The Mega Super Rumor Thread (Part 2)

[Diesel]

Here's something I would like to see us try...

Philly is shopping Thybulle. 

Portland is very interested. 

Philly was bent over on the Harden trade.  

What about this.

Gallo and a first to Philly.

Thybulle to Portland

Josh Hart to us.

Philly has wanted a third team to absorb the contract in a Thybulle trade.   They don't have money going forward.   That's us with Gallo's contract.   I like Hart.  Want Hart.  put him in coach.

I don't know why you got Brogdon as the worse.   A healthy Brogdon actually becomes the best of all of them.  6'5" 225 is just what we need and a guy who has done 19/9 with very few turnovers...

This board has somehow vilified Brogdon who is definitely the best match for Trae because of his injuries?

OK.. they are bad.. but not as Bad as Oladipo's...  Oladipo has had 2 quad tears...

Here's Brogdon's.  I have emphasized the things that are bad...

Not true.

The worst would be Trae and Spyda Mitchell. 

Agreed. IF Brogdon could stay healthy, he'd be the best fit.. Trae might be taller than Sexton.. lol

How huge? (Of a fan)

Got kicked of the court in State Farm arena for trying to sneak on the court just to get on the TV screen behind Nique. But hey now I can tell my kids that I was on tv with the human highlight reel.

Got kicked out of a bar for turning the channel from nascar to the hawks game. 
Got in trouble at work for watching the game and screaming when we would make a nice play (I work at a hospital). 
I’d go on but you get the point

If and when the Atlanta Hawks make a trade, some are sure to say, "We gave too much."  That's just the nature of us.  MarkCase is correct.  Draft picks are used as currency in many trades.  Just remember, the better we play in the regular season the further away from the #1 pick our draft position.  The better we play, the value of our draft pick drops more.

Looking at our final roster when all the smoke settles and we look and see what we have left, remember all the young draft picks who remain.  We're still a young squad!

Under repair.

People still think we overpaid for Joe Johnson because we gave up 2 1st rd picks + the great Boris Diaw and a frontloaded contract.

interesting!

I got more, Atlanta likes him at 4/100 which is the same as JCs. This is higher than his real market value but not a massive overpay like JC. 

New York and Murray. 

I was told NY made a significant offer including Cam Reddish and Randle in a package deal with SA. SA is not interested in Randle at all and Randle market is give us two 1sts for him status around the league. 

If we can land Ayton for $25M a year and by just sending Capela, that’s a no brainer. I’d even send a heavily protected first but it sounds like we have more leverage than we thought. 

And if our competition for Murray is only NY I think we’re in good shape.

Ayton>>>>>>>>>>>>Capela!

Ayton is a huge upgrade offensively, downgrade defensively, upgrade availability.

Overall though, our offense is really good already outside of secondary shot creation, Ayton isn't worth the farm or the max he wants. At least not for our team, we need some hard nosed defense, and Clint can provide.

It's a hard choice, but I think I'd perhaps to JC for Ayton in a swap if contracts were the same, but Clint for near max Ayton? Nah 

If we can get Ayton's contract to start around $22 to $24 million, I'd be all in because that will give us some wiggle room after the trade to sign some depth.  Would still probably have to trade John or Bogi.  

This may be their master plan, I'd be willing to give up a first round pick to get rid of Bogi. If they can trade Bogi without taking back salary (I know big if),  They have about $14 - $17 million to fill out the rest of the rost

Lineup

1. Trae/Murray/Coop

2. Murray/Huerter/AG

3. Hunter/Huerter/ AG

4. Collins/JJ

5. Ayton/OO

I'd try to find a three and D wing or resign Wright, but the minutes will be limited.  Also, would be interested in Mitchell Robinson at that point as a third big center we can throw out there. 

Just my pipe dream though.

This makes no sense. It was $112m last year so obviously 10% is 123 which is probably what he means. WTF dude smokes too much weed. We all knew it would be around there. If it is $122 x 1.10 = $134.. a bunch of teams gonna ask for their trades back lmao

JC/Ayton pairing is gonna struggle defensively imo...

Man, that will help the Hawks so much.  10% is about $134.2 Million.  The Hawks can really use that extra $12.2 million in a sign and trade with Ayton.

Edit: Thanks for letting me know @JayBirdHawk.  Got excited for nothing.

How's it gonna struggle? We barely switch defensively. If the scheme stays the same, Ayton is a capable drop defender.

Thats NBA championship territory right there.  Thats why this impasse on getting Murray is beyond frustrating.
