How much merit does Aldrige have

[coachx]

Insidehoops.com is reporting David Aldridrige spoke with Billy Knight by phone while was in Sweden scouting the European Championship. Aldridge said Knight told him the Hawks would match the Jazz's offer to retain JT.

Does this hold water ? Opinion ? Or does anybody care anymore ?

Yep. It was said all along, "Hawks will match their offer."

Don't really understand it. Apparently, J.T turned down

Atlanta's offer for a lot more money over a longer period

of time, naturally, for a $22 Mil. offer instead of one for

twice as much.

Now, all Hawks need to do is match it, which I believe

they should and will do.
