Premium Member Diesel Posted February 9, 2004 Premium Member Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 Will the Hawks have new ownership in place within the next 10 days? I doubt it. I suppose we will finish out the season with what we got. Our players will have less value in the offseason. Things just suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLHawk Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 Yeah, But just wait until this time next year. We will have several ending salaries. SAR/Theo/Hendu/CC will all have some value. I know it will be funny to see, but we will actually start seeing Hendu/CC trade rumors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Diesel Posted February 9, 2004 Author Premium Member Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 Well, I think so and I think NOT. It will all depend on the expansion draft, the FA market, and the luxury tax. The thing that the expansion draft will do is take away overpaid talent from a lot of teams. Guys like Courtney Alexander, Forte, Jay WIlliams, and Laettner might all be picked up in a exp. draft. That could also be CC. If you think about it, CC would be a good guy off the bench with a 1 year deal. The luxury tax plays a role because if they don't renew it, some teams would be less prone to give up decent players just to get under the cap. Portland's whole fall off is due to the fact that the luxury tax was too high for the amount of championships they were bringing home. SO if the NBA does away with the luxury tax, then there will be fewer teams in the market for Hendu. There will still be those teams in the FA races of 2005 though.

Admin chillzatl Posted February 9, 2004 Admin Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 should be done by or during the all-star break. SO hopefully that will play into our favor. Though I honestly don't see us making any moves. Personally I don't think we should either. We aren't going to be a winner with our current group. The draft hype is starting to build and there will definitely be some stars in there. I think we need to be in the top 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
