WraithSentinel Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Something needs to happen. Something that involves not messing with the core. If we do anything at the trade deadline. Expect another 2nd round pick for the other team 12th man. About the only thing you can expect from this team is nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like Chillz is "All in " as a Hawk. I agree with him and JJ. We shouldn't just stand around and do nothing. AJ had an interesting take. I like what he said about our record being the worst case scenerio. I think you have to think like champions!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumpyphish1 Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Good point, Diesel. I found it pretty interesting that Chillz wants to make a move considering most (myself included) think of him as the best guy we could use in a trade to add a significant piece. Maybe his is pretty confident he wouldnt be traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frosgrim Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I am not sure Childress is just talking about bringing in a player. He says that the organization needs to make a change to re-energize and focus the players. That sounds like a swipe at Woodson and/or BK to me. Childress is the consumate team player. I do agree that if we are going to trade a "core" piece, then Childress is most likely to go. I frankly don't see how the team can afford not to trade a core piece for a proven vet. Our spare/dog house players haven't been given the playing time to increase their value. The Hawks need an upper tier vet to come in and help. The Hawks' spare/dog house players aren't going to bring someone of that caliber in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I got the impression that Chill thought he could be one of the players to have a change of address. He's got to realize his trade value and the need to make a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packfill Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Yikes. Unless all those statements were taken completely out of context then they do evidence a general dissatisfaction the players have with management. Not surprising that the players see the same issues as the fans do. If only ASG, BK and Woody could get the message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly what stood out to me as well: Quote: "But when you see stagnation in your style of play or the way things are going, you have to look to see if you can add something or subtract something, whatever that may be, to get things rolling in the right direction. "And that means anything, maybe just something to change the locker room dynamic." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJlaysitup Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Really DrR...sounds like Chillz may be thinking getting traded wouldn't be all that bad of an outcome for himself. Actually, from a business standpoint, he would probably be much better off on a team that sees national TV every now and then. Here's my prediction: Chillz gets traded to a contender and then reveals that he has been working in secret the last couple years on a full-extension, high-release jump shot. He just didn't want to unviel it until he was confident in it. His new team then goes on to win the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the story line. He could even get rights to a movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could even get rights to a movie. Maybe we could package Chillz with Zaza, who would then drink a potion provided by his great grandmother back in the boonies of Soviet Georgia. Of course the potion would add 6 inches to his verticle leap and give him great defensive instincts and lateral quickness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachx Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I can sense that Watson and Wilkens may be coming to Atlanta for Chills & Lue.........Just a funny felling. No " inside sources." Chills is better then Wilkens but not by too much. Watson is 3X the PG Lue is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Walter Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 ...it would be criminal not to make a trade at this time. We aren't going to sign a FA of merit but a bold, creative trade could really help this team. While we could S & T Childress in the offseason, we could not include the valuable commodities of similarly expiring non-rookie contract FAs and does anyone truly believe what they don't see this front office already doing? The flaws of this team necessitate a deal, the expiring contracts necessitate a deal NOW! One before the trade deadline. It's another the reason the total absence of Gasol to Atlanta (or anyone to ATL) trade rumors this year is mind boggling. We HAVE to make a deal given our fatally flawed team. We HAVE to make a deal before the trade deadline, while we still have the expiring contract capitol, or else no substantial/worthy deal can or will be made.

coachx Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I could not agree more and alot of it is based on ownership giving BK the freedom to trade away expiring contracts for committed contract salaries. If the ownership ties BK hands with financial limitations we are screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJlaysitup Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 From Chillz's quote in the AJC: "when you see stagnation in your style of play or the way things are going, you have to look to see if you can add something or subtract something, whatever that may be, to get things rolling in the right direction. The "stagnation" word could get JC into Woody's doghouse. Somebody contact a carpenter, we may have to build on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mrhonline Posted February 12, 2008 Premium Member Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Childress is going to be on the NBPA executive committee one day. He's a smart cookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
