I think that he already knows that he is gone and that the way he played last night is going to be how he plays for the rest of the year. With Lou's injury in the back of his mind he will play not to get hurt. So now he is going to hang around the perimeter a little more now.

have we not been paying attention to Jeff and Al's great play lately. Its been clear for a while that Horf is the best player on the team.

what the rest of the league thinks of Josh Smith. If he was so good like the Josh lovers claim we would have gotten better deals. We got offered garbage even from the bad teams. Max player my ass!!

but he misses 65% of those shots and his counterpart on the other team just collects the rebounds because Josh Smith is on the perimeter and not in the paint (where power forwards suppose to be). This creates more opportunities for his team. This is why he is always open his man in preparing to get the rebound. . Rinse and repeat.

Sekou seems to have more Hawks info now than when he was the beatwriter. I call BS and he always seems to go easy on Josh.

I am sorry but just how many championships have we won with Josh again? You Josh lovers act like he is some superstar that we can't win without. I would go as far to say that he is overpaid now. Like I stated in other posts no one wants Josh to build around him. He is no leader. The teams that want him want him as the 3rd or 4th option. We can't turn into a respectable franchise by maxing out 2nd and 3rd tier guys like Josh Smith. his athletic ability will be on the wan and we will be stuck paying this guy 23 million dollars down the line.

Jeff teague is starting to put it together consistently now. we need to keep hi. He is a better overall player than Jennings anyway. Jennings is better offensively.

Josh looks great beating up on lottery bound teams. No one ever said that he was a bad player but he isn't worth what he is asking for. We have him now and we are not going anywhere. We traded Marvin and we trade JJ. Now its time for Smoove to go. Players don't get better in their 2nd decade in the league. It hasn't happened and its never going to happen. Al is on a very reasonable contract and do you really believe that Smoove should be making 19 million a season averaging 16 ppgs a game. You go now where with him with as your centerpiece. Going into beastmode against the hapless magic and the bobcats every other week means nothing.

we played the Orlando Magic. No need to get all excited.

LOL!!!

got to careful with these Spurs players. Alot of them are bums that Popovich coaches up. What player has ever left that organization and shined somewhere else? That is a testament to how great of a coach Pops is.

How can a guy who never even made an allstar game possible receive a max contract? Some explain to me how the hell is that even possible. A guy who doesn't even average 20 ppg a game? I call bs on this "report". Every team that is rumored to be interested in him want him as the 3 or 4th option. No one wants him to build around him. He is a piece not a max player.

Josh always plays well against the bad teams.

strong dallas team. dude they are under .500. How strong is that LOL?

We need to collect as much talent as we possibly can. Brooks needs a little work but he can be very good. He can create his own shot.

we need to get this kid. i thought that we should have gotten him in the JJ deal as well. He is still relatively cheap and we need a two guard. If he doesn't pan out then we let him walk. We have nothing to lose. Isn't he from Atlanta?

I agree as well. He is getting slaughtered on the blogs. i wonder if Danny is finding out that the market for this guy isn't there.

What about Drummond and Monroe in Detroit. Either one of them would suffice. If we get Drummond we would probably have to take Stuckey.

Maybe he can give up 5-10 minutes off the bench when his back allows him to. I can hear it now..................in his 20th season from SW Christian Academy your starting center DwIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH HowAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!!! Give up Hawks fans!!!!!!!!!!. Here's a sample of the TV coverage. dominique: Dwight can get whatever he wants to tonight. Its amazing that after 3 back surgeries he can still give you 5 ppg and 5 rb a night. quality nimbers. Rathbun: He and Smoove combine for .89 blocks a night which is tops in the league for a tandem where both the center and pf were born in the same city. how about that Nique rathbun: Another bad shot by Josh Smith............screw its been 20 years Nique!! dominique: that was a heat check

Ship Be Sinking!!! ---- Famous quote of former New York Knickerbocker Michael Ray Richardson. Indicates an epic fail.

Yes let's pair him with Smoove and give them both 20 million+ plus a season.

Just pondering something. If Dwight comes here that still doesn't mean that Josh Smith is worth the max. I mean his numbers are his numbers. I think some of you are getting it twisted in thinking that he wants the max to stay here and you want to keep him in order to get Dwight. I don't believe that that frontcourt is worth 40+ millions dollars when you can't have either one in close game. You think Dwight will take a pay cut to play with his buddy?

He keeps saying that he doesn't know what is going on with the team and that he has to figure it out. I am like damn dude are you not the coach?

We got him now and are going nowhere. Why pay him more to continue to go no where. Over on realgm in there is a blog about who will get the next bad contract. Josh Smith's name is all over the place. I think that Ferry is seeing just what other teams think he is worth.

LOL!!!!!
