I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

Not as bad of a contract as I would have expected. Time to get Horford

My only concern is, can't the Hawks sign Horford still? And horford wants to play PF. He could do that in Atlanta.

So we didn't even get as far as the meeting? lol

Glad he didn't end up here tbh, nice player but not the difference maker for us

I think a new report came out today that he was taking phone calls with the other teams besides the Hawks.

Also, we have Jae and Isaiah as a part of the pitch tonight.

$23.5m per isn't bad at all.  That's disappointing.

Does the DH signing make it more or less likely that Horford signs here??

I am afraid it may lean him to the Hawks if they can afford.

I know we might have to, but do we have to offer Horford 4 years?

Then what do they do with Millsap?

They can't and they shouldn't with Dwight and Millsap aboard. They can't play all of them.
