hawkrule152 Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 He must really hate Howard. Seems ridiculous considering he has been begging to play the 4. But Good luck big AL. And also good riddance. Going to be nice to have someone dominate the boards alongside Sap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the 2nd highest contract so far and Al thinks he should get more. Have a good one Al and hope you enjoy playing Center and bitching about it in Boston for the next 3 or 4 years.

Especially when D12 was in the east. Edited July 3, 2016 by pimp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, think of all the offensive rebounds we're gonna be getting against the Celtics now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member cam1218 Posted July 3, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I'm really bummed, Horford was our guy. The play against Washington in game 5 will always be one of the best moments in his career and for us. He wasn't dominant but we will be okay.. Boston though?

FrankWhite Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 People are going to act like losing a weak rebounding big man who inspired no fear in other teams, who'd rather shoot 3s than bang inside is the end of the world. Do you wanna be paying Al Horford $30 mil in 5 years when he's putting up 11 and 5? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5 Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 He must be confident that the Celtics are getting KD. Otherwise their ceiling is the 2nd round depending on their 1st round matchup. They aren't beating the Hawks with Millsap/Howard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a smaller team than Thomas,Bradley,?,Jared,Horf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txsting Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I said in another thread we would offer 5 and 135. I'm gutted that wasn't enough. You gotta draw the line somewhere. But wouldn't it have been better to offer the extra 6 million in order to keep him simply as a tradeable assets. Pot odds were pretty damn good considering you already had 95% of the money in the pot to begin with, only to fold.

yardbird Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I don't know. PeachtreeHoops is reporting that he left because the Hawks wouldn't add another $6 million. Over 5 years. To lose Al to the dreaded Celtics over $1.2 million per season??? Makes me second guess my faith in our current management . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
