post of the day.

5. If we trade Lue, then we should cut Ivey and sign Grundy.

I believe Grundy has already signed with a foreign team for a mil or more.

[Seano]

Speedy

Shhhh! You aren't supposed to talk about gifted class around Diesel. He'll get his feelings hurt. We always told him we were leaving regular class to do chores for teacher.

[VDiLetto]

whatever, I got to leave class early too. I got to ride a special bus and wear a magic helmet as well. Supposedly, the boiler room heat was supposed to help us concentrate. I sure do miss that boiler room and magic helmet...

besides, I think we are all special.

We are Hawks fans after all, how smart can we be?
