gurpilo Posted June 25 Report Share Posted June 25 I think we have a strong core of 11 players, our guard rotation is strong, we lack defense on the front court, rebounding, size and overall team strength. We are deep. We can compete with this team and get 5-8th seed on the East, probably an exit on 1st round. Improvement should be made on the front court to go further. Our best trading pieces are Collins, Capela and Bogi and we should look for players with more defense and size on the frontcourt. We could sacrifice depth on the backcourt for a star player on the frontcourt, that is clear. Or we could try to go to FA to add a PF/C with defense and size. To be able to do that we need to dump salary. Improving this team is not going to be easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member JeffS17 Posted June 25 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 25 Kreji/Martin/Bruno guaranteed and leave one slot open is my preference. Vit brings good vibes, Martin has potential and seems to gel with the guys, and Bruno is Bruno, we love him. I look for cultural / off-court fit more than on-court need for 11-15 slots, but I think those three are good for both. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm cool on these 'great' euro players that thumb their noses at the league as if they're 'above' it due to their great(sic) euro careers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trae, DJ, Dre, JJ, CC Bogi, AJ, Bey, OO. After that it gets interesting, because you have slew of young talent chomping at the bit to crack the 10-12 spots. Garuba makes sense as a stretch big. Then you have the rook, Bufkin, along with your DNP reserves from last season looking to progress: Martin, Krejci, Matthews, Bruno, etc… Lots of familiar faces still around the building until we make another move.

NBASupes Posted July 2 Report Share Posted July 2 What's going to be real interesting is if the Hawks decide to give Lundy a 4 year deal. If they do that, what does that mean for two of Bruno, Vit, and Martin. Only one can stay if we give both Gueye and Lundy four year deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
