Nicholasp27 Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Smoove: Theo/SAR got us Sheed got us #17 pick got us Smoove This was a great trade sequence; who would trade smoove for theo/sar now? JJ: 1mil cash for Sjax contract for Al for 2007 indy pick JT for walker/delk for lal pick late 1st to draft diaw those 3 became JJ so JJ cost us a late first and JT and our great signing of sjax to a 1mil/year contract and swapping ours/indy's pick this year (which could be a GOOD thing if we finish above them!) This was a great trade sequence; Who would trade JJ for JT/late first/Sjax/swap back from indy's 2007 pick now? So our old team assets that BK had when he started the rebuilding 30 months ago was traded for JJ/Smoove We get Chill regardless since pre-post sar/theo trade had roughly same record, so Chill is either way We got Marvin from this rebuilding since we wouldn't have had #2 if we had kept sar/theo/jt So the JJ/Smoove/Marvin trio is pretty much what bk got for the assets he inherited Zaza/speedy/batman/lo were good signings that had nothing to do with our old assets Slim/Ivey were 2nd rounders we'd have either way (altho without the rebuilding, we wouldn't have gotten slim since he wouldn't have fallen to 40th pick) I, for one, would take JJ/Smoove/Marvin/Slim over Theo/SAR/JT/#40 last year any day of the week So I think BK has done a good job of upgrading our assets I also like the drafting of chill and the speedy/zaza/batman signings Lue/lo are just temporary jury is out on shelden Yes, we possibly could have done MORE without making the 'mistakes' that get harped on here all the time, like getting paul instead of marvin (jury still out there tho), not really getting anything for nazr, etc...but can u really say we haven't done a GOOD job of improving our assets in the past 30 months? I think if we can improve our assets and potential that much in the first 30 months of rebuilding, that we are doing a good job; nobody (other than kb) is saying we are doing a PERFECT job, but we are still doing a good job nonetheless and i think we shouldn't be so quick to call for BK's head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BK was Grizzlies' manager then and he did immense damage to the Hawks future with that trade! I must admit, everybody at HS were extremely excited about that trade then and it was like christmas at the chat room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Diesel Posted August 23, 2006 Premium Member Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 I'm sure that I can play the Hindsight game and show how trading Dominique got us JJ. Does that mean that the Dominique trade was good? NO. Gentleman, each trade stands alone and is indicative of what was going on with the franchise at that time. You can't compare getting JSmoove with getting Indy's pick. We were in a different place. We were rebuilding. When you're rebuilding picking up picks for talent is acceptable... However, things are different now. Now, our agenda should be to win... However, many people are still trying to rebuilding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsuteke Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 here is why I am so upset over the Indy trade. it's related to Diesel's last comment. by trading Al for a 1st rounder we have a squad that will probably win 32 to 35 games this year. if we had traded Al for let's say the LAL offer of Mihm/Mckie/Cook I think we could have won closer to 40 games. Mihm is a solid backup center and McKie could provide some veteran leadership. all that money would be off the books after next year so we'd be back to zero regardless. I'm thinking about winning in 2006-2007. I think some of us are resigned to being bad for one more year. that's it and I'm out. everyone enjoy their day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholasp27 Posted August 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 it's not BS it's a look at what BK has done in the 30 months he's been rebuilding us we have gone from that team to this team we used our assets then to get us the players i mentioned while we got zaza/speedy/chill/etc without those assets so he turned those assets into jj/smoove/marvin over a lower pick/slim over a lower pick/shelden over a lower pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholasp27 Posted August 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 if mihm won't take us to the playoffs, why are we letting him zap pt from our young bigs? what's the point ? how does it help us to CONTEND in the future? i don't care about +/- 5 games this year, unless we are talking playoffs vs non-playoffs...i care about our future contention possibilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're pointing out that we got screwed on the Pau for Reef trade, and I am reminding you that it is BK, who you think is incapable of making good trades, who made that trade for the grizz.

DJlaysitup Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Yeah AHF...a pick is better than nothing and it gives us an excuse to analyze the lottery next year - but I'd sure rather have our old pick back instead of Indy's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lascar78 Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Yeah definitely. I think our pick will be somewhere around 10-12 maybe, and theirs will be around 20 or so. Still a big tumble, but much better than no pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not a true replacement, and unlike many, I don't wish bad things for Indy so our pick is better...I just hope the Hawks will be able to find a diamond in the rough with it that will improve our team. It would have been a bummer to have no pick next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
