Idiot, we are asset driven, Dennis is fukking up the assets we can get for him which makes him someone we just won't move. When you open your mouth and say stupid shyt. You just end up stuck.

Why the name calling? Seems a bit uncalled for, ya think?

Teague was expiring and Indianapolis was his hometown.

Schroder got years left on that deal. Good luck.

I posted a scenario in random thoughts. Would you do this?

Schroder +19 + 30 for Young + 23 + 50 is the best they can do.

that or Jefferson /Poythress instead of Young and then the Hawks can just cut Al and Poythress immediately with no cap issues.

Hellllllll No :wtf:

The 19 and 30 picks are more valuable than just dumping Dennis in that trade. fukk it I would just let that nikka sit on the bench

Of course the ATL
He still average 18 and 6 the last 2 years and he's only 24. There value there, I know we're butt hurt about what he said.

We can trade him to Philly for the 10th pick and Jared Bayless. They'll get a guard who can penetrate to the basket and they can put Simmons at the 4 at times. That's what they were doing this playoffs when they inserted McConnell to the starting lineup we'll take Bayless contract off their hands to give them cap flexibitly. We benefit by getting the 10th pick and that will have us with 3 picks in the top 20.

None of that is happening. Schroeder as I mentioned is a streaky shooter with high usage who is poor defensively. He also has off the court baggage. Why would a team give up a lottery pick for him?

BTW, I still don't know what he said, so I'm talking about his overall play. He's a mediocre PG, if we can upgrade then we need to

No. As much as I dislike Schroeder I'm not for getting rid of him simply for the sake of getting rid of him. We need decent caliber starting players and even though he is a mediocre to sub par PG if we're not acquiring a better player or a high level draft pick then he can stay. He has a reasonable contract and we're not winning anyway so we'll see what happens

I agree with you on Dennis. He was only promising with Horford on the court. Otherwise, straight ass cheeks in terms of consistency. He would have great games mixed with terrible ones. Non NBA level players like Delaney was more efficent and more effective and we had far more success with Prince and Bazemore being the lead guards than Dennis.

Dennis is a good player for the right team. That's not us but we aren't in the position to trade him right now. He needs to improve and take care of his legal issues but if a team offers a quality 1st in 2019. I will trade him.

tremont is trolling if he thinks a rebuilding squad will trade an asset to get rid of anyone. He's trolling. @tremonthustler1, you been the homie for years but let's be clear, you know we ain't trading an asset for anyone on our roster. In fact, he's not even on the most wanted that needs to be traded list. That's Plumlee.

I am just happy we got Baze to produce at a level I haven't seen him produce at last year. I had lost all hope for him and last year after December, he balled.

WOAT definitely played his best ball last year...id love to trade him since his value is at its peak but if he returns I'm ok with it (I NEVER thought I'd say that :mjlol:)

I was shocked, I thought his dumbass would never figure out he's just a role player. It was amazing to see him come to a realization that he ain't all that good. That he is just a solid role player who needs to play his role AT ALL TIMES!

That said, I would trade him for a bad contract like Evan Turner and their 1st this year and use that 1st(24th pick) to send to Denver for the 14th pick and Faried. We can then use 14th and 19th to move up and take Sexton, Mikal Bridges or Young.
