Merged: Hawks sign Lou Williams

[Eddielives]

Way too many guards all of a sudden. A move has to be coming.

You're forgetting Morrow.

Intentionally, too! He's my starting SF at the moment until something else comes down the pike. Swap him with DeShawn at SG/SF depending on the greater defensive need. ~lw3

Gotcha.

The other message being sent:"Smoove! Leave the shot-jacking to us!"Sincerely,Ammo and Lou~lw3

U guys slay me! Teague is not going anywhere. If any guard gets traded its Harris

[mattlanta]

Lou Williams is a good addition to our bench. Just cause he can't play the 1 and guard the 2 doesn't mean it's a bad thing. Players that are like that do just fine coming off the bench, especially players like Lou who can score down the line. I like this signing. I truly hope we exchange some of this guard depth for a big though... I'm not sure for who, but it doesn't even have to be Dwight.

[Sothron]

Let's keep bringing local boys home. Love the signing. Now let's GET DWIGHT HOME.

If he can come in here right away and give us 16 ppg 3 rpg 3apg, we might have ourselves another 6th man of the year.

LD must be gone. He never is proactive with subs, so he would never go small to force the other team to do something. I haven't seen him do it, on purpose, yet.

I'd give him 1 more year to either lead us into the lottery or into the playoffs.

Guys, he is just a role player for this team. He will giving us a scoring threat off of the bench which will be very nice to have. Don't make it out to be more or less than it is.

Confused here,What are we paying him with?If we are paying him below market then a significant role (read: starting) has to be an incentive because right now all we can offer is less than what Jamal got.

Apparently according to reports he is getting paid the full MLE ($5 mill) and its a multi year contract.

[Plainview1981]

Waste of money.

Whoever is doing those has to know about the Squawk. I wonder who it is, I guess better left unsolved...(cue DrZ to go ahead and figure it out somehow).
