Premium Member Sothron Posted June 19, 2018 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 source: sports illustrated The Hawks have made Dennis Schröder "available for trades," according to Jeremy Woo of Sports Illustrated. Last month, Schröder made some controversial comments at a press conference. "I have to look individually what’s the best for me," Schröder said. "I will be 25 in September... I cannot be second to last in the Eastern Conference. That’s why I will have the talks with the Atlanta Hawks." The Hawks have two picks in the top-20 in the 2018 draft, so they may explore adding a young point guard to the roster. So...it sounds like Dennis is gone. Talked to my source and he's confirmed they are trying to move him. Feeling is Dennis will be gone before next season starts. This makes me even more scared we will waste a pick on Young.

NBASupes Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 He has been on the market for a long time. Atlanta isn't trading an asset to move him and no one wants to trade an asset for him. He likes Pierce, he apologized to the team and he's been a hard worker since coming back to Atlanta really working on his range. He might be the one player who will be on the roster come October outside of Bazemore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't want him and their not that interested in moving the 14th. They really want to move other assets. I was going to talk about this in the pod. San Antonio is the team open for business. Add Washington as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's really no substance to it. I could tweet that right now about 85% of the league and be juuuust right enough to not be laughed off the platform.

Premium Member Sothron Posted June 19, 2018 Author Premium Member Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 DEN doesn't have a real point guard. Murray is not really a point. Problem is Harris is a rock star SG and Will Barton is a great sixth man at SG/SF. Murry kinda has to play PG for them by default. They could absolutely use Dennis. They have to get rid of Faried at all costs to afford Barton and my boy Jokic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he will play at a high standard next year and raise his value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not pull a Sacramento level mistake and mess this up. I cannot even imaging how sad I'm going to be if we took Trae and 3, especially if Doncic is there. It would be monumentally disturbing. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecampster Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Last week I said that things would start to shake out around Thursday. This story is a leak story. Hawks put out that Schröder is available for trade and teams with PG needs then feel fan pressure to make a trade. This is all designed to drum up interest and bidding pressure for Dennis. Dennis is a known commodity and less of a risk than a draft pick. He is the type of player a top 15 team picks up to fill a hole or improve at a position. Cleveland is such a team as well as Miami, New Orleans, Denver, San Antonio, Milwaukee or teams desperate to take a step up....Orlando, Brooklyn, Detroit. Sorry...around Tuesday. Today is that day. Rumors will start flying and most of those rumors will be to drum up trade interest. Fan pressure is the number one way to push a team to make a trade they won't in secret.

thecampster Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 If I had to guess, I'd say they are trying to drum up interest in Cleveland, Memphis or Orlando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NekiEcko Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I been hearing the same thing, it is all up to what the Kings decide to do at 2 and if Magic passes on Young at 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
