I know that the Hawks had a better record than Chicago & Miami when we were somewhat healthy & they weren’t.

No reason New York & Charlotte should have a better record I agree..but I think Toronto has a better team. They’re only missing Kawhi & Ibaka from their title team a couple seasons back.

John Collins turned down a extension cause he thinks he’s a max player, but he isn’t playing like one. Randle in New York is balling his ass off & JC should be doing the same.

Trae is one of the best play makers and assist man in the league..they gotta knock down the shots but they haven’t been.

And Trae has regressed shooting wise :yeshrug:

based off what he did last season I’ll give him more leeway cause he’s proven he can put up numbers.

Every young NBA player who played against Cam Reddish in AAU & College claim he’s the hardest they’ve ever had to guard and how much of a monster he is, but he’s only shown that a few times thus far in his career

I was a big Huerter fan but he can leave with Pierce :camby:


any rumors coming in? also any potential trades you all damn sure have the assets to do something major.

No matter the coach the hawks will be trash
Honestly, they got the talent. :jbhmm:They just need to put it all together and I think Nate could help. :manny:
Most people only know about Trae Young on their roster if at all but I think he's a bit overrated. He comes across as one of them "volume shooter" type guards but we'll see TO ME. He has room to grow.

John Collins is a solid player. Dude often reminds me of a young Lamarcus Aldridge. I really like the guards they drafted last year. Reddish and Hunter who I think can be better than RJ Barrett.

Reddish has more upside and some think he could be a star but I really like DeAndre Hunter's game. Wish we could get him on the Heat because i feel like dude's gonna be a problem once he better develops his ball handling and fully grows into his body.

I'm not mad at that I just want some new blood. I've seen some of these dudes like Udoka and a few others interviewing for multiple seasons...I also think some of these dudes were unjustly fired....I guess no point in me bringing up Mark Jackson for a job in Atlanta either huh.
Nobody trying to see Mark try to exorcise the city before his first game.

If trae young took a step back from being steph curry lite and embraced more of a distributor role and at least attempted on defense the Hawks could be in a better place they have other talented dudes who can hit shots...also the Hawks have enough talent and picks to make a move for a player if one became available...

He's averaging damn near 11 assists a game. How much more distribution do you need? :russ:

I can't believe Scott Brooks really survived the whole 5 years while being absolutely awful the entire time :russ:

this is ted leonsis dude let barry trotz go after the capitals won the stanley cup because he didn't want to pay him what he was worth
scott brooks has a job because ted leonsis does not want to pay brooks salary and a new coach

Stevens should be safe. He done had the celtics in the conference finals 3 times since he been the coach.

Danny Ainge needs to go. All those accumulated assets and Anthony Davis goes to the Celtics main rival.

Brooklyn was dead in the water almost 10 years ago and now they have surpassed the Celtics.
