Popular Post Spud2nique Posted May 6, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 Whether we trade up or down 3-5 spots (most likely up) or stand pat, MY GUY IS: JORDAN HAWKINS I don’t want any of you foos coming on later saying “oh that’s who we had”… Unless you wanna ride with UNC Spud, @kg01 @marco102 and the folks that brought you AJ. Oh crap, he plays AJ’s position!!! FML I don’t care, he’s still the best dude out there. ps I’m also the one who picked Trey Murphy out of the pack a couple years back. I have an eye for this just ask @NBASupes he knows I’m the one. Hawkins to Hawks!!!! 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Mule Posted May 6, 2023 Report Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) Spud: If he's this good he will not last until we get there to draft him. He will be gone. Hawks need shooting and this prospect seems to fill the bill. If we're voting, I vote with you! GO ATL HAWKS !!

That’s true Gramps but a lotta talent around 1-15 everywhere you look so I checked out a few mocks and added up the total and took a mean of the 5 mocks . 73 divided by the 5 mocks=14.6 We pick at 15. Peep the mocks gramps. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some dudes who hit on far fewer than you, but walk around here like they're eggsperts. I want you to admit Kabengale is a bust tho.

I will say with AJ on the roster as a SG it’s a long shot we draft or get Hawkins but he’s my fav prospect around our pick at 15. Maybe I can be the Billy Knigjt of shooting guards 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Mule Posted May 12, 2023 Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 I know. The post season is still in full swing. When will these "other" things begin to take place? Free agency. Trades. The Draft. Things that we on the Squawk can get excited over. The stuff that has a tendency to change what our roster will look like next season. Who stays? Who goes? Trade or release? Let them go? Hold on tight? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In those respective drafts I went OO and AJ (who went one pick after Mark coincidentally). I think all 4 dudes are solid. I went with Hawkins based on BPA (around 15ish; things change if we move around) but taking him as a SG, feels like it crowds AJ and others. No playing time unless G league of selected. So, @Gray Mulegramps, do you have a particular prospect in this draft? I’ll be honest I didn’t watch a lot of college ball but rather study tape and watch to see if it translates to the pro game. Good times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud2nique Posted May 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 This dude Hawkins shoots on the move, from UConn too, that sound Rip Hamiltonish or even Klay Thompsonish, perfect next to Trae! I WANT JORDAN HAWKINS!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud2nique Posted May 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 Hey @marco102 you and I … and @kg01 All had AJ, curious who ya got this year between the 10-25 prospect range I guess, or in our neighborhood of the pick? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't kept up with the draft like normal. I'm going to really dig in and start looking at prospects in the next couple of weeks. I hope work slows down so I can see who fits best. I like the following in no order of preference. 1. GG Jackson 2. Dereck Lively 3. Dariq Whitehead 4. Nick Smith Jr. 5. Taylor Hendricks 6. Leonard Miller 7. Brice Sensabaugh Who are you liking @Spud2nique? Edited May 17, 2023 by marco102 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spud2nique Posted May 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 @marco102 players on both our lists are: GG Jackson Dereck Lively Brice Sensabaugh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud2nique Posted May 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 My fav though is Jordan Hawkins but like I said, he’s a shooting guard, we got Bogi and AJ already and they are both most likely staying but I’d still go BPA, I don’t wanna miss out on a great player because we were deep at the position at the time of drafting, that’s crap, BPA, watch his tapes @marco102 he’s got that NBA game and he flys off screens and nails shots, he reads screen really well, I liken his offense to a Rip or Klay, he dribbles waaay better than Klay that fool can’t dribble but both come off screens gunning and we need that, we only have Bogi for that and AJ is in the wings waiting for his turn. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Mule Posted May 17, 2023 Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 Depending on who we keep and who we trade away must be considered. Also, who has already been taken when our turn comes. If we shuffle the center position then I want the Hawks to draft Dereck Lively II who is very young, but has a knack for defense and is a 7' 1" center from Duke. If the Hawks keep Capela, 0017 and Bruno, they have no room for him. We don't know who they plan to keep. Our draft pick must depend somewhat on so many other things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Jody23 Posted May 17, 2023 Premium Member Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 I haven't gotten into the draft prospects just yet. With Griffin and Johnson on the roster, I'm not sure the Hawks will be using this pick instead of trading it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Griffin and Johnson on the roster, I'm not sure the Hawks will be using this pick instead of trading it. With our cap situation as it currently stands, I think it's important to have low salaried players with potential like AJ and JJ. Knowing how drafts go, there is usually a player or two that falls out of the lottery.. Hawks are at the ideal spot to take advantage. If the Hawks do trade the pick it will be at or after the draft. I don't see it happening before the draft. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
