No one wants to play with Trae lol 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite being a better player he will be making significantly less than FVV. It was one of the biggest outliers in FA behavior and he did it with the most heartfelt message of loyalty and wanting to remain in and connect with Atlanta. Pretending like no one wants to play with Trae seems really desperate. I guess next we'll hear how no one wants to coach Trae despite Snyder choosing Atlanta over numerous other potential landing spots as one of the top candidates this offseason. 1 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleachkit Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 So it looks like we are in a holding pattern. Probably nether side is willing to budge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's say the Siakam trade isn't closed, Raptors stay stubborn and lose him for nothing in UFA. What are the realistic star trade targets now (besides JB and KAT, because those players are NOT on the block)? I'm sure the Hawks can run it back sans JC + plus Patty Mills, I think that team compete for a middle level playoff spot with Quin. However, going deep against a Dame Miami and Boston with KP we might not have it yet. We haven't seen none of the teams you mention play or even put together yet. It would be one thing saying this in January.. but it's meaningless in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Mule Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 WHAT IF ATLANTA MAKES NO MORE MOVES?? A- Hawks would be worse than last season with no JC. B- Hawks would still be a .500 club next season. C- Hawks would be better with the new players we have + Quin and all his new assistants.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm optimistic and go with C - Hawks would be better with the new players we have + Quin and all his new assistants. Addition by subtraction. JC being traded opens up more minutes for the "youngins." ™ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member JeffS17 Posted July 11, 2023 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 [Outsider take incoming] Based on everything we've seen, I really feel like the handshake deal is done and now Toronto is doing one last round of diligence and fan preparation. Trading away your franchise player(?) requires a long news cycle if we've learned anything in the past. If you don't control your fan bases emotions with a nice, slow burn of reality coming at them, they'll emotionally over react (has anyone seen @sturt??) and the more intense negative feelings the fans have, the harder to shake off. You gotta control the narrative on how this is actually a good thing. Toronto still has tickets to sell. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
