We don't need Jon Koncak again

[KB21]

A few players that I’d like to see the Hawks try to get an extra pick to take:

Ryan Dunn

Keshad Johnson

Jonathan Mogbo

Enrique Freeman

Jaylen Wells

[Gray Mule]

I've read about NBA trade already happening, but not involving the Hawks.  But they are out there!!

Feels so risky to go this route but I understand the fit.  We’re probably looking at how effective Lively has been in his rookie year.  I wonder if we trade OO in this scenario or if hes perma-backup.  Definitely not going to do anything for our spacing with Clingan/JJ sharing the court

You have to hope that Jalen takes another step forward as a shooter

I'd be absolutely terrified if they traded OO after Clingan. 

Well unless they got a cheaper OO in return/FA. 

I don't think it's fair to expect Clingan to play more than half a game. Plus I don't know if I want rookie Clingan to be the only option on stretch bigs. Are we just gonna get cooked in those games? Lol. 

I can certainly see how OO would want out now, but half of being okay with Clingan is knowing you have the "other" type of big already in OO to fill in the gaps.

I definitely would not.  And I'm still plugging in OO as my starter at the beginning of the season.

If we take Clingan you must keep OO.  How stupid would you have to be not to have a response to 5 out offenses when you already have one in house on a good contract?  This is Clingan’s obvious and most significant potential weak point from a scheme perspective.  OO is a perfect counter.  Must keep.

Landry messes this up and picks Clingan or Risacher he should be fired within a year and a half. This is a joke.

there was only one time in my life when I needed Jon Koncak. Agree we're well past that.

He could end up a very good player.  I’m going to be interested to see his career vs Holland’s.
