Enjoyed being an Atlanta Hawks fan for the 50-ish years I did... or a lot of em, anyway... not so much the Isiah Rider period. Bye. And I'm not even kidding. This is a stupid way to spend any more of whatever precious minutes I have left on this planet in this life, for me at least. If anyone wants/needs to engage henceforth, try me at spook1320-generaluse@yahoo.com. Good luck to all in whatever personal or family or professional endeavors you pursue. It's been great being part of a community with you. I feel you here. This is an abysmal move that is inexcusable. They could have made this deal at the deadline if they really wanted to avoid the tax. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theheroatl Posted June 26, 2023 Report Share Posted June 26, 2023 Good trade. Finally we can move on from the negative publicity of having too many bad contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Popular Post Sothron Posted June 26, 2023 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted June 26, 2023 Ressler would not let them trade JC last year. He also vetoed another trade to OKC two years ago. Now we trade JC for ...this isn't even peanuts. KH at least got us a first rounder back. JC gave us back LT relief for Ressler and a huge TPE that the FO will try to use to get a guy. Emphasis on try. As myself and other insiders warn you guys and gal it takes two teams to make a trade. In addition two GMs can agree to a trade and one owner can veto it. See above for glaring examples. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now any report of Ressler being willing to pay the tax is beyond suspect in my book. He'll have the full offseason to set the record straight if he is serious about this team this year. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear as day.. If they end up in the tax, the team is winning. If the team stinks by mid-season, they won't be in the tax. Why don't people get this... YOU DON'T PAY THE TAX THEN WIN.... Only in the case we get a superstar added which raises the expectations of a top seed then the tax will be readily acceptable. Literally the Clippers are in trouble here.. Balmer is just gonna pay big bucks on their "shot" to win. Edited June 26, 2023 by theheroatl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense. He's the GM -- not the coach. It's not his job to tell the coach how to coach.... get a new coach to solve that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our future requires sacrifices from today, and JC has been long overdue, wish we could've gotten Barnes and the FRP for him last year, but maybe that's another lesson for Tony to leave his grubby hands to himself and let the basketball people make the basketball decisions. This is definitely the first domino to fall in building the team Quin wants to coach, so have some patience, see what we do and I'm sure we'll enjoy where the team is headed. Unless... you think Kyle Korver is bad at his job and can't evaluate talent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been in the playoffs 3 years in a row including making the ECF and haven't paid the tax yet. The team is now on a run of shedding "core" players two seasons in a row to avoid the tax and doing that every year isn't going to help us win. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
