abeck11 Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 With CP3 now off the market, Howard is going to go to the Rockets, where they have a team that is more ready to win now. Howard was only going to come to Atlanta if CP3 was going to come here as well. I wrote that we should play into the lottery next year and start our rebuild then instead of trying to patch together a team this year and continue to stay in mediocrity. If we can convince Howard to come here then obviously we should do what we can to build this team into a contender but unless we get a true Superstar in FA, we won't be able to make a team that has been better than what we have had the past few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBASupes Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Now they need to remove Howard too.Why? He is meeting with us on Monday. We have a lot of money. We can make signings. We can do different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WraithSentinel Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I guess we should expect QF to Teague sometime Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member turnermx Posted June 30, 2013 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I don't think the Rockets will do well with Asik and Howard together. That isn't going to work..they need to move Asik for a stretch 4 for it to work. This is what Ferry will likely tell Howard when they meet...

He just needs to talk about our strengths, what we can offer, and what not. I hope we can get Rondo. Rondo, Horf, and D12 would be a major coup. Maybe something likeRondo 12Jenkins 2Wallace 10Horf 12D12 2256 in just three players. Not possible. We would have to trade assets for Rondo, not take back contracts. One of our biggest assets is our picks, Lou, Teague, and Smoove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling there are multiple suitors for a Rondo trade deal, probably 5 or 6 like Smoove has for FAcy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WraithSentinel Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Just saw on the bottomline for Espn. Sources claim Chris Paul did entertain the thought of going to the Hawks with Howard before the Clips got Doc Rivers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicholasp27 Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Cp3 will never win a title as the best player/second best on a teamHe may win in his twilight if he ring chases, but won't be top 2 on a title team at that point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plainview1981 Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 ShredderTeagueLou1st round picks We have assets to trade. If we traded all of those guys we would have no bench. I wasn't aware that we had multiple first round picks. Lou has a pretty decent contract from what I remember, but he was hurt last year. If we have multiple picks that could be one thing.... But otherwise I don't we got the assets to pull of any really big deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IllestPamfilis Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) Apparently he "thought" about joining Dwight here in Atlanta. Thanks for the "thought" Chris....pffffft. I still don't see them as a championship team. We need to be O.K. with rebuilding. This staff WILL get it right this time I feel it in my bones. We just gotta be patient people.
