mg2005 Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Does anyone think Billups would be willing to play here? What about a sign and trade with Detroit where: Hawks get: Billups at $12M per year Pistons get: #3 pick Speedy Childress Lo Wright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gutz Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Yeah were giving up WAY too much there for 30+ yr old PG who seems to be on the decline. Much rather have Yi/Critt or Law or Conley over Billups anyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudderfudder77 Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 If the Hawks were read to win now, sure. But you guys are still too young to take on a PG on the downside of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mg2005 Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 If we picked up Billups, draft Noah at #11, and lose the Speedy contract, then we are a legit playoff contender in the East next year: Billups/Lue/AJ JJ/Salim Marvin/Free agent Smoove/Shelden/Solomon Zaza/Noah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much. We need to stay away from Billups. He is strting to decline right now and we sure as don't don't want to have to pay him 3 years from now.

The last thing you want to do is sign a guy to a big deal when he starts to decline let alone give up a piece as valuable as the #3 pick in the draft to do it.
