Premium Member Diesel Posted December 17, 2015 Premium Member Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Horford represents a logistical problem for the Hawks. Do you take Horford to the offseason where he will demand and maybe command more money than he seems to be worth right now? I'm sorry, I don't want to pay Horford for his underpaidness over the last 4 years. I would rather pay him for what he could do for us in the future. Unfortunately, his showing this year is showing us that he's already on the downside of his career. So instead of putting ourselves in a position where we must resign Horford in order to recoup anything (hello Marvin), I would rather just trade him before the deadline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas Al has more of an offensive game. Deke's defense and Rebounding outshawdows everything that Al has done as a Hawk. He owned the freaking paint. IN fact, If I can get that Deke in replacement of the Al we have, I guarantee that we'd be in the finals this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deke was never that. He was what he was. A center version of Ibaka without the range and the athletic ability but with size and height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Popular Post AHF Posted December 17, 2015 Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Don't argue Al with NBASupes. He thinks Al is the great PF in NBA history (better than Karl Malone among others). Of course he is going to think Al is a ton better than Deke. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping that Tavares might become a Deke like player, but that is likely just wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's time for an intervention, man. I hate seeing you like this. You get a fever every time you see a jab-step- jab-step- jab-step- jab-step-mechanical-post move(sic)-pivot into a fall-a-way. Man Al's a nice player but he's just not nearly as good as you think he is. Sorry to be the (100th) one to tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Horford's getting a little overrated. Nice player. But outside of pnr and pnp, doesn't have much offensively. Defensively solid, but not a great defensive player. A conscious effort needs to be given to get him the ball in his mid-range spots, and not the three point line.

NBASupes has said in the past that Horford is as good or better than Karl Malone or STTE. He really needs help. Friends, send your monetary donations to www.kg01'shouse.org. on a serious note, you make a good point w.r.t. al's limited offensive game and i think it's part of our issue this season. In the pnp/pnr game, Al will no longer roll. It's all pop which kills Teague/Dennis getting to the rim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This better not be the "African royalty" scam all over again. -_- But seriously, Al can't be one of the best bigs in the NBA if Sap is playing at a level that Al never has and that's no knock on Sap.

I've come to the realization that Horf is what he is at this point. He's a good(not great) player and a great locker room guy. But is that really worth a max contract? The softness during the ECF and this season is a HUGE let down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
