Matt Costello

This guy is insane, but in a good way.  Just watch the highlights and you can see he brings a special kind of energy to the game. One of the biggest things I noticed is he has ZERO regard for personal safety. That sort of just lay it all out approach is really needed on the Hawks. In terms of skills, i'm not sure he will be much more than an end of the bench guy, but if we need someone to come in and just annoy the crap out of someone, Psycho C may the perfect guy to do it.

I like him.  Too bad Bud doesn't though.  He rather waste draft picks on stiffs like Edy and sit quality  tough guys like Hump.

Isn't he on our Summer League team?

Yeah Coatello was signed to a training camp invite as well as the summer league contract.

Lol...there's a wire loose in this guy's head and I love it. He'd be great in a blowout game vs the Cavs or Warriors. Make sure he guards a Lebron or Curry or Thompson or Draymond.

I smell a trade coming.

Ya we have too many players...a 3 for 1 coming?

[macdaddy]

With signing a 17th player I'll just say   Who's gone first?  What's second? and I don't know who's gone third.

Costello might be our Delly. I would watch my ankles, shoulders, etc. around him. He's a crazy SOB no doubt.

Did the same thing with Terran Petteway and Lamar Patterson this time last year. Not a biggie, imo. Think they'll groom him to see if he can replace Hump, but Captain Obvious has said his career path seems much more likely to go Petteway's direction than Lamar's.

Man yall hyping this scrub up. All he brings is energy. If he gets playing time this year, we are in trouble.

Where's the hype?

[NBASupes]

He was Terrible in summer league. I hope we trade for a SF like Rudy Gay

[NBASupes]

Something like Gay for Thabo, Scott, Moose and Minny 1st

I disagree. I don't think he is special but he's better than our spare parts

This means Moose and/or Scott is gone.

I think that this signals a trade is coming as well. However, only 50K is guaranteed and  it could just be to add some competition for Muscala during training camp. I really wasn't impressed with what I saw during the summer league but he is a big that can shoot threes and you know we love those.

He didn't look very good in Summer League.
