tonegully Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Awesome. Jeff is a restricted FA right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 This is likely only so we will have the right to match a deal or to SnT him. I highly doubt he will be our PG next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLscrubLove Posted June 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Awesome. Jeff is a restricted FA right?Yes, well this means we will have a open competition for starting PG this year between he and Denise the Menace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I believe we will have a stop gap vet at PG this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Popular Post hawkman Posted June 30, 2013 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 We may be getting ahead of ourselves with Dennis. He seems really talented, but this is the NBA we are talking about and he will be a 19yr old Rookie. Teague has performed well as the starting PG and has only improved from season to season. He will be awesome next season as the starting PG for the Hawks and everyone will be glad that we retained him. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLscrubLove Posted June 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I would like to make a run at Rondo if he is available. We need a star PG now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruckus Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 So I guess that answers the question about if we are tanking next season or not. If Teague does return and we add any mediocre SF FA we will make the playoffs next year in the awful East. I'm ok with staying competitive. Guys like Pek and Evans I could see as pieces to a rebuild also. Iggy and Jefferson not so much. I've been on the Pek bandwagon all season. I'd honestly rather have him than Dwight from a specifically bball standpoint. But I do understand all of the other perks landing a Dwight would have as well. But Pek for 12 vs. Dwight for 18 is def not an easy decision from a bball standpoint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yungsta Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 sign in trade plz there are a couple of teams that could be in need of a new young starting point guard. Like the pistons, the pacers, the magic, the mavs, and maybe utah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferry wasnt just going to let a young asset walk away for nothing regardless if we are tanking or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you kidding me....Teague will absolutely be our point guard next year....depending how well Schröder comes along. In fact he would make a great trade chip in Feb at the very least 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WraithSentinel Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I heard the Celts are willing to move Rondo but only if they can dump contracts with him. I see us matching/re-signing Teague to a 4-year deal. Keep him for another year or two until Dennis is ready. Then trade Teague and get something back for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonegully Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 i really hope we dont go into extreme tank mode. We could lose 80 games and get the 10th pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruckus Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 this answer doesnt anything. Ferry wasnt just going to let a young asset walk away for nothing regardless if we are tanking or not.A QO means he is prepared to bring him back even if no one else offers him anything.

DatWerkk Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 A qualifying offer also means we've given up on having enough cap space to sign two max players. In other words, Ferry's throwing in the towel on CP3 (as he should, obviously). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt he will be our PG next year.I would be shocked if we don't match a reasonable offer for Teague.I can't see Ferry depending on a 19 year old to be our starting PG. Teague is a nice poker chip to have. Edited June 30, 2013 by coachx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post benhillboy Posted June 30, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) We didn't have a birthday thread for Teague 3 weeks ago did we? Anyway, I'm with bringing him back. At only 25, his best ball is around the corner. If he makes a stride as big as he did last season, he'll be All-Star considerable. He's proven to be extremely durable, and at 15 and 7 shooting 88 from the line, a couple more points, another dime, round the steals off to two, we'll be fine. I actually think the two different PGs will push each other considerably to improve their weaknesses: Teague had to learn how to be stronger with the ball in traffic, that's Schröder's biggest weakness. Conversely, Shro' is clearly a more natural distributor out of PNR than Teague, so hopefully he can pick up on the vision, decisiveness, and patience of the kid. It's perfect timing with Al entering his prime, let alone Ivan and Scott. Edited June 30, 2013 by benhillboy 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
