If this Hawks team loses tonight, I think they'll be 1.5 games behind us with a chance for us to put 2 games separation between us tomorrow in Milwaukee. With Chicago struggling with Butler out for an extended period and the Hawks looking to trade Teague and Horford, we might have some breathing room at the three spot for awhile, as long as we continue winning at a decent clip.
Speaking of that, should we pursue Horford? They're not wanting to pay him next year, so he shouldn't be all that expensive to obtain. In fact, he works perfectly for Amir. Would you do an Amir and the Dallas pick for Horford? We'd have to be ready to pay him in the summer, but he's a dang near perfect fit at the 5 for us. I don't see any other 5 that's better than him becoming available anytime soon, so even though he'll be 30, he might be worth it for us.
