I am sorry but Hawes justdoes nothing for me.. Turner too

Hawes has been better than or equal to Horford across the board this year. He's not a bad player at all. I'd rather have Horford though.

I say we go all in and trade for Love. Show him the system we have in place and keep him here long term.

He got a good look at our system the other night! :)

Why not move horford pf. Hawes c Millsap sfSomeone like affalo I guess sg And teague Can this team make it tk the finals with bud???

[DS5]

So now we are comparing Horford with Hawes??? Wow.. I'd rather keep Pero in the starting lineup than to trade for Hawes

[Admin]

I'm guessing those of you saying this about Hawes haven't seen him play or haven't checked his stats. He's equal to or better than Horford almost across the board.

Edit - at least he was at the time Horf went down and that's the last time I've checked.

[Sothron]

Hawes numbers are coming down. I still like the guy but he's not on Horford's level.

Agreed he's not on Horford's level but the last time I looked he was having an excellent season.

Idk about finals but we would for sure be a force in the playoffs.

I want him because he's 7'1 and can finally move Al to PF. Would be a great addition.

I doubt you can ever make Kevin Love stay with the hawks even if he would get traded here. That guy played in a small market town for so long now, and he is appearently dreaming of the lakers. No offense, but I believe for many players its something special to wear a Lakers uniform. Even if it means that there will be less success initially. I just read an article (please don't bash me) on a german nba page about tim ohlbrecht playing pretty good again in the d-league. From what i heard it's quite intresting that that dude, rather plays for small money in america then for big bucks in europe. He seems to really want it and maybe he should get a shot somewhere. Sorry if this completly stupid, but maybe i just fell for some german propaganda. Maybe he would also be a good tutor to dennis schröder, fellow german, good work ethic and problably awesome mindset.

What are we giving up to get him? And what happens if he leaves after we go all in. What are we left with?

The ability to tank and the loss of our coach and GM

[IheartVolt]

Can we enforce a temp rule of no discussion on PF trades..lolLove would be great but SG and C are much greater needs at this point

[MrMeltdown]

Monroe is someone that I would move the rights to Bebe, this year's 1st and the Horford trade exception for.

[TheFuzz]

Not a lot of these guys are enticing to me honestly. Monroe is a maybe but his defense is pretty atrocious and he's a RFA this offseason.

Also, people talking about trading Horford just to trade him. Smh. I'm fine with Horford getting sent out but it'd have to be for a stud or lotto pick plus stuff. Horford eats Hawes for lunch. I'd send out Horford or Millsap for someone like Love or for a top 5 pick but for Afflalo? Not worth it at all.

We've got like $10M to add somebody in free agency. That should be enough.

[Sothron]

Trade them Millsap or Horford plus whatever else to make the salaries work. If we have the system in place that Ferry keeps saying he has then why would Love leave? He wants a team that can make the playoffs and has the right infrastructure around him to contend. That's exactly all we hear from Ferry and Bud.

Philadelphia Freedom?

Philadelphia has "stepped up" efforts to trade swingman Evan Turner, according to a report by SportingNews.com. As FOX Sports Ohio reported early in the season, the 76ers are also very open to moving forward Thaddeus Young and center Spencer Hawes. The Suns, Los Angeles Clippers and Atlanta Hawks are all especially intrigued, according to FSO sources.

I really like Young but we don't need another PF. Can he play SF?.

Hawes makes more sense and is a decent player but I can't see the Hawks giving up a 1st round pick for him.

[capstone21]

I think Afflalo is the right addition.

Honestly, if they are selling low I would be interested in Larry Sanders....he has had a bad season and has been injured but he is an excellent defender and rebounder and I think could compliment Al well.
