Sounds like a multi-year pursuit, definite grooming. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second-round pick exception[edit] The 2023 CBA created the second-round pick exception which allows teams to sign their second-round draft picks for up to four years without counting against the cap until July 31 of the player's first season.[26] Honestly, I doubt this pick ever affects the Hawks cap. I don't think he was drafted with that intention. We will see what Landry says Edited June 27 by theheroatl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dejay Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 Looking at this bunch right now and the old-school Wheel of Fortune giveaway (IYKYK) they might have over the summer, the Braves losing their MVP and best pitcher for the season while getting shut out by a team who might lose 110 games, and the Falcons attempting to try to be competent... Man, it sucks being a sports fan in this town sometimes. It really sucks... 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTB Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 (edited) Oh yeah…he’s so immature What ever you guys say comments from the blazers fan base is great (assuming they are blazer fans)…I’m back to wanting Ayton on this team badly. This is the move Landry…go get this kid! Edited June 28 by JTB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB21 Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 Ayton would be a terrible move. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby steps first! but I don’t see our FO being able to do this. that's what i'm saying. this is absolute best possible scenario, and it doesn't get us to contender status. being a 5 seed with no assets and thus no ability to improve the roster seems to be the ceiling within this 2-3 year window (trae's window). i highly doubt the front office's ability to put a contender around him before he asks out publicly, and i hope the realize this too. their priority should probably pivot to maximizing the return from the inevitable trade, but will it?? i personally expect them to march on into this directionless void until house is cleared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the move Landry…go get this kid! I don't understand. Ayton has multiple years of pretty bad attitude, body language, play, etc. He's been uncoachable at times, selfish, a bad teammate, and made weird life choices off the court. It seems he clearly plays basketball because he happens to be tall and good at it, not because he's out to win. I'm unclear what's been missed to the point where people still want him. If Hawk DNA is a thing, he does not fit it at all. There's a boatload of reasons the Suns gave up on him and POR drafted over him. It's not because he's too good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People never change. can I ask you a question? please watch below video at the 2 minute mark and let me know when the last time you saw one of our centers (Capela, OO, Bruno) do this to player of Jokic caliber ? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are likely done making any significant moves. this is just conversation. Not to worry… we aren’t getting Ingram or Ayton or anyone else of significance for that matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
