MaceCase Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Sigh, name change coming up but I think I've narrowed down a replacement involving our new Hawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin24Williams Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Even though I've bashed Jamal a lot, i'm going to miss him if he decides to leave us. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachx Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) If Sund doesn't do anything we are toast. Its important to note that a GM does not choose to go over the luxury tax threshold. That is up to the owner and I think there are only 5 owners, out of 30 teams, curretly doing so. Atlanta is #7 in payroll for last season: http://hoopshype.com/salaries.htm I'd be shocked if he gets offered more then the MLE from a playoff team. He will be choosing between playing with a contender for the MLE or playing for a loser for a little over the MLE.

Admin capstone21 Posted June 27, 2011 Admin Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I am hoping if he is leaving that we can get some sort of compensation like a sign and trade or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I am hoping if he is leaving that we can get some sort of compensation like a sign and trade or something The only way that would most likely happen is if he's signing a contract for more than the MLE with a team over the cap. I wouldn't count on getting anything for him. So far we've let to allow any important member of our team go in a very long time so I have a feeling we might find a way to keep Jamal.

AHawks89 Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 I want Jamal to keep playing in Atlanta. Now that LD has seen Teague can play PG, there should be no need for him to play PG minutes. That being said, Jamal coming off the bench at the 2 spot would be wonderful. If he leaves us, I just don't want him to go to Miami, or can he? Please stay!

DeacKillsaDevil Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 You're really getting upset about Jamal before the new CBA is in place? Has anyone resigned their own FA's at this point (other than those on rookie contracts ala Teague)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) There were a lot of favorite Jamal moments, the 50 foot buzzer beating jumpers, the too many four point plays to mention, but two stand out. One was Jamal's five point play - he got fouled shooting a 3, made it and the defender was so ticked he got a technical foul and Jamal hit that one aswell. The other was that buzzer beater game winner against the Suns. He will be missed. Edited June 27, 2011 by Randy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNorthCydeRises Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Jamal exceeded my expectations. Like Flip Murray, he filled that need as the instant offense scorer. When Jamal was on, it was a beautiful thing to see. Having said that, it was pretty obvious that he and Teague in the backcourt together didn't mix. As long as Jamal dominates the ball, Teague will not reach his potential. Jamal gave us a good 2 years. But it's time to move on. Thanks Jamal. And the best Jamal moment was probably the 3 he hit in the Phoenix game last year to win it. I was at Game 3 this year vs Orlando, and the 3 he made to seal that game is arguably one of the biggest shots in Atlanta playoff history. My vote still goes to the Phoenix 3 to win though.

Admin capstone21 Posted June 28, 2011 Admin Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I think JC brought a lot of good things but if he leaves it might not be a bad thing I really like the idea of a 3 guard rotation of Joe, Teague and Kirk. We suddenly don't have to worry about defense in the backcourt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We suddenly don't have to worry about defense in the backcourt. Agree about the rotation. I want him to stay for the right price butr time will tell. It the team is sold thats a whole new ballfgame.

ATLFORLIFE Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I'm going to miss the 4 point plays, and those shake n' bake crossovers he would pull on the guy defending him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLFORLIFE Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 ...but not the matador defense Ha, i will definently not miss that. You never know, He may sign with the Bulls and Thibedeou might make him a better defender. You never know. D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimp Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Sad It doesn't take much to turn a 44 - 38 team , into a losing Team. If we lose Jamal for nothing , and trade Josh for junk, we could find that out the hard way. Its hard to believe the Marvin has a better chance a being a Hawk next season than Jamal or Josh.
