If Al wants to play with a ball hog munchkin, so be it. He screwed us out of the chance to add more pieces to the roster, so as far as I'm concerned, we should boo the crap out of him every time he sets foot in Atlanta. Thats the shortlist of how he hurt the Hawks. Im pretty sure Dwight wanted to play with him. Im pretty sure Sap is miffed about being dangled.

No doubt in my mind, sooner or later SAP, Horford, or D12 would have to go. No team can pay out 70 million a year to man their PF and Center positions. That makes zero business sense. Horford just got it done for us sooner and he did not let us choose who would go. Such is UFA. With D12 and SAP we will still have one of the best rebounding front lines in the NBA. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. Schröder has the keys and that is exactly what Bud chose. We have two rookie wing players and Bazemore; which is what Bud chose. Some people act like losing Al is the end of the world. He only averaged 15.2 and 7.3 last season and the season before 15.2 and 7.2. We are replacing him with a player who averaged 13.7 and 11.8 last season. The sky is far from falling in the Atl!

Howard at 22.4 Sap at 20 Baze at 16 Splitter at 8.3 Korver at 5.24 Thabo at 4 Scott at 3.33 Dennis at 2.7 THj at 2.3 Moose 1 Edy at 1 patterson .875 Bembry 1.2 Prince 1.9 Total - 90.245 (ish) Scott is going to get waived which clears up 3.33. This means we have 7 million to sign 1 player and the MLE to sign the 15th. If we salary dump Splitter, we'll have 16.5 million to sign a player. + the MLE and BAE. If we salary dump splitter and thabo we'd have 20 million to sign 1 player, + one on the MLE, one BAE and one vet min. Its all doable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeacKillsaDevil Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 Can Boston sign Durant and Horford outright? Or will they need to make some moves? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhillboy Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) Cool. I loved and appreciated the first 8 years of Bawse a great deal. Last year's Stretch Alfredo not so much. I'm gonna enjoy Sap driving past him every chance he gets. Old no lateral quickness having, pitty-pat screen setting, soft rebounding, more threes than FTs taking muthaf&@ka Enjoy your talks with Tommy Heinson. Still Love you though Bawse, even in Celtic Green. Mainly because I'm still confident they ain't making no noise.

Lets hope he is a true pro and ignores all the free agent banter. He should be use to it by now with all these years in the league. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUhawksfan Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I'm not mad he left I just don't think the Dwight move is as good now. Thought they could've really complemented each other well in the post. Even if we don't like Baze's contract, he took less than other offers to keep a good thing. The Hawks thought Horford would do the same and he didn't. Personally I would take a minor payout to stay with a team I knew would compete in the east. Unfortunately every last bit of that money was more important to Al. Oh well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Per http://www.spotrac.com/nba/boston-celtics/cap/, they have 78 million in active contracts and 21 million in cap holds. They'll need to clear 5.335 million of those holds to do this deal with Al. or opt not to pick up the contract of Amir Johnson. They'll have to do some juggling to get this deal with Al done, so no they can't just sign KD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plainview1981 Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 Even if the Hawks had cap space they still have Mr. Dipshit as the general manger. And that's a fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member QuantumHawkz Posted July 3, 2016 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) Oh well, keep it moving. All this is telling me is that Horford was hurt that the Hawks didn't make him the top priority. He probably thought at 12am on the dot the Hawks would call with a max contact in hand.....well,they didn't . The Hawks signed D12 and Baze. This was the plan the whole time. Everyone wants to talk about Bud's offense but think about this.... How many times did the Hawks hit a wall on offense cause the shot wasn't falling?, so they dumped the ball down low to Al.We all know how that often ended up. Many times if Horford 's shot wasn't falling he wan't going to be an impact on offense. We have the perfect stretch 4 in Millsap, and now we have a true center to fit. Besides the Pick and Roll will be more affective with Howard than Horford....why? Because D12 CAN finish at the rim. Horford was a pick and pop guy. With that said. Thank you Horford for your time and contributions to the Hawks. Edited July 3, 2016 by QuantumHawkz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
