we got the old smoove back

[JohnnyCASH]

it looks like smoove has trimmed down a lot in fact down to his small forward weight any thoughts?

Just in time for a hall of fame career when we trade him #AtlantaSports

Is that a tat of Georgia or Delaware on that bicep? lol

Three cheers for weed a commitment to a low-carb diet and a high-intensity fitness regimen!

I wonder if they plan on utilizing him more at the 3 in view of the 30 pounds he's dropped.

[Joker]

I heard he was losing weight, nice to see a pic. Looks like Smoove is ready to be the defensive anchor we need him to be again.

[MaceCase]

Remember, he was unable to visit chef Jenkins during the lockout........Fire that man immediately before they get reacquainted.

[Magic] 07-08 Smoove is back! [\Johnson]

[Wurider05]

He needs to be drug tested. he might be on that stuff.

30 lbs sweet... I hope that we'll see this season something similar to this:

[Kimsey]

To me, it's a foregone conclusion Marv the amnestied is gone. It's obvious JS has taken this small forward thing literally.

[HawksFan87]

does this mean we get the smoove who would dunk on anybody back?? think it also means he may be moved to the sf position.

Naw, we need a starting SF and Marvin is due 28 million. He might be amnestied next year but this year, he remains a Hawk. JS is a PF, he isn't that skinny, Smoove last year was around 265-270, now he's back to is playing shape of 235. Now he can be a defensive anchor again. Lebron is another one who needs to lose weight, he was bigger than a lot of centers last year. Look like a grizzly bear at times.

I think we need to use Smoove, find and 3rd team and get on the Milsap/Jefferson deal preferably Jefferson. Jefferson and Horford would be dangerous.

Hinrich/Teague

JJ/??

Marv/Wilkins

Horf/ZAZA

Jefferson/ZAZA

I disagree. When Marvin was healthy, he normally provided good team defense, excellent man defense, the ability to draw fouls, good spot up shooter, and was very good in terms of offensive movement. I would love to see that Marvin. He was actually solid. Last year, Marvin was awful.

That's 2008 Smoove. He wasn't that skinny in 2009. This is the pogo stick one.

That's silly, Smoove defense is much more valuable to us than adding another scorer who doesn't play good defense. I would only trade Hinrich and Zaza for Jefferson and that's a reach.

Why in the world would Utah want Josh Smith? They already have Favors and Milsap at PF? Josh's jumper isn't good enough to be a full-time SF.

Nor is his offensive movement or foot speed.

[NekiEcko]

but where can get value for him if we do traded him, the only thing I see that is can be a part of blockbuster deal or three way deal for him.

[YP2K]

Looks like Josh is the only one to show up for voluntary workouts . . . interesting
