Premium Member Jody23 Posted July 14, 2013 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) C-Viv says he'll have some comments from Al on playing center again this year. Hearing his take on this will be really interesting.I'm cool with seeing what Jenkins can do for us at SG with an expanded role.I agree. Jenkins could take a big step forward this year.

gurpilo Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Demarre Carroll can do that I guess. Anyway I would take a chance on James Johnson, he is a high upside guy and could be very valuable for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhillboy Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) I like Henderson. He's basically the same size as Jenkins but he can handle himself inside much better. They would make a nice combo to change up styles. I always liked Ronnie Brewer AKA Young Dro but he really stunk it up with the Knicks. If Eric Gordon happened somehow I'd do a tumbling routine complete with cartwheels and backflips, and hurt myself. I'm sure Ferry will get something done because we clearly don't have starter material at that position. I personally haven't enjoyed the SG position for the Hawks since the 90s, so I'm dying over here. Oladipo might be better than any we've ever had.

Hearing his take on this will be really interesting.I agree. Jenkins could take a big step forward this year.I have to be honest here....I haven't seen any indications that Jenkins is going to be our starting sg. Has ferry said this? I get he's going to have a bigger role but is he really going to start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrell Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Jenkins, Lou, Korver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrell Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 We are good at SG. What's worrying me is the SF position. We still don't have a big physical SF who can play some D. You will laugh but we could use Marvin :-)Agreed. Ronnie Brewer, Alan Anderson(sleeper), Marquis Daniels, Pietrus? Wilson Chandler available? Duck? Hell no!

benhillboy Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) It's some bad ass veteran shooting guards nowadays. Damn. Ray and Vince's heyday was 10 years ago and I'd still take them over some of these cats. I dig Hayward and Klay Thompson. I just want a guy who can get us 15-5-3 while holding a Kobe or Wade under their averages (otherwise known as Jimmy Butler). Is that too much to ask?

bigjmw84 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 We might see Korver more at the 3 allowing Jenkins and Lou to split time at the 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrNique Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 I would think are guard rotation is basically done. I agree with those that think what we need is a 3.We have:Teague - Schröder - Mack?Korver - Lou - JenkinsAnd:CarrollMillsap - ScottHorford - Muscala - (Noguera?)So I'd say SMALL FORWARD and BACKUP CENTER are definitely pieces we still need. And I'd guess Ivan might be brought back too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'd guess Ivan might be brought back too.I think Jenkins gets more time at the 2 with Lou, allowing KK to get more time at the 3. I think Carroll and KK get the majority of the SF minutes. It's possible we see Petro, Ivan and Tolliver back. I want Dalembert, but I think he chooses Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutombolievable Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I think Teague and Schröder will play at the same time often this year. Teague has played off the ball before and I think that he and Schröder in the game at the same time could be good for this team. I wouldn't count out the possibility of a Schröder/Teague starting backcourt sometime this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators macdaddy Posted July 15, 2013 Moderators Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I know Granger is a SF but i'd be more comfortable with Jenkins at the 2 if we had Granger at the 3. Let Korver and Lou come off the bench or start Korver at the 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has ferry said this? I get he's going to have a bigger role but is he really going to start?Seeing as how Lou as already been designated as the backup shooting guard, I'd say yeah, Jenkins is going to be the starter. You can tell from summer league that they're getting him ready for that role. It doesn't mean he'll get the most minutes, but he'll be the starter along with Jeff and Lou and Dennis will come off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholasp27 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Teague/Shredder/LouJenkins/Lou/KorverKorver/Carroll/MillsapMillsap/Al/?Al/?We need a backup big most of all...I'd bring back Ivan and try to get daly...muscala and Bebe can also join for development purposes but not likely many minutes for a bit Everyone but korver is young and could see big jumps in improvement so our future will be brighter the more of them that do improve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
