Another GMs poll, no respect

Wow. Dissing Trae, DM and OO.

Good, the underdogs are back.

These GM’s are trolling us at this point.

[macdaddy]

This is so depressing looking at this poll.   I wish Trae hadn't retired.

When Atlanta gets an NBA team maybe they'll crack some of these lists.  

(sarcasm off)

[macdaddy]

Some thought Hawks had to be a winner to get respect.  Some said we had to have a true star.   Now we know none of that really matters.   It's a league where a total loser franchise like the Knicks has more respect.   It's going to take a championship or maybe two before things change. 

[Sothron]

The disrespect is real and it will continue. Trae would have to win at least one possibly two titles as the main guy before he finally got his respect.

Wow.  Great minds!!!

Good, they don't see us coming. 

Forget the media... has Atlanta ever needed them?

Let them be there to catch the tickertape at the parade!

[Spud2nique]

Know what the funny thing is… when we win they would all say they knew it was coming and be thirsty for credit.

GM’s are morons that’s why many get canned like tuna.

These are all bad, but I literally laughed out loud at JALEN BRUNSON and PJ TUCKER being mentioned over Dejounte. Maybe they forgot about him because we did the deal so efficiently in the beginning of the off-season. That's the only explanation. He'll be viewed as #1 at the end of the season.

you guys and gals need to stop whining.  Do you remember the playoffs?   Do you remember getting curb stomped in the playoffs?

 

Face it, this team isn't going to get any respect nor do they deserve any until they prove it this season.

 

You remember the ECF run a couple years ago?  And then do you remember how the next season everyone was picking us to finish top 4 in the East?  I don't remember any of you complaining that the media was being too nice to us and thought to highly of us.

Y'all sound like whiny hypocrites.  I said "y'all" so you bumpkins would understand.

Well I only understand you when youse got a hot dog in yer mouth, carpetbagger.

(I said that in my best Capona-era Chicagoan voice.  How'd I do?)

Seriously though, complainin' ain't gotta make sense, sir.

What a great point.  We need to EARN respect like the Knicks, Cavs, Nuggets, Mavs, Nets, and Philly have done year after year.   

[Gray Mule]

Isn't it great!  Everyone and everything in the NBA is bigger, better and smarter than anything we have in Atlanta!

Any time any of these teams meet the Hawks, whether in Atlanta or away, their team must win or be upset by the poor Atlanta lads.  We all know that this is true.  We just read the rankings.

Exactly.  Read that comment "remember the playoffs?" and started scratching my head wondering if I was the only one that remembered teams like the Knicks or Cavs didn't even make the playoffs but still appear on these lists.

PJ Tucker over DM?  What?

The Trae hate is real.  He led the league in total assists and assist% last year and has been at the top of both categories for the last 3 years but doesn't make the list of top passers?    (Curry made the list but Trae didn't?!?!?)

this is the only one that Hawks fans have a right to be upset about.

You sound like a non Hawk fan. We all have our problems.

Why the hell should we have been complaining we finished top 2 in the East the season before you said it yourself.

Maaaaaaaaan, you reachin guy. There’s homerism and optimism on squawk but you bringin the opposite and that’s a downer.  Don’t be that dude, or go be that dude on FakeGM, ya I said it. 
 

This is HAWKS COUNTRY!!!! We love our team.

Trae did get one what looks like one vote (3%) on the best NBA point guard. It's safe to assume that vote was from us.
