Premium Member JayBirdHawk Posted January 5, 2023 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 36 Days to the trade deadline. January 5th - Teams can sign players to 10 day contracts January 10th - The contracts of Martin ($1 mil).and Vit ($1.5 mil) become fully guaranteed for the rest of the season. Hawks are currently $1.7 million below the tax line. (Reminder that DJ and CC have likely incentives that get us close to the tax line). Hawks have 2 trade exceptions $3.6 mil (Huerter) and $4.5 mil (Harkless) they can use to trade for a player on a 1 year contract. [Cannot be combined] Expiring contracts: JHol (6.2), Frank (2.4), AHol (1.9). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member akay Posted January 5, 2023 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 I have to think that we're not going to be making any hasty trades this season knowing our head coach is about to be out sooner than later. Also, we're only in Trae's first year in his 5 year deal, I keep telling myself to have perspective and temper my expectations for this team since its clear though we have a contender level roster worth of players, we desperately lack the offensive system and buy in from everyone to consistently play at a hard enough level required to make a deep run in the playoffs. At most this trade deadline I'd hope to see J Holiday outta here so Nate can stop playing him over the rooks. We have cheap talent that can help us win games + be developed at the same time, and them sitting on the bench so Nate can try to squeeze out wins doesn't really float my boat. Wonder what value J-Holiday + 2nd rp can net, it'll be addition by subtraction but then also addition if we get someone neutral-positive back. Again, want to say sorry to @sturt for saying Justin Holiday and Jae Crowder were similar level impact players 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether anyone walks thru is the question. Talk is cheap. Right now, only talk. Just waiting for that 1st move. It may be many days away. It could happen soon. No fire. But, we begin to smell smoke! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member JayBirdHawk Posted January 5, 2023 Author Premium Member Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 Have the Hawks ever made a big mid-season trade to improve or shake things up for the better? (meaning - not a tank trade) It's always been smaller peripheral trades like Rondo/Lou. I'm scouring teams for a trade involving JHol ($6.2 mil) and Frank K ($2.4 mil). (I have an idea, will post later) 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the simpler definition of "not a tank trade" the Nique trade has to qualify. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant a big trade to shake things up for the better. It makes all of us sad. In our best season as the #1 seed in the East with Jordan on hiatus and we had to **** it up. Sigh... While a bonehead move, I do think it was done with the intent of enhancing our ability to compete that year and in future years but what a mistake. As far as actual midseason moves, the point is on the money. We have a remarkable record for not being involved in any consequential mis-season trades. Hopefully we will get it right if we pull the trigger this year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member MarylandHawk Posted January 5, 2023 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 I can’t think of one. If fact I don’t know that anybody has really done that. Boston when they traded for the dude from San Antonio. They ended up in the Finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
