DawsonsCreek Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Mr. H. I dont think we can be content on just Bibby. Need to get a shooter with size off the bench and one big. We traded alot of expirings. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mrhonline Posted February 16, 2008 Author Premium Member Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 The original rumor mentioned Salim. I still think a 2nd deal may be attached to the Bibby deal with Salim going for Justin Williams. Then again, you might be able to use Salim as the 3rd PG... I do know that Sacramento has to cut at least two players, and that there will be definite cuts after the deadline. I'd say Salim, West, and Childress are the only real trade otions at this point. (Zaza and Jones may not be world-beaters, but they're bigs the Hawks can't afford to get rid of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachx Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Thanks for showing the effort and willingness to committ money to the Hawks in order for them to be a winner. Much more thanks lies ahad when the trade is official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. If the trade falls through, that's Knight's fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Final_quest Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I agree. The risk here is minimal, and at least gives hope that we are gonna spend more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exodus Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I haven't seen Bibby much the last couple of years so i don't know how good he is any more. I do know that basically we gave up nothing to get him. Even if he doesn't work out we will have a nice expiring contract next year to make a deal with. I don't really see any downside assuming the ASG is willing to spend the money to fill the other holes in the team and resign Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusBoyIsBack Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 As much hate as people give BK and the ASG, how about a little praise when they do something right? This is a done deal unless the league rejects it or somebody like Shelden can veto it. ASG had done their part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeWilksBooth Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Why would Shelden, a guy on his rookie contract, be allowed to veto it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volman Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 This is pretty much official...It was REALLY neat to see it on the bottom ticker of ABC during the college game that is on right now... That's awesome to see! I am proud to be a season ticket holder right now! I want to see the playoffs back in Atlanta! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol obviously I have no idea how these things work. I just think expect the unexpected because this deal seems too good to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swatguy Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Without a doubt I would have moved Zaza instead of Shelden. I would have kept AJ for security and sent Salim or Mario. I hate to loose Shelden cause he will be successful in the league and could have been here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeWilksBooth Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 It's all about bird rights lol. Only 18 guys in the league can veto a trade that don't have the direct clauses in the contract George, Earl Barron, Justin Williams, Pietrus, Barnes, Azubuieke, Mihm, McInnis, Derrek Anderson, Anthnoy Carter, Dwayen Jones, Mutombo, Pargo, Marks, Jacque Vaughn, darrick martin, Roger Mason, CJ Miles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ was nice while he was here, but if he has to go to get Bibby, then off you go. I am glad we kept Salim. He's a decent SG (though undersized) if he ever had a coach that would utilize him correctly. I wish we could have thrown in Woody into the trade for good measure. I would have taken a bag of popcorn for him in return... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oken Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 So what is going to happen on Wednesday? We kind of drop off our 4 players in their locker room and Bibby comes over and suits up as a Hawk? and then we kind of take Bibby along with us?

WraithSentinel Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I give them credit for finally doing something. I am not going overboard though. It basically took the team falling out of the playoffs and everyone getting pissed off at them in order to do something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
