Of course the ATL
We don't necessarily need afflalo for scoring. Being that he is undersized it won't help us on the boards as he is a career 3 rpg player.

I'm on the side of not making a trade unless it's perfect. Save for a Gordon hayward type of deal I don't want to deal Teague for spare parts. If ECF and beyond is your goal, Its going to take a player of that caliber or at the very least a Jae crowder

I'm not for us making a trade just to make a trade but are we cool with being a team that makes the playoffs and is cool being done in the first/second round again? And I'd take Afflalo for scoring, that's the main reason id bring him here b/c our backcourt has regressed

Say we make that deal. I don't think that pushes the needle past the 2nd round. To me it's lateral and does more harm to chemistry. Doesn't even benefit us going forward. I would honestly rather have Corey brewer for his rebounding and defense but I wouldn't trade an all star pg for him

I just heard Kamla talkin about it on 92.9 with Randy McMichael (who's awful BTW).

The contracts match (8 M's a year) and we finally get a legit SG. I'm tempted to do it, this team as currently constructed ain't gettin it done :francis:
We got SG all day. This is beyond stupid. I am done with the team if they do something stupid. Tim Hardaway was last straw

And it also takes minute to adjust to bud's system THJR has shown us that add the fact that so much of what we do has to do with our chemistry.

Exactly breh. Whatever player has to come from a similar system. Philly, gsw, or the jazz. Any player not from a similar system has to be a stud to play
