Better score 130 pts a night, because that collection of players isn't going to stop anybody.

I'm pretty sick with that trade. We get an extra lottery pick in a year where there most people think the talent past #1 is good but not great. We get a guy who wore down in college after 20 games, plays no defense and became a volume shooter by the end of the year. Young may end up being somewhere between JR Smith and Steph, but he also has very real total bust potential. Doncic is, at worst, a league average guard and at best a perennial all-star.

I just don't get it. Then we go out and draft another guy who can shoot but can't play a lick of defense. AND, to top it all off, we still have Dennis on the roster, totally destroying any leverage we might have had in trading him.

It's incredible how this organization went from the loveable, smart, crafty organization in the league/city 4 years ago to clearly the 4th of 4 in the city today.

Yeah I am seeing no reason to support the Hawks right now. Going to start following Atlanta Dream instead.

He put up some really good numbers last year. I think after a couple seasons in the NBA he will develop into a potential all star.
