Breh :banderas:

I guarantee you Bud is gonna keep Flail and all his antics on a short leash come playoff time. I think we'd be a much better playoff team with Thabo starting at SF and THJR & Flail getting the backup minutes. Am I wrong? :ohhh:

You're not.

Who knows but Bazemore team defense is weak as hell and he is small.

I'm not really sure where this "see we should've kept Teague" talk is coming from. Yea he's played well down the stretch and when he's focused he's a top 10 PG, but how many times has he looked disinterested and played without heart. For all the love y'all are giving him he's only been an All Star once. Yea I like Jeff and I like when he plays with heart, but this is a league full of PGs, if the right offer comes along he's not some "oh we can't trade him" type of guy
He's better than top 10. He's been boarding top 5 in the last 20 games. While Lillard has dropped in production and impact

Yeah man, is Dame hurt? Probably other teams are playing him different now than when he was beasting over a month ago. Teams have adjusted.

I REALLY hope he keeps it up. If you gonna lose, go out like a G, not complacent.
That's all I can ask for as a Atlanta sports fan..this legitimately could be it for the Al and teague core..and korver ain't getting younger..if we're clicking I could see a finals run this year (:birdman: @AVXL)

Naw, if you don't have a PG, you need one bad. You can't win in today's NBA without one
The type of player that the Hawks need is way more valuable than Jeff Teague IMO.

I think he'd have been gone already if this wasn't the case.

I am not sure about that. Wait till free agency and the draft.

IDK breh. If we gonna keep it real, if we see MIA in the first round this season is over. BOS could be tough and whoever gets home court would have the edge. Not nervous about CHA but I think that could be a series like how the Nets series was last yr where it probably goes 6 and every game is somewhat close.

@Qohelet Teague's current ranking wasn't really my point...the point is that he's capable of playing at a high level when he's focused. He's been focused and he's playing well, but he has to stay locked in for us to advance in the playoffs

Who makes sense in free agency?

Shooting Guards
Derozen - :patrice:

Center (Let Al walk)
Dwight - Homecoming !!!! :blessed:
:yeshrug:
Zaza - As a Backup
Festus Ezeli - Backup

Small Forward (Prob no need with Thabo)
Harrison Barnes - Golden State will probably match (they know they are going into the luxury tax so.... :manny: )
BazedGawd - Cheaper than Harrison will be
