I think Mikey and I are hearing the same things in terms of what to expect back in return. I'm not allowed to say anything more than that. Not sure if Mikey has the same restriction but if a source asks to keep something mum it stays that way. I can just say expect him to be gone as early as he eligible to be traded. I also now know why DJM signed the extension. I won't share that until he is no longer a Hawk because it would be moot at that point as to why he signed it. I hate sounding cryptic but I'm trying to let you guys and gal know what's going on without betraying sources confidence. Edit: young player PLUS picks is what I am expecting at this point. I also have been told the FO has went from buyers to sellers for several other players now. Only Trae and JJ are safe. This could be a real cleaning out the locker room and making way for rookies and young guys to play the rest of the season. Is this just a stand alone DJ trade?

REHawksFan Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 (edited) Fyi, everything I've seen says January 15 is DJMs trade eligibility date. Also, I guess this means we are a no go on the KAT thing. Figures.... Edited January 7 by REHawksFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you can't say it I expect its because Murray signed the extension with a handshake deal with the FO that if the Trae pairing along with the Quinn hire didn't work out and we get off to a bad start, we would work to send him to his desired destination. Maybe to another organization with a lot of Klutch clients (Lakers?). That has to be the only explanation to why he signed such a team friendly team because the hawks HAD to work out some kind of deal with him because if Dejounte didn't sign the hawks were going to be screwed. Historically Klutch clients NEVER take discounts. Reading between the lines, I don't think Hawk fans are going to be too happy with the return IMO but we will see. 16 minutes ago, Sothron said: Edit: young player PLUS picks is what I am expecting at this point.

The hawks are too far down the standing and the east is too strong to make a short term win now move. Hawks needs to fundamentally rebuild the entire roster to fit Quin's style. No more band aids I'm guessing going after a 3rd "star" route was no longer feasible once they realize Murray wanted out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Jody23 Posted January 7 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 7 The Hawks officially announced Murray signed his extension on July 9th. So, I think Jan. 9 would be the earliest for trade eligibility. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bleachkit Posted January 7 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 7 Murray is a pretty good player, and he's on a reasonable deal. Unless the trade in a clear win, I would strongly consider keeping him. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After they couldn't make a deal for the 3rd player they wanted and realized they couldn't improve the team they turned sellers. A few weeks ago Tony was hesitant to get into LT territory without a sure thing in winning as a top 4 east team. They tried to get Siakam in the spring and he won't sign an extension unless traded to Philly or NY. It's rebuild time with the Hawks. I personally don't think Trae is the answer but we will see. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
