I don't think the hawks can wait until next summer they gotta make a move now

They gotta try and trade for dwight then try and convince him to stay

I kind of agree but I think Smoove should do it. Smoove can convince him to come home. Atlanta is one of the best Basketball markets in the NBA even though it's a terrible Hawks market but we all know most people in the A only give a shit about superstars no matter the sport. Remember when we had Vick. Make a run at CP3, Steph Curry or some other PG and build our own big 3. I rather build a killer starting five if we land Dwight and don't land CP3.

Al Horford and the Dominican Republic National Team opened preliminary play at the FIBA Olympic Qualifying tournament in Venezuela with a 95-85 win over Korea. The Dominican Republic got off to a slow start and trailed 41-37 at the half. A big second half led by Al Horford helped carry John Calipari's club to the win.

Horford finished with 30 points, 12 rebounds and four assists while also going 10 of 14 from the field.

Al seems like he's healthy again

He said he still has to get his strength back.

Lol the hawks are not making the playoffs as currently constructed. Who is going to create a shot when it's time to close?

That's a good question. As of right now, Smith and Teague can create their shot but inconsistently, Al can score better than all of them but needs to be assisted. Right now, I don't see a reliable option. Regardless, they are going to win with defense. Without Horford who is one of the higher rated defenders by many advanced analytic they were in the top 6 in most important defensive categories. There is no reason why they can't finish just as high even without Joe. It will be tough to say but Atlanta is one of those teams that many fans and pundits count out before the season starts and they always do a lot better mainly because they are built for the regular season.

LMAO @ the Hawks winning the title if they get Dwight...we still run the division and the conference...you have to get through us first.

Yeah I wouldn't go that far right the heat are the top of the east

Bruh we just hype right now cause niggas started to lose hope and now there's a chance to get better

But if we do get dwight it would be fun to play the heat

+ Atlanta still has to through Orlando (even without Dwight) & Washington!!!

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Ya'll might get dwight whether its thru a trade this summer or free agency next summer.I believe ya'll have a strong chance of gettin dwight

You wont get chris paul

Homie aint comin to the east to play against the c's,bulls,heat,nets and knicks(All better teams than the hawks) plus he can get more money and an extra year from the clippers

We had to destroy and rebuild. We're going to have so much cap space next season. Right now we're just going to clear out all of the bums in our squad(it's like atleast 8 of em that's free agents next season) and sign some big names next season. It's kewl, we'll take that top draft pick, the Nets 1st round draft pick, and 50 elem million dollars in cap space. I could careless about goin to the playoffs and losing in the 1st round.

Only 2 ppl I can see staying on the team 2 years from now is Teague and Horford.

Not sold on Jeff. I just see him as a talented combo guard with little to no PG skills. He can hoop without question but he isn't a PG that I would start. He can be a special player off the bench like Jason Terry.

Washington should be tough depending on Wall. Orlando with Dwight is beatable and Orlando without Dwight is very beatable. Not really worry about them.

We might get Dwight, we probably won't get CP3. I think CP3 is a dream type shit. I don't see him leaving LA unless him and Sterling racist ass has a fallout. I rather target Steph Curry to play with Josh and Dwight if we land Dwight.

Still worth keeping. His contract is cheap. He can be our 6th man.

I agree. He is a valuable player. Not many 6th man in the NBA that can really play. Jeff is one of them. He can slash. Play offense and defense. He can score. Just don't look for him to run your offense to a T.

Marvin was a bum, but I don't know where the Joe Johnson hate comes from. I fuck with the Hawks on 2k and I'ma give em a try on 2k13. But it's not looking good.
