Gray Mule Posted July 11 Report Share Posted July 11 Bey, the Former Hawk, has gone to Washington. He was our biggest bully when he played. On offense, he ran over and through people and didn't back up for anyone. We will sure miss that part of his game. Being out due to injury meant Atlanta couldn't keep him. Happy that he's found a new home. Sad to be homeless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy that he's found a new home. Sad to be homeless. Loved Bey. Our roster had flaws last season that he both contributed to and was also a victim of. Regardless he played tough and confident. When his shot was falling he was a huge plus. He did his best to cover us at PF. His defense was exposed on a roster that had size issues across the board. When speaking about defensive culture, he is not a tone setter, but around the right pieces you can have a Saddiq Bey on the floor and not be killed. We did not have those pieces last season. His injury was unfortunate. Sucks for him and his career. He would been paid significantly more if he accepted the money we offered him last offseason. That is the risk of sports. That’s why you can’t be mad a guys who chase the bag. Nothing lasts forever. I hate he is in Washington. For a division rival I barely ever think of them, but this offseason they have been too close to home on a lot of big personnel decisions for us and it’s becoming annoying. I hope he does well but I really want that franchise to suck. So, there’s that. It was good while it lasted. Best of luck, Saddiq! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators macdaddy Posted July 11 Moderators Report Share Posted July 11 Anyone got any more intel? Last i heard Hunter was on the block for a potential cheaper wing? Seems like we have to do something at center since we still want to bring Bruno back. Hopefully there's nothing brewing with Trae. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing on Hunter or anyone on this squad other than they aren't done. They are expected to engage again with Portland about Ayton during TC or preseason. They want to keep Bruno is the latest I've heard 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the New Orleans players we received can't be traded until like September 4th or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want to keep Bruno is the latest I've heard Maybe we are looking at two deals since we won’t know about an Ayton deal until after Bruno’s deadline. Hunter before August 1st and Capela after September (with Nance)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

September 6th for Danials, Nance and Liddell December 15th for Zeller since he was a SnT. @macdaddy 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He asked what was the hold up with Ayton deal so I was just explaining in relation to Ayton. Thanks for the more specific info though. :). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
