Hawks had a breaking point on Carroll in the neighborhood of 4/$50M. Might have nudged up a bit, but not significantly.

I think Carroll is just trying to not look like the greedy asshole that he is.

I would be OK if he said he couldn't pass up the extra $10 million.

[Bamalawdawg]

Toronto is going to pay him what Cousins and Klay Thompson make. Good luck with that

[Admin]

Thank God we didn't offer more than $12 a season for him. He's good but he can't consistently out the team on his back or get you points when you need to go to him.

Because they knew that your 12 ppg was easily replaceable

STFU DMC. Take your money and go, but don't crap on us on your way out.

[hazer]

Ugh, bad taste in my mouth DMC. And I really liked you. Can't blame you for taking the extra $10mil, but ya ain't gotta be like that...

Toronto is going to pay him what Cousins and Klay Thompson make. Good luck with that

And more than Curry and Horford...

[ATLHawks3]

Well damn. I wasn't really questioning his loyalty up until now, but to say Atlanta didn't go after him hard enough because they couldn't give you an extra $10 million is nuts.

[Guest]

DMC you filthy...now git outta here...

[Johnnybravo4]

After Canada's taxes it's the same difference

Nothing greedy about DMC.. Was making 2.4 and went to 15. I don't blame him one iota.

That universal healthcare tax is going kick him in the ass, right @capstone21 ?

[Carmine]

That's a bad look homie.

Now people are turning on the Dog? It's business, people. He would be doing his family a disservice if he turned down 10 million.

And let's keep it real. The Hawks could've made him the priority over Millsap, and given him a better offer. But the Hawks considered Millsap to be the priority.

That man was instrumental in us making our first Conference Finals in Atlanta history ( when othere were coming up short). I will always be grateful to him for that.

Oh sweet godly DMC.  When you're not in the system that made you who you are, will you be worth the extravagant price they paid to get you?  You better hope for more blessings to your game to justify your paycheck.

You are right, it's business I'm not mad at DMC for taking the money, and I'm not mad at the Hawks for thinking that Sap was more of a priority. Just be honest and say I took the best offer for the most money.

No one's denying that, but the Hawks offered him $10 Million less to return to a system that made him the player that he is today, and he then says we didn't want him enough?
