hazer Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 3rd string Cap'n Kirk, THJr, Blaze, Moose, Edy is the deepest bench I can think of too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can live with getting Muscala out of the rotation too. I'm fine with cutting him to make room for JJ, and throwing Edy into the 2nd string fire... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think its misguided though to bring him in without also trying to address the back up center position. We have 1 open roster spot and have watched the most serviceable bigs get scooped up. I'm just a little bit cynical when it comes to our franchise making any additions at this point let alone any addition that would actually help us improve. I don't think you get Budball. Budball rule number 4080... Shooters are better than rebounders. You line up Horf, JJ, Sap, Korver, and Dennis/Teague on the 3 point line, Somebody gots to hit something.

I think this is probably the least thing unless GS comes calling. Joe is not going to make Cleveland or OKC a championship team. Not as long as the Warriors are still playing. What Joe would do is sign with a team that has no fight for PT at the position he wants to play and enough say to resign next year. That's us. The only thing that would take him to Cleveland is his friendship with Lebron. But why go to Cleveland and be a seldom used Richard Jefferson II... when you can come back to Atlanta and be something like the man. Which of those moves will get you a deal next year? Moreover, Joe has to know that coming here may mean winning a ECF! I'll say it... With JJ, we can beat the Cavs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Anyone really believe he or anyone worth a damn are coming here? JJ may be the best chance of signing a name as we can get but I'm still highly skeptical. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With our lack of a SF and the need for Depth, it would make sense for us to make a play for Joe and give him a test drive to see what he can do in Budball. I think he's a good fit for this system as long as he's part of the ball movement. When has Joe ever been a part of "ball movement"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe averaged 5 assists when he was on our team. Not wonderful, but certainly not bad for a SG. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the bigs will mean that much if our shooting is effective. Cleveland has forgotten about their bigs anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix... he was our leading Assister when he was here. Point is that we called him Iso Joe because Woody made him the focal point of the offense especially at the end of games. However, he was so much of a passer at Phoenix in an offense similar to what we run that people marked him as a possible PG. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member hawkman Posted February 26, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 The fans booed JJ mercilessly whenever he came back here for reasons unknown. It would be hard to not take that personal. I'd be REALLY surprised if he came back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the biggest obstacle would be coming back to a place where he was the A-1, all-star, leader and probably got the star treatment organizationally. But now he'd just be one of the guys. He's be below Teague in the pecking order now which, for him, would probably be weird. That'd have to be a humbling experience to walk back into. Al and Teague would have to spearhead an effort to get him since they're basically the only ones that were here back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
