Didn't Demarre write a full page letter to the fans?

He should have tweeted that out first before doing the Celtic Pride one instead of waiting 4 days

I never seen him show any Hawks pride like he did in that Boston tweet. He just usually tweet out "Good home win".

Not to quibble, but that statement is clear as, uh, mud.  In fact, I'd say it was just the opposite.  The Hawks were willing (seemingly by all accounts) to trade away a better player in PM to accommodate Al after conceding to the five year deal that Al wanted.  They were short on the money in terms of annual salary but it was, what, $28.2 to $27.2 on average?  Had it been about the money Al would have taken the Hawks deal which would have paid him $23M MORE and given him more security (5th year).  I think the Hawks actions showed pretty clearly that he was wanted in Atlanta by Atlanta every bit as much (if not more) than the Celtics. 

Not to get too far off subject, but I'd argue that Alice actually saved the Hawks from doing something they'd later regret by giving him a 5-year deal AND trading away Paul. 

I'm surprised about nothing coming from Al's camp on whether or not he wanted to play alongside Millsap the next couple of years if he was to sign back.

Maybe he didn't care as long as he got the 5 year max.

Sounds like he was forced to write this by his wife and agent. Dude is the ultimate tool and I would love if the organization did something for the fans to embarrass him in his first game back at Phillips. I never understood the love everyone had for this faker throughout his years here. He was nothing short of a ego maniac that loved his self and image more than the team. You should read the story about how he bolted on his ex and married the chick he's with now. Funny how history repeats itself.

There's a story about that?

Yea, if only there was a website made specifically for athletes to write their own stories free from media misinterpretation.  I'd call it "The Players Daily" or how about "The Players Tribune"?  Yea, I like the sound of that last one better.

The Player's Tribune exists.

I think Al realized he and his family took whatever frustration they had with the FO out on the fans and is trying to rectify it.

But It's probably too late 

I just wonder what the actual frustration towards the front office. Signing Dwight over pursuing somebody like Noah? Not offering the full max at midnight Thursday?  No meetings with big name FAs to ATL this summer?

Anybody see what his sister is tweeting?

Offering over 120 million to someone is not showing disrespect. Thats a pretty big picture right there, Anna. 

[Guest]

All that means is "I should have been offered 5yrs/$153 million"

[hazer]

Lil'. Bitch. Alice. Whoreford. Anybody heard me say that before?

Anna, 

I appreciate the play your brother gave the Hawks fans. All the 13 point 7 rebound seasons he gave us (when he actually played). The elevated play when it matters most (playoffs). The tough interior play we would expect from a center. The ability to box out and get a rebound (Way to go Tristan). But most of all, I want to thank him for not hand cuffing my favorite team to a bs contract for a guy who didn't show up when it mattered most. If he doesn't want to handle it like a professional, then don't expect fans to treat him as such. Tfoh.

Just a guess but I think it was not  automatically giving him the Max like Memphis did Conley and Washington did Beal.

He looked at himself as the franchise player but the Hawks were trying to improve the overall team

If he thinks that he truly is a max player then he needs to prove when he faces us next season.

She's been trying to take the Ayesha Curry route for a minute (which is weird cause that's his sister) but Al's not big enough for people to care

I can't take the sister tweets seriously. She must not being watching the D-Wade situation, it's not like Al has brought us any championships.
