Plainview1981 Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 He was awesome the first few years and he has played better since being moved to the bench, but his best days are clearly behind him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomFan Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Kyle will always be a Hawk to me. It's clear age is catching up to him, but he always did things the right way on and off the court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post hazer Posted January 6, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Thank you 3zus, what a great Hawk. My 12 year old daughter is tearing up. Not joking. Get that ring, then see ya back on the Hawks bench as an assistant. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spursfanpeacemaker Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Wish Kyle Korver for the best! He was crazy during Hawks 19 winning streak! Definitely one of the best shooters in the NBA. Unfortunately, Hawks are going into new direction. Good luck Threezus.

Meaning some of the people the hawks are targeting could possibly get traded for butler. So make the trade now before they are gone. I read it the same but don't get the logic. If there is something better being offered, teams hold out on you. You are better off being the last impact guy getting traded so any team that wants to make a playoff push has to bid him up. Hard to see there being more All-Stars getting traded than there are teams that are interested so that you better move while he window is open. You want to extract premium value if you are trading weeks before the trade deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNorthCydeRises Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Props to Kyle for what he brought to this team. I thought people overvalued it at times, because we needed him to be a little more productive at times. But when his shot was on, it was a joy to watch. He's one of the best transition open 3 point shooters I've ever seen. Maybe THE best. He'll fit in well in Cleveland, who needed a shooter with JR Smith on the sidelines for another month or two. Just remember to miss those easy open 3s, when we face you guys in the EC Finals. Don't be the guy that beats us with dagger 3s. Thank you for your service to this team, sir.

benhillboy Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Can't say enough about the guy. We could be here all day highlighting eye-popping advanced numbers from his heyday here. I need to screenshot and blow up a poster of him sitting atop the True Shooting ladder above Durant, Curry, and LeBron, for two years mind you. One of my favorite Hawks easily. Unfortunately there were two versions: B.D. and A.D. (before and after Delly, respectively. Before, he had to be doubled off the ball most of the game because he set the standard for off-ball movement. Afterward, he lost a step (maybe two) and all of a sudden he didn't. Pair that with teams never having to double Paul, Al, Jeff, or Dennis and he became very expendable. Whether he plays or not, LeBron's gonna fall in love with him strictly off basketball IQ. Everyone on that team is going to run off the ball, strip, shoot threes, and get sneaky blocks a little better. I scratched my head when they acquired Dunleavy. Kyle is a much better shooter and off-ball player. But I saw Jimmy Butler's name a few times in this thread Y'all know how I feel about that dude. Sell whatever you need to pair him with Dennis in the backcourt. Edited January 6, 2017 by benhillboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Hawks know several AS players might be traded around the deadline...why wait until then to only get scraps? Best to strike first and get the best assets out there that teams are willing to trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DS17Fanboy Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 He whas doing great of the bench and is the epitome of a great streaky bench shooter for a contender. They better package that pick up to get an upgrade on the wing and not trade Millsap. As a european and mavs fan Im not build for this years of avoiding winning. Also poor Dwight and Dennis. Dickmove. Good luck Kyle and thx for what you did. Already missing you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
