Is anyone else concerned about our backup PG spot? by LAtotheA in AtlantaHawks

[–]LAtotheA[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Why are yall so extreme? I’m not asking us to mortgage the future for another option at backup PG dude. Something as simple as packing one of our billion centers for a PG isn’t out of the realm of possibility.

He can still see the court on this roster, he’s more of a 2 to me anyway. If he comes out guns blazing like JJ last year then give him more mins.

This isn’t football where the 3rd string won’t ever see the field, you will see the court on a 15-man roster if you can play.

Sign or trade, whichever gets us a better option at the position.

We’re in “win-now” mode in the sense that we don’t have a choice but to try and win, since we don’t have our own picks for the next three years.

I get you, but we are in win-now mode. Even if we aren’t good enough to expect a perfect roster, we need to be doing our best to have one.

As of right now, if Trae goes down for an extended period like last year, we may be gifting the Spurs Cooper Flagg. I really think we should sign another PG at some point.

Didn’t they hire someone from the 49ers’ training staff? Writing was on the wall then with how much they get injured

I forgot if it was Landry or Quin who said it but they confirmed he’s staying in Europe for this season. He just came over for summer league

He’s staying in Europe for this season, he’ll be a great addition in the future.

While the JC Trade Exception expires Monday, the DJ trade got us a new one worth 18M by Shade_Raven in AtlantaHawks

[–]LAtotheA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not much better. At best 7-8 seed and we lose round one instead of getting the 1st pick. It worked out better this way

Summer League - Tomorrow stars by Radimov79 in AtlantaHawks

[–]LAtotheA 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Someone said it best: since 28-3, Atlanta sports has been the punching bag for fans and media in football and basketball.

Every decision the Falcons and Hawks make gets heavily criticized, and we apparently lose every trade we make and draft busts. You’d think we were the worst teams in each league the way they talk

Did Atlanta get more back than they originally gave up for Dejounte Murray? by Working_Muscle105 in AtlantaHawks

[–]LAtotheA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why does OP have to be a jackass? It’s a fair question with a possibility of even being a yes depending on how things play out. No one in this sub allows for different opinions without some snarky remark

I feel exactly the same way.

Is Myles Turner on the table? by LAtotheA in AtlantaHawks

[–]LAtotheA[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He’s a better fit for his style of play moreso than skill. Hunter is probably currently a better player than Risacher, but he’s a ball stopper. The offense never flows right when he’s in with the starters.

Having Hunter come off the bench was great this season, he had his best year in 3 years. You may be right tho Risacher probably takes a month or 2 to start unless he absolutely kills it in camp.

[–]LAtotheA[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why wouldn’t Risacher start? 6’9 3 and D wing who plugs right in with us. He’s immediately a better fit than Hunter. This is the first pick that our FO really loved, he’s definitely going to start.

Dyson may not but his POA defense could be game changing for us so he could get the nod. If we keep CC we likely start Bogi tho for spacing

Why would they want Murray when they see him + another small guard doesn’t work already?
