The Hawks aren't making the playoffs. They have no cap space now. I hope Horford tears his ACL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a money grubbing bastard. He didn't play hard last season so that he wouldn't get hurt and he went for the bucks. 3 minutes ago, NBASupes said: Outside of the podcast, I think will take a nice long vacation from the NBA. Congrats to Al. Hopes he enjoys Boston. There is a reason Ainge has a ring. There's levels to this shit. I hope he has a career ending injury.

Premium Member sturt Posted July 2, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Have to say.... I was not real excited about that 5th year. Sounds like sour grapes, and maybe it is, but I just felt Budcox was already extending the payroll quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWF Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 We might as well trade Sap too. Told you guys we should have went the draft way. Hopefully Schröder and Dwight can be stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWF Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Should have rebuilt. Should have traded Horford and Sap. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 I think we should trade Sap too. But try and get a lot in return. Damn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member sturt Posted July 2, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Not sure how to come to any other conclusion than that Horf didn't want to be here after all.... we did offer more money and more years overall. I can't fault Budcox on this one. At all. Next move? Someone made the point that DH has flourished best in his career when he's had a viable PF beside him.... and that he's never had a better PF beside him than what Sap will be. But I'm wondering what other smaller move we can make now to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomFan Posted July 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Look, I understand us lowballing him to some degree. The Spurs have survived on convincing their star players to take a little less money in order to put together a championship roster. So on one hand I can't really be mad at Bud for trying to do that too. But on the other hand, Al was a Hawks staple and a respected guy here. If you weren't sure he wasn't going to feel disrespected by your offer, you shouldn't have tried to lowball him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member sturt Posted July 3, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I'd always assumed we were offering at least the max for 4 years that anyone else could offer PLUS the 3% bigger raises. If I'm wrong on that, then "low-balling" might be accurate, but I'm not inclined to think that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that prick Budenholzer will have the balls to even say anything. No more silent BS. He should step down. He is worse than Rick Sund or Billy Knight.
