He has had one good offensive season in his career and his FG% is way below average in the rest:

2014-15 .367
2015-16 .348
2016-17 .359
2017-18 .367
2018-19 .422
2019-20 .375
Career:  .373

Great Scott. His career shooting percentage from, I don't know, ANYWHERE is lower than Freddie Freeman's OBP. Hell, it's only 30 points higher than Freeman's batting average this year.

If this is the big offseason 'splash' move, count me out. Just say no to this, like Hamilton should've done in that musical...

Though the trade isn't bad, I'm with those who want no piece of Marcus Smart in a Hawks uniform. I'm sure Trae feels the same way too..

Absolutely nothing coming out of the Hawks in the last 12 hours after a flurry of activity. Total radio silence. In my personal experience this means an NBA team is working on something and its about to pop.

I will take an asshole like Smart. He will bring that defensive reputation and allow us to get away with shit.

yes I truly believe certain defensive big name players get away with fouling ...not to say smart isn’t good at defense because he is but combined with good defense and his reputation and I’m sure it has something to do with being a Celtic ...dude got away with shit.

What? 

Either way, the Hawks are in good shape going into next year regardless of the moves we make.  There's almost no way for us to get worse adding Capela+full season of John+no dead cap space.  Making big moves is exciting but I keep having to remind myself we're in good shape no matter what in my opinion.

Adding Hayward would lift my spirits. Has he opted out yet?

It's the big question of 2020

He's really weighing all his options, has until 5:00 today.

Just hope GH doesn't turn out to be Speedy Claxton all over again. 

[bleachkit]

Pacers also want him. Getting him is probably a long shot.

Seeing if he can get Boston to up their 4yr/$70 mil offer and stick around and/or working a deal to go to Indy (he has a huge house and his wife is from there)

I doubt it, he had one big injury (which doesn't really have chance of reinjury)and a rolled ankle

It's an advantage a team that is perennially competitive will have over us.  This is also why we need to make the playoffs this year, so next year FAs aren't second guessing any decisions to come to ATL.

@NBASupes

any truth to this?

Pacers gotta clear cap space, deal with Oladipo, and figure out where Hayward would play in relation to Oladipo and Warren. It's a lot more seamless with Atlanta.

But, we have been jilted at the altar before, so there's that.

Didn't the C's have the picks? They have three this year, including #14.

Most teams apparently don't want 3 picks in this draft, looking more so for future picks.

In other words, NOP told Danny, "Yeah, we want picks -- not your stupid picks"
