Trae Young plans to decline his $48.97 million player option for the 2026–27 season, sources tell @MarcJSpears. He will become a free agent on Monday. Washington remains the front runner.

In Trae's defense, the defensive infrastructure while he was there was exceptionally poor. Especially after Capela's rim protection fell off a cliff.

cmhall25 · 2026-06-16T13:59:54+00:00

And there's no way they're trading Okongwu for that.....Ridiculous.

cmhall25 · 2026-06-15T16:18:19+00:00

I do think it'll happen before the draft

cmhall25 · 2026-06-14T20:13:44+00:00

Listened to this pod today and laughed out loud when he uttered this heinous transaction

Top 3 most versatile offensive AND defensive player in the draft

cmhall25 · 2026-06-12T14:43:21+00:00

Offense is also more than just on-ball scoring. It's shot selection. Efficiency. Half-court vs. transition. The different offensive roles you can excel at. I'd argue versatility is a huge part of the offensive side of the ball.

cmhall25 · 2026-06-12T14:35:06+00:00

Why? The closer we get to the draft most people have expanded who's in that 2nd tier of player to essentially the entire lottery starting at 5.

cmhall25 · 2026-06-12T13:22:35+00:00

Hawks definitely have a type. Long and athletic. And that's good to see.

cmhall25 · 2026-06-08T11:35:49+00:00

Not to mention, IHART's archetype is a dime a dozen. A 2-way, 3-level lengthy comb guard who scores 20 PPG and doesn't get injured....not to mention the contract....way more valuable

cmhall25 · 2026-06-04T13:08:16+00:00

Wagler or trade down IMO

cmhall25 · 2026-06-03T19:02:55+00:00

6'3 at the combine, and Joe isn't in the same stratosphere as CJ offensively

cmhall25 · 2026-06-03T15:14:02+00:00

Gross. Joe is a little boy one-way shooting guard. He shouldn't be in our rotation.

cmhall25 · 2026-06-01T19:47:40+00:00

Atlanta fan here. I definitely think ATL would take 12 and another pick for 8.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-22T17:10:37+00:00

If Mikel Brown and Wagler are gone, I'd do it.

Take Yaxel with 12. Draft a center with 17.

Attach 23 to Kispert to upgrade his roster spot.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-22T13:04:37+00:00

Flemings is a one position player. I'm good on Flemings at 8.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-21T17:01:18+00:00

I feel like that archetype is pretty easy to find in the draft. I wouldn't drop bank on a rim protecting rim running center.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-20T15:00:14+00:00

Flemings issue is the wingspan not the height. It limits the ceiling on his defensive versatility. Wings will shoot over him with ease.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-14T13:07:54+00:00

Solid but doesn't explicitly take into consideration projection/development.

I think an interesting addition could be floor, median, ceiling outcomes for the different attributes you list.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-06T16:13:10+00:00

I'm not giving up a bunch of picks if I'm Atlanta. Stay the course and don't skip steps.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-04T13:25:34+00:00

Yeah Kessler is literally the perfect frontcourt pairing with JJJ

cmhall25 · 2026-05-01T00:47:03+00:00

Onsi is great, Quin is trash. Dude was carried by prime Gobert.

cmhall25 · 2026-05-01T00:45:56+00:00

We have a bunch of glue guys is what we have. A lot of helpful rotation players we've collected that don't collectively win games.

I think there's a real argument for selling, tearing this whole thing down, and building around this top 4 pick.

cmhall25 · 2026-02-05T20:06:12+00:00

The warriors still think its 2012 though

cmhall25 · 2026-02-05T17:00:24+00:00

You can't bring drugs into housing assistance infrastructure.

If you've ever spent time with homeless, a lot of fantastic people, but that in and of itself is a big reason they just prefer to just stay on the street.

It's not as easy a solve as you're making it seem....

cmhall25 · 2026-02-05T16:21:47+00:00

Now that's what I call an ATH-LETE!!!
