NBASupes Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 I think you're forgetting that his cap hold will not be for the max salary. IIRC it's only like $16m or something like that. Which means we could add a bigtime free agent up the the cap + Horford's cap hold, and then sign Horford to whatever we want even if it's over the cap. See Cleveland this year. But we'll also have Bazemore coming off the books with only Early Bird rights, just like DMC and Millsap this season. While that's true, look at the FA options next yr? http://www.spotrac.com/nba/free-agents/2016/ Not really anyone we need unless Wes or Thabo doesn't work out Yea, I much prefer Richard Jefferson for bench filler because he can shoot a little bit. He resigned w/ Dallas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBASupes Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Fwiw, learned just now that his agent is the same as Dennis'. I think it's Pelinka right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you're assuming we get Wes, which isn't a done deal. No, I fully expect, barring a trade for a starter, that Korver and Baze will be our starting wings this year. With Thabo and Hardaway as backups. If we add Wes, perhaps that changes things, we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitte Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 He's purely a backup at this time in any system. Not sure Atlanta wants to go in that direction. He not really a fit. That would be Richard Jefferson. You want a potential starting SF or a developmental SF instead of an Elton Brand type at a need position. Jefferson will sign with the Mavericks.

We could get him for a second rounder if we wanted him. Although he is not worth that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although he is not worth that Perry Jones isn't a Hawks type of player. He's more like Jordan Crawford types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although he is not worth that I imagine you might have said the same thing about Hardaway before we traded for him? Who knows who or what Bud is looking at.

Naw, Hardaway plays our style of ball though. Jones doesn't. I think you are confusing talent that hasn't succeeded with our system. Jones needs to be on the Lakers or Sixers, not the Hawks.

Moderators AHF Posted July 7, 2015 Moderators Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Dorrell Wright, Gerald Green, Jr smith ??? Scratch JR Smith. He won't be had for $2.8M by Cleveland's biggest rival in the East. Wright, Green, etc.. we need to get moving on this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBASupes Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Dorrell Wright, Gerald Green, Jr smith ??? Two of those guys have no shot in our system and Wright is a backup in any system. It's time to look at trades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnice Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) I thought it was much ado about nothing, (there is another Wesley Johnson wing at Charleston Southern, the fam would be happy) Edited July 7, 2015 by Dnice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
