It's a lot easier with that guy. He might not with shit either but easier for sure.

I disagree because I think his attitude or work ethic issues will be an equalizer.

Expect some media tidbits about Cam to drop in the coming days.  Next 3 bad turnover game Cam has, expect the New York media to eat him alive. They aren't nearly as good at keeping secrets as the Atlanta media.

You think Trae attitude and work ethic for defense doesn't chop that claim

No.  He's shown a willingness, which is a step.  The other guy's been given the world whether he deserved it or not.  That's toxic.

I remember being like Hawks being the Hawks again. I think that era is back again. Some franchises are in the NBA to be Farm systems. Like the Kansas City Royals but even they occasionally win a title. 

That’s not true.  Virtually zero of our players have gone on to be stars after we traded them.  Our problem has been acquiring stars in the first place.

That's a valid point, but notwithstanding it's not like Dallas is lighting the world on fire atm. Have they won a playoff series since trading for Doncic? I think it's still completely up in the air who will be the better player and centerpiece. 

Who cares about the Luka trade. The question is how does the trade to the Knicks makes us better? Right now it's hard to see how.

For example this nugget:

Trading Cam means...  You can see my narrative above. 

Simmons is coming!

Clint, JC, Hunter, Trae, and Simmons. 

Automatically, our defense is 10 times better.   Trae plays off ball more and doesn't have to always be the one to jumpstart the offense.  Trae and Clint goes to the bench.. OO and Delon comes on and we're even better defensively.  Either JJ or Dieng would get some playing time.

Willingness is what you call it huh.

Oh I agree 100%. The luka trade happened, whoever got the better player is up for debate. but whatever.

This is a different trade, one that upon first impression reeks of poo.

Both trades suck for the Hawks.
