Not to mention we'd be at the cap as I outlined in my post, which means we couldn't take back more on a bad deal beyond those deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggp Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Giving Memphis massive cap relief AND the #7 pick in this draft is a lot. There can not be many offers for the #4 pick that involves cap relief to the tune of $25M/year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if every team wants the guy. All the good teams love the guy. Why not just take the guy? Don't get enamored with all the shiny things. At the end of the day, we need 'the guy'. 46 minutes ago, kg01 said: It doesn't work that way when you're looking for 'the guy'. If Doncic is the alpha we need, it don't matter how many betas we draft at 5, 6, 10 or wherever we end up. I don't know how many times this needs to be said. GET YOUR GUY FIRST. Worry about extra assets later. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurpilo Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Bamba is top 5, no way he is available at 7. Dennis, Baze, 19 and 30 do Carter or Porter is too much in my opinion, outside top 5 talent goes down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggp Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Perhaps I am expecting too much, but I think that Schlenk has enough bargaining chips to finish the night with Bamba, Doncic and Young on the roster......along with Collins and Prince. If he does that, then he will have earned the respect of every Atlantan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NekiEcko Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Yep, I don't think we are that dumb FO to do that when you have a potential Franchise Cornerstone and trade it for peanuts, then what about Dennis. I will want GM head on a platter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But right now, perception is truth. Right now, trading Doncic for Young, a player widely believed to be more flawed, would damage the trust of Hawks fans. Regardless of who is kept, the Hawks will lose a lot of games the next two seasons. The bitterness of losing will be compounded every night, as Luca is featured on ESPN highlights. It would be a foolish move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both their styles of play would significantly impact and offense. Both players are flawed, if Doncic was THAT much better then the Suns and Kings would be getting a lot more fire for not wanting him at this point. He's not LeBron James, I'm not heartbroken over having one offensively incredible player with defensive questions over the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is that this draft is perfectly set up for the Hawks to make several moves that would culminate in a roster featuring: Collins, Prince, Bamba, Doncic and Young. The deals are there to be made. Drafting Doncic and then lazily trading him for Young and other assets that stand questionable chances of panning out, is a big gaff. The Hawks should finish tonight with the above mentioned starting roster. The team would surely suffer through at least one dismal season, but in two years could be the fastest rising team in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
