Honestly....I am really not concerned who plays point THIS YEAR...as long as they play D....I am more concerned with getting Gadzuric or somebody like him in here to rebound and play D....to me that is most important.

Just at a glance he seems like a fit...but whom ever we choose to play point must be able to play D.

Man...that is unreal! I think I read somewhere that he avg.three 3s a game.

From what I seen of Stoudamire ....he is stronger ....better at finishing....better defensively....probably a little better shooter.

But I have not seen much of him.

I would sign Gadzuric on the cheap...Swift...and Lue or Watson...play ball.

They act as if Tony Delk is a major cog in the Hawks future...sometimes I don't these guys know what to say.

Do you really believe that.....you can already see the improvement in Josh at the end of the year...his jumpshot got much better...I think he will develop just fine...but hey u may be right.

Next year no.......but we wouldn't win with Toine either next year....so who cares

Actually, a lot of development took place with Chill & Smoove last year...especially Smoove's jumpshot..... without a natural PG...although I am not against looking at a natural PG in free agency...I really don't think it is as important RIGHT NOW as people make it out to be...I really think we need defensive toughness and rebounding inside ..Like Dalembert...Gadzuric...Jerome James..I think that is much more important than a natural PG....actually I think we need to develop our young players more defensively ....I think the offense will come more naturally.

Exactly!

"does every thing good but nothing great that is the equilvalent of a role player in the NBA. "

He does this at 19...I guess he won't improve at all...not with his very strong work ethic.

I guess we will have to see if it works...if Jerry West had made these same picks of Chill, Smoove, Marvin, Salim, and traded somebody who was going to leave anyway for Al...it would be just another example of his genius.

"how you reach so much to get a player with marginal talent and attitude issues at a position you don't need."

NO the Hawks didn't.

We really don't need to spend a bunch of money in free agency unless we see somebody we REALLY want...since our kids still have to grow...no need to try and get into a win now mode.

Probably not ....but who cares.

Jack is not a great ball handler either.

The thing is we don't have to have and all playstation team...where every postion is an all star...if 2, 3, 4 are the core of your team and are good enough to carry you then PG and Center can be good role players...so BK's thinking is if Marvin and a Josh are futre all stars...then you don't need Magic & Shaq at PG and C.

Have you seen Ukic play?

Why is Marvin compared to Toine...there is really no similarities in their games.

What you mean fooled ....the fact he is not a traditonal center....that you are preaching about we must have...nor do they have a true point...

Detroit Has no respect for traditional postions either...they have a 6'7 center a combo guard at the point ...an undersized shooting guard...and a perimter playing 6'10 PF ...

I say we sign Jerome James & Stromile Swift then resign Lue or sign Antonio Daniels and play ball.

Man...u act as if we play tomorrow....there is free agency..good grief ....I hope nobody was expecting a championship next year.

That's the beauty about sports...we will see who knows what they are talking about in just a short while.....we should be hell in the summer league though!
