Millsap would have to have given the Hawks some indication he was interested in playing for those teams....mmmm. Yes.... yours is the better question.... why would Sap be open to this at this stage. Has Windhorst been a reliable reporter in the past? I just haven't paid him any attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Jody23 Posted June 21, 2017 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 If I recall correctly, Sap can't get the five year max in a sign and trade deal. So, I wonder what the motive for doing this kind of deal is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He masquerades as an all-league insider but he ain't really that. Remember when Louis Gossett Jr starred in Enemy Mines? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe sap wants the full 5 year Max which only the Hawks can give him and then do a S&T just guessing SnT Sap. Only resign Tim if the contract he is willing to sign is around the range we are willing to pay. Keep Bazemore unless you get a fair deal. Keep him for another offseason Focus on fit. Which the Dwight trade did. I just hate trading 31st but I understood Dwight had limited value. I am good with these moves. This team needs to rebuild 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep...It just sounds like due diligence from our new GM...The likely scenario is we let him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Popular Post sturt Posted June 21, 2017 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 So... IF this is not just horst passing wind (yeah, I thought of that all by myself)... Wouldn't it rationally HAVE to be a trade to a team that does NOT have cap space, and would (a) NEED to move contracts back to us, and (b) APPEAL IN A BIG WAY to Sap.... ie, almost certainly be a championship contender on the edge? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would definitely be more sensible. I'd you're under the cap there's no need in the new CBA. Except maybe getting full bird rights. Don't think that will matter when he's 38 though.

Yeah it's always great to stay on a hamster wheel of mediocrity. The worst place in sports for a team to be in is the area of making the playoffs every year and not being a contender at all.

Premium Member Sothron Posted June 21, 2017 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Denver has some good guards plus Wilson Chandler that I wouldn't mind getting back. Plus Denver has a lottery pick this year they could send us. Maybe we can send them our Plumlee to reunite the brothers in Denver? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Sothron Posted June 21, 2017 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 I just want to cleanse this team of Bazemore and don't resign THJ. That dude is a chucker and Bazemore is garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bingooooo. You know why Hawks have the longest string of consecutive playoff appearances in the East (10)? Because all the other teams realize it's stupid as $hit to be caught on that treadmill without being a threat to make the Finals. Thank you, Colonel. Thank you... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know if other teams were so smart maybe they'd have some finals appearances or championships to show for it. But surprisingly majority of the league does not. And many of them are in no better position than we are regardless of when they decided it was stupid to keep making the playoffs. Virtually teams that are making the playoffs have found ways to get better. It's a lot easier to make a good team great than a bad team good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
