Not one single source from Atlanta has said this. This sounds like what one of the sources says what teams want from Atlanta. Don't mean that's what we want to trade.

The Hawks may have taken Paul Millsap off the trade market but the team has been active ahead of next week’s NBA trade deadline, according to a person familiar with the situation.
The Hawks’ interest is in adding to the current roster. There is no guarantee that a deal will be made before the Feb. 23 deadline. However, more than one deal is possible ahead of the stretch run of the regular season and playoffs.
To be considered in trade talks, is that the Hawks have an open roster spot available. Lamar Patterson’s second 10-day contract expires on Friday.

In addition, Tiago Splitter could be moved with his $8.5 million salary attractive to some teams. Splitter has been injured and has not played a game this season. Splitter is one of several players with expiring contracts including Thabo Sefolosha, Kris Humphries, Mike Scott and Mike Muscala. Tim Hardaway Jr. is a restricted free agent and Millsap can opt out of the final year of his contract. The Hawks have had discussions with teams about Sefolosha and Hardaway.

That was went they were talking trades during the Millsap time period. That wasn't recent is what I am saying.

It said has, in past tense. You do remember when we had trade talk with them in the past couple of months

Breh you just said this:

You arguing tense is semantics. The fact is that Chris Vivlamore is the beat writer for the Atlanta Journal Constitution. He's reporting on a local level what the Hawks are doing and he's reporting that they have had discussions about trading THJR & Thabo, which contradicts what you posted.

Hawks CEO Steve Koonin was on 92.9 The Game today and reiterated that "the Hawks will be buyers" before the trade deadline. We'll see what actually happens, I just don't get the feeling that teams are gonna be lining up for WOAT, Splitter's contract or any of the other bums we're trying to unload

Splitter is an expiring so his contract is definitely tradable but Bazemore's is just

Through one half of basketball this season it's arguably the worst contract Bud has given out and I'd argue one of the top 5 worst in Hawks history, up there with Speedy Claxton and Joe Johnson's deal

So Hawks couldn't offer a better package to get Cousins?
