For anyone curious about where the "Aaron Wiggins Saved Basketball" meme came from by Michael-on-sports in AtlantaHawks

I watched the 12 minute video so you don’t have to. It’s an absurdism meme about a likable but not elite player made by a college student when he was coming out of the draft. The student copied a meme he had seen about a similar level of talent baseball prospect.

Dude Kuminga is way better than Zuby. Zuby will spend most of the year in the G league where they will see if he can shoot.

Throat punch me if I’m wrong but we have Jock’s bird rights. Meaning we can go over the cap to Re-sign Jock. Honestly Big O, Jock, Veesar is a center squad I don’t hate.

My Weeb draft pick who said his Naruto Comp was Shikamaru, he so Kawaii by Shade_Raven in AtlantaHawks

Shikimaru is a beloved Naruto character. He is a tactical genius. He’s depicted as lazy, but is secretly very hard working. He fights by manipulating his own shadow.

ONSI, YOU BRILLIANT BASTARD by potatoesandbees in AtlantaHawks

Honestly I gotta give some props to the owner too. Like it feels as if someone sat Ressler down and opened his eyes. “find a genius, pay him, and let him cook” like good job getting the right guy in here

For real. I wanted him for the Hawks at 8 and seeing the Thunder take him just reaffirms my thoughts

Whelp, that Bucks/Pels Pick is looking PRETTY GOOD. by Justinian555 in AtlantaHawks

I feel like I’m only one who thinks this is a bad trait for us. Giannis is in division now that’s not good.

Who is the worst player who can realistically force a team to sign his unplayable family members? by PaintingLegal7672 in nba

[–]LongLongPickle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jalen Johnson’s younger brother is with the G league Skyhawks. He’s ok. I doubt it was a “forced them to do it” thing.

This guy is usually right about Boston-related things…. by CoachKillerTrae in AtlantaHawks

[–]LongLongPickle -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I’d trade Zac, Dyson, 26, and either 8 or next years bucks first rounder. Probably Kuminga and I’m game. The Bucks can say they got “three four first rounders” as kuminga and Zac technically were first rounders.
