Hawks making all the right moves?

Ferry da god

 

[Talon]

What in the world is going on?

How is Ferry making intelligent moves?!

 

[Matrix]

Rockets watch the Hawks... learn the ways of the tank!

 

[giga]

No more Marvin. No more JJ. Oh my god look at all dat cap space.

 

[darkside31337]

The craziest thing about the Hawks offseason is they arent even in tank mode (yet). They still have their two best players left in Horford and Smith and now have plenty of cap. They could go for it now with an improved squad or trade off Smith to enter tank mode.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Pau for Smith and Teagues is coming...I can feel it.

Give into Pau lust Hotlanta.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Hawks might be going all out to sign Chris Paul.

 

[reilo]

The Nets and Hawks have agreed in principle to complete the Joe Johnson trade, league sources tell Y! Sports.

.

 

[Talon]

Hawks might be going all out to sign Chris Paul.

Correcting Billy Knight's mistake.

 

[Adam Blade]

AND THERE WAS A FIRESALE!

 

[alr1ght]

Hawks weren't winning shit with that lineup. Tank so hard is the way to go.

 

[diehard]

what a terrible trade

 

[reilo]

what a terrible trade

Now can you stop pretending that you thought Devin Harris was a good PG?

 

[Brinbe]

Ferry locks up EOTY a day into FA.

 

[SUPREME1]

Hawks making all the right moves?

Ferry da god

Ferry da magic fairy

Hennigan must be laughing his ass off.

you seriously don't pay attention to my posts do you?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Don't the Mavs have even less to trade than Brooklyn did?

 

[Glorified G]

At the very worst, at least the Hawks have a shot at Shabazz/Noel next year

 

[SoulPlaya]

Can Mavs sign both Dwight and Deron?

 

[Adam Blade]

Which is worse, The Decision or The Scam?

 

[darkside31337]

At the very worst, at least the Hawks have a shot at Shabazz/Noel next year

Not yet. Horford + Smith is good enough to keep them out of the cellar.

 

[fredrancour]

Can Mavs sign both Dwight and Deron?

can't sign dwight when he's not a free agent.

 

[diehard]

i have no idea whether the Jazz got better or worse this off-season.

like.. no idea

 

[SoulPlaya]

can't sign dwight when he's not a free agent.

Right.

Trade Dirk!

 

[jobber]

Can Mavs sign both Dwight and Deron?

Technically, yes but the team would have to gut everyone outside Dirk.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

i have no idea whether the Jazz got better or worse this off-season.

In KOC we trust.

Marvin can have 2 or 3 good games a month.

 

[Branduil]

Would that really be a bad thing?

Deron, Dirk, Dwight, and 13 scrubs>most teams in the NBA.

 

[Oozer3993]

Why would Deron want to leave the Nets? They have Joe Johnson!

 

[Talon]

At the very worst, at least the Hawks have a shot at Shabazz/Noel next year

...losing Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams (all of <6 ppg) isn't dragging this team into the Lottery.

 

[diehard]

Marvin can have 2 or 3 good games a month.

yeah but you could say the same about Harris

 

[zero margin]

Blazers contacting Billups, mentor for Lillard I guess. Show him what a pass is I'm guessing.

 

[Glorified G]

Why would Deron want to leave the Nets? They have Joe Johnson!

Don't forget Gerald Wallace!

 

[reilo]

Blazers contacting Billups, mentor for Lillard I guess. Show him what a pass is I'm guessing.

The only thing Billups can teach these days is asshole threes.

 

[diehard]

i feel like this is Karma for always making fun of Atlanta for taking Marvin Williams instead of Deron or Paul

 

[Glorified G]

...losing Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams (all of <6 ppg) isn't dragging this team into the Lottery.

They're rumors of the Hawks shopping Josh Smith. It looks like a firesale right now.

 

[giga]

yeah but you could say the same about Harris

He'll be off our books next year

 

[captmcblack]

So the Nets are basically fucked on Dwight Howard, then.

If they resign Williams, a Williams/Johnson/Wallace/Humphries-Kardashian/Lopez lineup isn't awful with Brooks off the bench, right?

 

[MetalFearSolid]

so what are the chances of the Nets getting Dwight Howard next year?

 

[Glorified G]

They pretty much replace the hawks as the preliminary first/second round fodder.

 

[giga]

I don't wanna get in Dwight Howard's business but lol Why would you wanna play for the Nets over teams such as the Lakers,Bulls, and Mavs

Jared dudley tweet lol

Upside:

All those defunct Williams jerseys all of a sudden just because a ton more useful this offseason!

 

[Talon]

Josh asked to be traded. They aren't rumors - we know he's going. He's expiring, after all.

Al's the only player (maybe Devin, dunno about his contract) that we have signed after this season.. This gives us the flexibility to chase one of the 2013 FAs.

Howard acts like he's picking out fucking shoes to wear. Must be nice to be in his world.

Considering that 90% of the league thinks a big 3 plus some undrafted players and ring chasers can win a championship, you may be right.

 

[giga]

Oh we're shopping Josh, but we're holding onto Al. Josh is expiring. Al's the only player (maybe Devin, dunno about his contract) that we have signed after this season.. This gives us the flexibility to chase one of the 2013 FAs.

Devin only has this year left. 2013 is wide open for us with just Teague and Horford.

HI FIVE

 

[Gigglepoo]

It seems like Ferry looked at the roster, decided he couldn't win with certain guys, and decided to dump them at all cost. Smart move. Though Josh Smith could flourish on a contender.

true dat, he used to rip my ass with those in 2K. didn't miss. ever.
