dude is my age, pretty scary shit. I wonder if he is up for project Wiggins, the last college coach they hired didn't work too well. Larry Bird isn't walking through the door...

The Mavs aren't going to sign Al because he rates terribly in plus or minus and is a terrible compliment to Dirk.

Korver, 32 years old: 4 years $24mil.
Redick, 29 years old: 4 years $27mil.
This franchise...
:/

The only reason he's talking to Charlotte is to get the ball rolling behind Howard.
15 mil is lol. He's not getting that anywhere.

Seriously..JJ Redick is still improving, and can finally play with an elite PG (sorry Brandon Jennings ain't elite) that will get him more shots .Kyle Korver is what he is now and look at the PGs he has played with.

Maybe. But a sour deal after Mike Dunleavy went for 2 years $6 million.
Redick's a better player with better value and can do more for your team. Signed for 3 million more total.
That's his agent's fault. Everyone here was talking about how much of steal it was for the Clippers to get him on the deal they did. Should've demanded more money.
Kevin Martin and Budinger
Damn, we needed shooting and Flip sure delivered. I definitely like these pickups and its going to be nice seeing our wings actually hitting outside shots for once. I'm a bit worried about the D because AK is definitely not coming back now, but we desperately needed shooting. Hopefully some good team D concepts can save us
And man, wtf is OKC thinking? They basically traded Harden away for nothing. I hope Ibaka and perk are worth all that money they are paying them, because damn, I would so rather have harden over both those players by a ton

exploring free agency. wolves can match any offer, so hopefully Flip and Taylor do the smart thing and sign him

Didn't Chase Budinger also get signed to like 3 years and 16 million?
I just question the wisdom of paying a 32 year old small forward 24 million dollars in a league full of good small forwards.

Makes sense why Frank took the job plus those years.

Didn't VDN get a million annually for his coaching services?

Fuck it, give Pekovic the offer sheet.
I just want the hawks to do something other than jerking off.

You understand anything besides tank is fail right?
I've never watched summer league games before. Worth watching?

EC6 could be a decent pick up dpending on price.

Only if you care about hyping up prospects to pseudosuperstar status after they dominate a bunch of scrubs.
But seriously, there's no basketball until fucking October. This is all we get for the next four months. Check out the schedule and you can pick and choose games to watch where your favorite new rookie will be playing.

Given the Hawks track record, we'd end up with the 1 bust out of 6 potential all stars.
Josh Childress, Shelden Williams, Acie Law, Marvin Williams.
We did draft Pau Gasol though, but we traded him for Shareef Abdul Rahim.
Yeah I'm not tanking. No fucking way.
Summer League shows you important things like who shows up fat and who gets their ankles broken by Jeremy Lin

Earl Clark would be a big upgrade from Lamar Odom at least... wait is he still on contract?

Off of those 4 players here are the players the Hawks could have had:
Acie Law: Thaddeus Young, Rodney Stuckey, Jared Dudley, Wilson Chandler, Rudy Fernandez, Aaron Brooks, Carl Landry, Marc Gasol
Shelden: Brandon Roy, Rudy Gay, JJ Redick, Rajon Rondo, Paul Millsap
Maaaahvin: Deron Williams, Chris Paul, Raymond Felton, Andrew Bynum, Danny Granger, David Lee
Childress: Luol Deng, Andre Iguodala, Al Jefferson, Jameer Nelson, Kevin Martin, Trevor Ariza
Atlanta Hawks. Where tanking is not an option.

No lie. He's the kind of guy who gets his value inflated by playing with a guy like CP3. he's athletic and all hustle. His J comes and goes, but he tries to get every board and has alright hands.
Liek I said, as long as they don't overpay him he'll be a pretty decent get.

You can find out if a guy is in trouble pretty quick from summer league occasionally.
We all knew T-Rob was in trouble when he was getting bodied by guys playing in a warzone somewhere.

Agreed on TRob. Dude looked like ass and wasn't getting his chain took, but actually giving it away.
MorisUkunRasik

Sac sucks and all but he played a bit of PF in summerleague too and his chain got took at the same rate. Also couldn't rebound to save his life at any position. I remember him getting praise for his 'motor'. His 'motor' was basically nonexistent. Basically things that should be apparent regardless of what position you're playing were nowhere to be found.
You wouldn't have a motor either after ESPN made your little sister a part of one of the most painful interviews of all time on draft night.

Even if this is TRob's last season, he has made almost 7 million. Mission accomplished, TRob has been saved.
