NBASupes Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Millsap will be an elite 6th man and beast off the bench and it will limit Horford and Millsap playing time so they can all stay healthy. Trade Jeff for a starting SF. Rudy Gay needs to be an option. Dennis is ready to start. Hardaway Jr and Korver need to split time. Get rid of Bazemore. Contending team.

Premium Member Peoriabird Posted February 23, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Wait..Howard is big and is a real center right? Will never happen as long as Bud is here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkmoor Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Been saying the Hawks need Howard. He negates defensive breakdowns and can still score when fed in the paint. Bud aint gonna do it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBASupes Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 93 million Horford 18 million cap hold 53 million in committed dollars 10 spots filled 3 draft picks. That leaves us with 72 million with Horford's and our 1st cap hold. 21 million for Howard. For more, we could stretch provision Splitter and that would be like 26 million dollars for Howard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a good thing to do if Sap is willing to be our 6th man (even if he isn't Im sure he will get use to the idea if we are winning). I mean we could always try Sap at the 3 and run with a BIG lineup too to see how that works. All in all Im completely down with this move if we are truly able to make it happen. The hawks need a starting caliber center to go along with millsap and horford. Im cool with letting Baze walk as well if we can land Howard as well. A move like that would push us into being real contenders! While its not completely impossible since Howard is willing to come back to play in his hometown I seriously doubt it happens. BUT if your numbers are right then it just may! **Fingers Crossed** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yungsta Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 We cant sign both unless we start dumping people for nothing. Al has a cap hold of 18 million which leaves us with exactly $10.3 million in cap space and that doesnt even include resigning Baze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameTime Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 We need to figure out a way to get rid of Splitter/Teague/Korver this offseason. This should be our goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quero Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 On paper Howard would be the right aquisition.. But thats it. In reality though.. Would be the same risk as Splitter injury-wise. Would possibly kill the lockerroom. Would demand to totally change ballmovin' system to utilize him properly Would maybe be the starplayer fans wanted for so long, but would probably fail to deliver the promised gamechanging facettes to live up the hype due to injuries and immaturity. I guess the hawks have to look at boston's summer and perhaps grab a crowder or bradley + one of their million picks for Millsap. Teague's case is more difficult and especially after the missed opportunity at the last trade-window.. If I could wish me something, it would net us Barnes and Jokic this summer..

Alex Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Al had a great game against a bad rebounding team. He is better suited to play in a game that is fast paced like last night was. Don't get used to him doing that again. Al needs to go because he's softer than Charmin. Don't let last nights performance clout your judgment.

Moderators macdaddy Posted February 23, 2016 Moderators Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 If we are continuing to roll with Sap/Horford then we aren't going to pay huge money for another starter at the 4/5. That money is better spent getting real nba talent off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Just now, NBASupes said: Your opinions on Al are always so awful Because he makes it very easy to do so. Is playing timid overall and wants to cash in during the off season. I loved Al years ago, but the Al that is presently on the team needs to go. I want players who will leave it all on the floor and not scared to play. Al is concerned with getting paid and not trying to help his team win. His style of play is fine if he were a 3, but alas he's not. He is a center at least by positional standards, but we all know that isn't true. You can't pay Al all that money to be a jump shooting big man who is scared of paint. The Hawks need an inside presence and a rim protector. Al needs to move on.

Hawkmoor Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 My WHOLE disatisfction with the Hawks has centered around the fact that the team was CLOSE to being a legit contender last year before the allsta break, and the Hawks FAILED to add to the team to get them over the hump. NBA people were waiting last year at the deadline for the Hawks to do what Cleveland did: add the final piece to a Eastern Conference Championship contender. This lead me to hate the front office. It also lead me to believe that in order to add a player like Dwight Howard, the Hawks would have to gamble and get rid of a starter and a draft pick. Sups has made the Hawks look worse in this thread if they dont make a play for Howard during the off season. He has pointed out HOW the Hawks can keep a BIG THREE of Howard, Horford and Milsap. If Sups is correct, there is NO excuse for them to not make a hard push to add Howard next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
