Joe Johnson went to the Allstar game 7 times as a Hawk.

He is referencing his Suns stint before he became a Hawk and the value we gave up to trade for him.

Anything happen yet?

@AHF .... I don't say this often but .... prepare the banhammer! 

But first, lemme take this hook outta my cheek 'cause I fell for that one wholeheartedly. 

Worse, she knew she'd at least have me having to read it twice. I feel so targeted.

That's not the market that has been set.  It comes from some obscure website with no sources.  No Spurs reputable media has even repeated that.  

You guys really have some wild swings during this time of year.  99% of what we hear is BS and teams posturing.  It's not the setting of markets.

Who on this messageboard suggested the Hawks trade for Murray back in December 2021? Me!  Who do I trust? Me!

I'm just now seeing this from this article:

4) Multiple sources have told me the only player on the Hawks the Spurs would value as a possible replacement for a first round pick is Onyeka Okongwu. The 21-year-old big man averaged 8.2 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 20.7 minutes per game last season.

Done deal then?

I just want to make sure we aren't talking past each other.

Market value is not what a seller is asking for.  Market is what teams will pay.

I can tell you I want $250k from you for my 2016 Honda Civic.  But the market will tell you that people are willing to pay ~$17k.  The $250k is asking price.  The $17k is market price.  A seller can refuse to sell for market price but a seller doesn't unilaterally dictate market price since that is dictated by the amount other people are willing to pay.

What deals in the past do you see as the richest that the market has actually paid for someone with 1 season above a 16.5 PER and 1 season above a .087 WS/48?  Let's use the richest deals in NBA history for such a player and assume that is the market.  Who are your comparables and what did they fetch?

So that we are not talking past each other, did you see the last sentence I wrote that said " that doesn't mean there can't be a market correction down."  I'm fully aware that San Antonio is ATTEMPTING to set the market with their offer. 

Now, as everybody waits on pins and needles waiting for the trade, sure enough, Minnesota and some unannounced team out of the East are rumored to be hot and heavy in pursuit of Murray while offering THREE first rounders and a TOP young player that would be EQUIVALENT to that fourth pick, which I'm hearing is pressuring the Hawks to offer OO as that fourth pick from the Hawks to counter.
