Real Talk poll/RT of the Day....

[Diesel]

The question from the poll assumes that there are NO contract or cap concerns and no other player needs to leave the Hawks.... NO Trades.

What 1 Hawk player would you bring back to play with Bud? After you vote, please add discussion (Real Talk).

If there's somebody not listed, please add them in the discussion.

What, no Zaza?

[lethalweapon3]

Was just bemoaning the other day (after a loss, of course, cuz that's just what Squawkers do!) that we don't have anybody capable of getting open for shots without going through multiple screens. Who better than the Crawsome One at producing offense off the dribble?

Joe Johnson would be cool. The guy would be constantly getting some nice open jumpers and drives to the hole.

Joe Johnson spends more time dribbling than an infant with overactive saliva glands. No thanks!

How is a hypothetical hallucination, ignoring the reality of the salary cap, considered "real talk ?"

While we are in a dream world I will play along. I would say Joe Johnson b/c I believe Bud would make him like the Suns edition of Joe where he was more of floor spacer who played off the ball. The PG would still dominate the ball.

If he tries to be iso Joe then we ship him out of here. Since contracts don't matter, in this hallucination, someone would take him.

Keep in mind I am assuming he buys into the system. I think he'd be a great piece to have in that case.

Chances: Not good, I know.

I just don't trust Joe to be anything but ball dominant, at least on this team. Maybe you put him on the Spurs where he's got to bow down to Duncan and Parker and Manu and he'll fall in line, but there's nothing on this team that would force him to buy into the system and be a team player.

Jamal Craffitt. He'll put up impressive nimbers.

Because the realness of that talk was what did that player do on the COURT.. where it counted.

[Diesel]

I have to say... THE Crawford.

I don't think Joe would be a ball holder either. I just think Crawford gives us a scorer who can play OG and create for himself and others. I immediately see his game opening up the floor for Teague and Horf and Sap and Korver... Joe is a close second but I just believe the Crawford would pay off better.

[Gray Mule]

Ivan the Terrible or Zaza, neither of which made your list.

You left these great, former Hawks off? Why??

[Admin]

Flip Murray

Err who is Flip Murray? I only know Flip Mary. Whatever happened to that guy anyway?

[Watchman]

I voted for Shelden. He is a decent rebounder and seems to be more effective (IMHO) than Antić or Ayón.

No time travel... No guy in his prime. A guy today... Right now.. this moment. If we could just pick up a guy who would you pick?
