Unfortunately that's like 60 million in the SF position.  

Might be more than that

I am still scratching my head over Hunter’s absence.

Ayo burd, give us the bottom line.  Is this thing worth the listen?  I'm finishing up my Slow Horses audiobooks (spy novels) so I need something to listen to but I don't want my ears to bleed.

I don't have any issue with Brad so I thought it was fine. Tyler is just a fan of the Hawks. It's basically just 2 dudes talking about the Hawks roster and things that need to happen this offseason, in their opinion. Nothing earth shattering. 

If you are looking for any news or hard hitting journalism you are barking up the wrong tree with this. If you just want to hear two guys thoughts on how to make the Hawks better, it's fine.

That's what I figured.  If I want hard hitting journalism, I'll just go to the Edey thread and watch grown men call each other poopy heads or whatever.

Nothing would make me happier this offseason than to see him shipped away for some mixture of players who can replace his shooting and upgrade his on ball defense and nonexistent rebounding and playmaking. 

He really is the weak link that’s holding this team back and no amount of weak metric stats can change what the eye test is telling us. 

The metric stats show it too.

This was a good listen. Shout out to @JayBirdHawk for posting the links.

Interesting to hear some similarities to what we've all been talking about.  The glaring lack of wings and defense, in particular. 

Interesting, when talking draft centers, there was a glaring omission from potential targets they named.  I won't spoil it until hotSupes makes me mad, then I'll toss that grenade into the punch bowl.

Good show too...catch it when you can.

I listen to Rowland at times because he’s the closest thing to “insider” info outside of some posters from the Squawk.  
One thing he said on another pod is that until he hears otherwise Trae would still be a Hawk.  Said after the play in loss to Chicago that no source he trusts is saying either that Trae wants out or ownership wants to move him.  Although he did acknowledge that he thinks for the first time since Trae was drafted that could change.  Basically be careful listening to national media smoke on Trae.

I will say Brad does not really focus on insider scoops, but he will address rumors and kill them if he has info.  So he really separates fact from fiction in the rumor mill and almost never reports a new rumor or scoop.

Yep, that's what drove me to the books.  

We need an offseason thread about good shows, movies, etc to catch now that the NBA stopped existing.

The podcasts with Brad and Tyler are excellent!
