    in hindsight instagram baller is kind of mid.

    trading murray and getting a young 3&D prospect would be wildly popular on this site had it been proposed before the trade. Just be happy, we are wildly successful as it is.

    They've done well, but Johnson and Kennard are their secondary creators, which means the offense likely dies on the vine in non Young minutes.

    Great another We Love Trae thread. Atlanta has a top 4 roster in the East? They’re not going to be ahead of Cleveland, New York, Detroit or Orlando who beat them like a drum in the Play In. Those teams have been playing together for a few seasons already. Comparing Atlanta to Indiana as far as potential contenders doesn’t work because Indiana had already played together for a few seasons. So Atlanta is going to be around the same win total as Boston, Milwaukee (who should improve with Turner), Miami and Chicago. For all the celebration of Atlanta going 2-1 vs Cleveland, what about the Hawks losing 1-2 for the season to Washington? WITH Johnson so y’all can’t use that excuse y’all love to whine about. Oh yeahhh that doesn’t work with the I Love Trae committee. The Hawks can be the 5th seed just as easily as they can be the 8th seed and in the Play In. How far will Indiana drop? Who knows but at least they’ve had some seasons playing together. As much as y’all bring up Johnson being out what about Philadelphia? What if they’re at full strength with Embiid and George? They’re not better than Atlanta? Oh yeahhhh I forgot it’s only Atlanta and Trae that will reach their full potential and be injury free while the rest of the East will regress because…y’all will manifest it. It’s quite amusing.

    I actually think mid to late first round picks are going to have more value in the coming years. Drafts will be deeper as good college players who stayed for NIL $ will start aging out and entering the draft. Teams with numerous FRPs, even non-lottery, will be able to get good rookie scale replacement players to fill out their rosters.

    Gotta burn up the phone lines with them. Try to use SA26 w/ATL swap to pry away TM3, tell NO that they can use that leverage to get their own pick back from ATL.

    Western Conference picks should hold more value than Eastern Conference picks. 1 injury in the west can get you in the lottery, while in the East anybody can make the playoffs if they just tryin to win

    theyre also going to have some internal improvement. daniels should build on a breakout year. risacher started slow but came along strong in the second half of the year, should be better. jalen johnson missed more than half of last year.

    what if kobe bufkin becomes a nice bench scorer too?
    He already had his breakout year, and the only number that improved per 36 was steals.

    I wish I had the same hope in America as exstatic has for Atlanta 26 and 27 picks ending up in the lottery.

    he just turned 22 near the end of the season. he's not done getting better.

    and im aware he had a breakout year. thats why my post specifically mentioned his breakout year and building on it

    uhh, he also increased his scoring from 9.5 per 36 to 15. being able to scale up your per 36 production from a bit role to a starting role is a big deal. being able to do so while increasing your efficiency is particularly good

    They won’t have to be. My hope is in the Spurs. Atlanta will be nothing but mid, draft pick wise. I think we’ll be 20+, so the swap is a plus.

    Do you remember in the last few years top seeds Memphis and Sacramento? Everyone was like where the did they come from? That’s us next year.

    Can you please just stop with the Atlanta pick predictions? You have been nothing but wrong, not just wrong but horribly wrong, so just in stop please

    there's a good chance Giannis ends up on the Hawks if his agent gets the job there

    Damn if you forced me to pick between Milwaukee and Atlanta I don't know which I'd pick. They both suck.
