*2013* Update: Hawks have agreed to deal with Paul Millsap

6th seed here we come!

Dolf, you can see this as a treadmill team move. We can all see that.

If this was the final move of the offseason then sure. But we're far from done so let's chill and see what the final roster looks like. The only thing I will guarantee is that we aren't tanking, but I've been telling you guys that we aren't cultivating a loser culture around here for weeks now and some of you refuse to believe that.

I wanted Carl Landry. Millsap seems to be a more talented version. Im happy. I know everyone will say why, but he is young and in a rebuilding process we will need all the pieces we can get.

Good Hire IMO

Millsap is MUCH more talented than Landry. 2 year deal, now let's hope its for 17-19 million at the most.

So, does this mean Asik is out of the picture for the Hawks?

[Guest Zone]

Hilarious. Ferry has no problem with this team being on the treadmill.

[drzachary]

Millsap had the most Win Shares last season of any available forward. Wonder if DF likes advanced stats? :)

Most likely. Doesn't mean that we won't look for a true C elsewhere though.

I wonder if he likes to read advanced stats while on the treadmill? #mostoverusedandinappropriateword

Hmmm. Milsap is a starter-level PF. This does not compute.

Thanks Vivamore! #ATHawks

4 years 50 mil for Pec?

Maybe Ferry wants to sign his bigs and then draft the backcourt. We all know how hard it can be to draft bigs....

Did you hear him talk about the draft? We seem to have a whole advanced stats team that he pays a lot of attention to.

$9.5 million per is more than I would have liked to spend on him. Hawksfanatic can you work up what we have left to spend now?

[DrReality]

He is the antithesis of Josh in terms of attitude, work ethic, team first, etc. In that way he's going to support Bud's plan. .......

[NekiEcko]

9.5 mil for two years. Huh

[theheroatl]

Here is my take:

-Solid Rebounder

-High BBIQ

-GREAT Player Efficiency / Advanced Metrics Guy

My gut feeling is Ferry is building a roster on high BBIQ guys.

9.5 million is big money for a bench player.

[phoostal]

Can we change it from the treadmill to a stair climber

[lethalweapon3]

Oh, and Run-DMC too! Jazz East!
