Statement and question for all: #10 pick by the Hawks, Cam Reddish, has been cheered by most as a great pick. However, many have said that the Hawks gave up too much to move up to #4 for Hunter. Yet, these same people think he will probably start this season and will be an excellent defensive addition and a great offensive weapon. Seems to me you just can't have it both ways. We get a great starting player in the draft and we paid too much for him. I think the Hawks got the player that they wanted and the things they gave up for him were things they didn't want as much as they wanted Hunter. That makes it a no brainer in way of thinking. What do you think? Did Hunter cost too much? Yes or no? Why? We had to get Cam Reddish. He was critical. Not just a nice to have for me. But once we got him as well as Hunter. It was worth it. 100% 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both seem super high but on a rating system of 1-100, what score on BBIQ would you give Hunter, and what score for Cam? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleachkit Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 The only thing that sucks about the trade is we could of had Brandon Clarke at #17. Lottery screwed us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You ever notice I don't say anything about Hunter. Here's a tip, take a look at what I said about him before we drafted him. Like I said, I ain't that guy. Clarke will end up better than Barnes but not by much and not because he's some great prospect. It'll be because that's a low a** bar to step over. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is a little of both. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe our GM is kinda brilliant as opposed to kinda lucky. Not dumping on luck of course. JC being a great example. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferry and Bud would've passed him up for Alexander-Walker or Nassir and we the fans would be sitting on the treadmill with our arms crossed. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedDawg#8 Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 I find it interesting that the coaching staff had Deandre watching film of Kahwi Leonard and Cam watching film of Kevin Heurter. Its almost like since Hunter comes from a very structured college halfcourt system we arent as concerned about acclimating him in to ours, we want to focus more on unlocking his Iso game. But with Reddish, we want to put more of an emphasis on establishing him in to our offensive system to see if he can flourish within the flow of our offense. https://www.nba.com/2019-20-rookie-survey-film-study 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
