I have a Blair Rasmussen jersey signed by Ken Norman. Super rare.

Defend? Rebound?Either of those would be a good start.

Yep. They are known as the financial capital of the world.

Apologies to China?

I think I heard Nique (or Bob) say that one of the players/coaches talked to him about his tendency to take a jab-step or fake before shooting, and just shoot it if he's open. That seems to have helped. This was about a week ago.

Antić is a nice option to have off the bench. Heck, he could even draw bigs away from the pint when playing with Horf and Sap.

Nobody ever was able to draw Vin Baker away from the pint.

Spoilers have a one week time constraint. After that, you might as well forget the internet exists.

Watching Millsap get brutalized every night and not get calls will do that.

(Man that front court is damn beast with milsap,horford,asik)

Joe Dumars thinking.

His injury had nothing to do with his position. This thread is Jessie Ventura levels of stupid.

Agreed. I think Milsap loves it here. We don't really ask him to play outside of his skill-set. We don't treat him like Al.

People act like the Hawks are treating Al in some abusive way. He may prefer another way but the guy is not complaining and has been a fantastic player where he is.

I can't believe so many people on here have mentioned trading Millsap. He is one of the better power forwards in the NBA (easily one of the most underrated), he'll never be a distraction, he has a team friendly contract, and he fits well with our style of play. If anything I'd be looking to extend him next year.

And he looks like he genuinely loves playing for the Hawks.I think we will extend Millsap. He's a hell of a player and this new Horford injury may seal the deal on that.

Really? Carr couldn't have been more elated to see Horford hurt.

I'll watch it again when I am not at a red light, but I respectfully disagree.

Check the history, some of us were critical of Ferry all Fall. It just takes Horf going down for some of you to see why we were so critical.

I don't get it. Because you don't agree with the moves in a transition year doesn't make your analysis any more complete.

I don't really see it. I get his point that it is usually Anderson that gets hurt since it happens every year. I don't see "delight" though.

The biggest fail is trying to evaluate a loss of a player when the team hasn't even played a game yet.

Perhaps they could have won that game if that piece of shit Carroll hadn't fouled Allen.

No contact.

Duffman, Abattoir has a drink with a bacon swizzle stick. Let that marinate for a bit.

I do love the idea. There is a bar near me that does a lumberjack shot with a piece of bacon in it. Tastes like breakfast!

Joe Johnson spends more time dribbling than an infant with overactive saliva glands. No thanks!

Keep in mind I am assuming he buys into the system. I think he'd be a great piece to have in that case.

Chances: Not good, I know.

Childress was never looked at by the actual Spurs and is currently unemployed. Even the Pelicans couldn't find a use for him.

Joe Johnson would be cool. The guy would be constantly getting some nice open jumpers and drives to the hole.

I've taken my girl to the Taco Mac there (CNN Center) about a zillion times. 100+ taps? That's romance, fellas.

Where do you come up with this stuff?

Quit with the lies about Marvin. OK, Lies is the wrong word.. but Marvin would have done no better. Marvin is in the Utah System... under Corbin. That system thrives on PNR ball to a much higher degree than we do it. Yet Marvin has not broke out yet. Let's understand the truth... Marvin lacked aggressiveness as a scorer and he bitched about being benched (also). He would not have thrived under Bud.. Bud would have rightly sent him to the d-League.

Well then he sure as hell wasn't putting up with "mid range shawty".

That's not true. I think all of them were capable of moving without the ball.

I Think the problem at the time was simple, there was no discipline for Smoove. When you hire a coach and give him a short leash and he's one of the lowest paid coaches in the game, it's hard to expect that he will manage players the way they need managing. Smoove needed benching. Cheeks has done a wonderful job of coaching Smoove. Smoove understands one thing in Detroit... It's not his team. He can be benched at any time. Therefore, you see Smoove not settling for the dumb shot as much. When you got LD and Woody on these unstable contracts, winning is what they had to do and that means keeping Smoove on the floor.

Here's my question...

Would Coach bud had shipped Marvin to the d-League?

Would Coach Bud have demanded a PG?

Not settling for dumb shots? This is ignorance on a level I can't even fathom.

It is a suspension of the contract so he can get his knees looked at. The contract is not cancelled and he cannot join the Hawks.

Dominique is not that kind of person to handle that role. I would bet good money he would tell you the same thing.
