suiluap Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 So it means we gave up on Ivan Johnson?? C'mon Ferry, he was fan favorite... You won't get same energy on the court from our 60yo newbie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Sothron Posted July 15, 2013 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Stay mediocre and keep cap flexibility. That worked out so well this year. Hey remember that time we signed a guy that wasn't mediocre or washed up? Oh wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Hey remember that time we signed a guy that wasn't mediocre or washed up? Oh wait. Maybe Ferry can talk Grant Hill out of retirement. We could use another SG... Wonder what Michael Finley is doing these days.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zone Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 16 million in cap to go after players who have no interest in playing in Atlanta. Unless they are mediocre to washed up. Go Hawks!Yep. Us having that cap space would be great if quality players wanted to come here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Yep. Us having that cap space would be great if quality players wanted to come here. People might not have been tripping over themselves to play with Al this year, but next year they will! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Sothron Posted July 15, 2013 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Yeah his name is Paul Milsap. No, he falls in the mediocre column along with Teague and Korver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Not excited about this signing... not disappointed either. It's not the worst move ever or anything like that. It's frustrating that we never can get an actual center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gray Mule Posted July 15, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 We're doomed if we do!We're doomed if we don't! We, the Hawks fans can't be satisfied, no matter what. Guaranteed mediocre?Well, so be it. This one move makes us, doesn't it. Some view it as beinga good signing, one year only and some that it's terrible. If some of us here could become the GM, we sure could fix everything - Right! And, some of us would have such a great regular season roster that we wouldn'tbe very competetive in the D League. (That would be me - I know not a lot of stuff) Answer yourself these two questions: Did you expect us to tank the season and maybe just top our 13 win season? Did you reasonably expect the Hawks to win it all this season? Now, whatever you answer, we're sure to read, Yes, but ______________________!! We'v added a little big man. An old, little big man! Yea! GO HAWKS!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea! GO HAWKS!! While we might all have some different idea's (and so the nobody is ever happy theory comes in) it seems that once again the team is headed for mediocrity this season, and what will they have to show for it? The same as this past season... VERY LITTLE. I admit there has been a lot of overreactions (myself included) I think that much of the frustration is justified for the most part. And like I've said all along, it does not all fall on Ferry. We have a bad rep and lots of bad moves in the past to make up for... It can't be corrected in one offseason, but Ferry's plan doesn't look that great right now. Edited July 15, 2013 by Hotlanta1981 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkItus Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 4 million a year for Brand is about twice as much as I think he is worth these days...I look at it like we are paying him 2 million to play and 2 million to go away at the end of the year. He made 2 mill last year so a 2 year deal would be around the same amount. We just get our cap room back after the last game instead of having to find somewhere to ditch him if we need the room. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I will say this though: he will have a lot less turnovers on offense than Zaza and Ivan will. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the signing does take pressure off of Horford but we really need a legit center. At least there'll be a lot more centers available next summer.

taz Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Jesus we got some 14 year old level bitching in hearOnce again nothing ATL could do once the clippers traded for doc rivers. Paul wasn't going to screw the clippers over like thatAnd no Paul meant no D12 cause the dude didn't want to come here because of his familySeriously some of you must have gotten like a 2 in reading comprehension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post terrell Posted July 15, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Is this a joke? Elton Brand and resigning Teague for $8mm. What a terrible off season.Teague for 8 mill is going to end up being a steal. Jeffs gonna ball out. Just wait and see.... 18pts and10assists. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do understand the whole story right? Or do you just want to bitch about everything regardless of what the facts are? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
