RWF Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 WOW.... Ferry is going to be signing some terrible players now. Or building a team through drafts like Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Or building a team through drafts like Spurs. Still plenty of roster spots to fill out, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWF Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Some just don't want to hear it, but Ferry started this with trading away Joe and Marvin and will continue his build of a NEW Atlanta Hawks. People just want instant results. Well I am glad he is building the team to his vision and hopefully through the draft instead of going into panic mode to sign Monta Ellis and Josh Smith.

GameTime Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Or building a team through drafts like Spurs. But we can't tank; We must compete...... Still plenty of roster spots to fill out, no? Give Bynum a max 1 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 1. HoopsHype is so hard to follow. I had to sift through 1,000 different Dwight tweets to find anything. 2. MAN. Everyone is getting signed now3. Lets see what happens now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoostal Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Or building a team through drafts like Spurs. The Spurs did build through the draft, but they didn't tank to build through the draft. However, most on this board feel the only way to build through the draft is to tank. The Spurs didn't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWF Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 (edited) Still plenty of roster spots to fill out, no?He can fill it up with vet mins, or younger players. No need to panic for a Monta Ellis just to stay in the last couple spots of the playoff standings. The Spurs did build through the draft, but they didn't tank to build through the draft. However, most on this board feel the only way to build through the draft is to tank. The Spurs didn't do that. How did they get the 1st pick for Duncan, playing an injured star?

People need to lay off the SA stuff though... Without Tim Duncan the SA Spurs ain't crap. And Tim Duncan isn't walking through that door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started with Robinson they were horrible and ended up with him. The year they got Duncan, Robinson was injured the entire year so they got Duncan. Tell me how they got all of the other players in the draft? Besides Duncan who else on their roster was a lottery pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPURS MUST BE COMPETITIVE; NEVER TANK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs drafted Tim Duncan. Hawks can draft Jabari Parker or Wiggins and become our franchise player. So you would rather panic and sign Josh Smith or Monta Ellis for a 6th seed or worse this season? Some of you will be very upset. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 I dont get the Tim Duncan stuff. We already have a high lottery pick PF on the roster. His name is Horford. If we get Asik all we need is a wing player and a pg(maybe Schröder is it. We will find out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachx Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 No one has actually signed anything. They are just verbal agreements over the phone. These guys can still be had if you pay them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides Duncan who else on their roster was a lottery pick? Dude it starts with the franchise pick. Give it time. You all act like Ferry should draft an entire team in one draft. "Besides Duncan who else...." Let us get our Duncan first. Wiggins and Parker are held as the next superstars coming out of high school since Lebron James.

I was just pointing out first that Ferry will have no choice but to sign terrible players. As for the Spurs... People need to quit trying to pretend that we will be the next Spurs or whatever. We are not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of you will be very upset.You are correct no need to panic, but in today's NBA, Parker or Wiggins are more likely to pull a Lebron and bolt than lead ATL to a championship. You can't think getting a top three pick is the fix, it may be, but more likely it isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monta guarantees an 8th-9th seed which is the worse position to be in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoostal Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 So everyone in the top 6 picks of this draft from what I hear for all the pro tankers is going to be a hall of famer like Duncan? You guys should run an NBA team if you know all these guys are can't miss. There are other ways to build franchise then just tanking. Just because we get a top 6 pick doesn't mean we are going to get FA's to come here. There is more ways to skin a cat. People think there is only one way. There isn't tanking in some cities they reload. You can get to be a good team through trades and free agency. As long as you get the right assets that fit your team needs going forward. We tried tanking before where did that get us to where we are now. No thanks keep cap space and tradeable assets. But to continuing to lose to find the golden ticket, good luck. I have seen that before and its been the Hawks team I've seen the last few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
