Merged: Hawks trade Bebe and Lou to Toronto for Salmons

[Plainview1981]

Walker also says that Deng's agent is talking about the Hawks.

[Admin]

If he's a changed dude i could careless now. It's a dumb thing to do but if you've made changes who am I to judge

I am not judging him, just not going to cheer for him. I'm going to pray we don't sign him either.

I'm just saying why I personally don't care know brother that's all

Plus I think he can win us games

And that it could just his agent inflating deng's value

I made a post a while back about sooner or later ferry is going to have to take a risk. Judging the roster hawk fans should have known this and been prepared. Now I like bebe just like many of you but he's not a huge risk but he is a risk because now your last year first round pick was a waste of time basically....but I'm not mad at ferry because again I knew he was going to take a risk at some point.

Personally I thought ferry was going to trade horford to Cleveland to pick Embiid and I thought that was going to be his risk.

Anyways I'm not upset, I'm more "now that you made this risk ferry...how are you going to follow it up...I knew you were going to risk something in effort to make the team better now you just need to get it done"

Bebe is gone like nbasupe said "I'm over it"....ferry I hope you have a plan wether it's for quality all stars or for a star I just hope you have a plan....if you have fail this will officially be strike 1 since you've been here.

But yeah if we sign Deng to 15 mill....... go ahead and trash Ferry

If it's for 7 or 8m I'm not mad...if it's more than that then WTF ferry?

Saw it stated somewhere that the Hawks have no interest in Lance Stephenson. And in regards to Deng, of course his agent is going to mention the team with money. Perhaps there is interest, but I doubt the Hawks offer anything close to the kind of deal he turned down in Chicago.

[Mdizzle5]

Deng can't give us a Dukie Discount or something? 15m is ridiculous. 

[ViperXX79]

How much flexibility do we have after Sap leaves next year and Horford the year after that?  I assume we'll have a lot more cap space in the next two offseasons as well.  The thrill of the hunt...

[coachx]

I think we could of signed him(if we actually wanted to) before the trade.

I don't think anyone is high on him.  Just seems like the direction we'll go.

I like what Jason Walker was saying about CJ Miles.

[buzzerbeater4three]

I know what it is about bebe that has some questioning the trade.......it's the hair. gotta love the hair. on the real question about this player is his ability to stay healthy enough to compete on an NBA level. I would love to see him rocking a hawks jersey scoring in the paint but I'm not a GM so Ferry did what he felt was best to achieve the goal of going further into the playoffs. just my thought

[NBASupes]

I told ya'll. This is so disappointing. Ugh.

[JTB]

That would be insane - DF can't be that crazy!!!

If he is, he may receive strikes 1,2, & 3....and ya know what that means...time to fire that a**! Lol...seriously though he does that and he destroys the hawks for 2-3 years depending on how long the deal goes for.

[ViperXX79]

 so Ferry did what he felt was best to achieve the goal of going further into the playoffs

 

And how did he do that?

Agreed - there is absolutely no way that DF makes Deng the highest paid player on the team. No freaking way.
