Hard to really think about this one without something like "and Miami gives Atlanta Bam" or something as the returning piece. This. To me, this better be someone that's more than a rental if Kevin is also in talks. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd give it up to get the right player. I hope youre right..The rest of the East are getting better too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear, not all owners see what he did as hurtful to the business. Especially those with limited interest in China 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucastheThird Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 It's really refreshing to know that the FO is actually trying to win now. I'm not sure what we will end up getting for #6, but I'm ready to watch some winning basketball in Atlanta. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBASupes Posted October 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Just now, terrell said: Jrue Holiday? Ben Simmons? Bradley Beal? lol It would be impossible to say. Atlanta knows the market and players might be available to Atlanta that's not to others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hali, Okoro, Toppin, and a few others could help as rookies.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georges fit here wouldn’t make any sense because he doesn’t fit our timeline. Well, that is true but here is the question that lies within there, let say that the Hawks has another bad year and Trae is thinking about going to another team even know that we can have the most money to give him but because we didnt give him the tools to win with, he might think that going to another team will do that for him. Do not get me wrong that PG13 might not work in the timeline but we cant just use the timeline for timeline sake. That is the difference between super GMs like Toronto/Riley/West to the scrubs.

Moderators AHF Posted October 28, 2020 Moderators Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 That kills the league blackball theory. Still a strange situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators AHF Posted October 28, 2020 Moderators Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 The blackballing only made sense to me as a league issue and Morey's departure came at right about the same time that China turned the switch back on for the NBA. It could certainly be the case that whatever franchise that employs Morey will lose out on China revenue specific to them but that is not nearly as big a deal as the league-wide implications. If the league didn't block him being hired as President, I can't imagine any domestic issues for the Sixers with this. Might be more about being unhappy with the team building or something specific to Houston's owner (especially given that it came with the firing of the coach Morey hired).

NBASupes Posted October 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Two things I was just texted to watch for: Watch what Philly does with their stars with whom are not on the market and watch for Kevin Love and Blake Griffin trade market, especially with the Clippers. Note: They have interest in Horford and CP3 as well. Edited October 28, 2020 by NBASupes 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
