er9dverk Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 and it may not sit well with chris bosh. with that in mind, i think we should make a push for him. WHAT WE NEED Bosh Jack or Blake or Telfair or Brevin Knight A mid-first round pick WHAT WE CAN GIVE UP Tyronn Lue Al (SNT) Our lottery pick Salim Zaza (if necessary - dont want to) Royal J Edwards Sign bosh long term as a condition of the trade. The mid first rd pick we choose among Roy, Foye, Marcus Williams, Rondo. Criteria for choosing among the guards (for trade and draft pick): good defense ability to penetrate a zone (includes court awareness and passing skill to find open man when defense collapses) outside shot This would be a serious team. Once in place, we sit down with Big Ben. we offer him a few offensive touches - you got to throw these guys in the treches a fish every now and then. he would see the potential of this team, just might bite. billy would have to save enough space to re-sign the joshes and marvin when they come due.

exodus Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Bosh had a season ending injury awhile back, that is why Toronto is losing. I don't think they are purposely tanking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er9dverk Posted April 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 maybe not "intentionally." but he has said in the past he is not necessarily happy there. and their game looks pretty lame in his absence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lascar78 Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 actually he has said numerous times that he intends to stay. The money and lure of a better team may change his mind in the end, but as of right now he really sounds like a guy who's going to stay. There is no chance of us getting bosh, though I would jump at the opportunity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weez Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 pretty much the truth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB21 Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 That's true. Atlanta my just have to settle for getting a guy that compares to Chris Bosh in some aspects. That guy may be LaMarcus Aldridge. A front line of Bosh/Aldridge, Smith, and Williams would be a very, very potent front line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lascar78 Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 yup, I would love to get Aldridge here. He's probably got the most potential in the draft, AND he's one of the most NBA ready players, AND he fits our needs. ??/Lue JJ/Salim Marvin/Chill Smith/?? Aldridge/Zaza could be great for the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packfill Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 I think Aldridge would be a no-brainer if he were available when the Hawks pick. The problems arise if he is not available because there doesn't seem to be anyone else that so perfectly fits the needs of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packfill Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Quote: noah, if only he would declare He would certaintly fit the bill, but right now he says no so my statement above assumes he is not in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmooveTheFuture Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Theres no way on the planet that the Raptors trade us bosh without us giving up Smith or Williams in this deal not gonna happen. Bosh is only 21 years of age an all star already wishful thinking guys but it wont happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er9dverk Posted April 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 and im thinking chicago gets one of the top two picks, in which case aldridge is history. trading down becomes more tempting, as we probably should have done last year (bobcats). if we could buy two mid first round picks, i would like to get one of the guards and maybe try the cameroon kid sene with the 7'6" wingspan.

Packfill Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 If the Hawks trade down I think they should target Patrick O'Bryant (is that his name?), the center from Bradley who played well in the tournament - assuming he is even coming out.
