Not sure why the hate on here. When I call a player trash, it's 100% true.

I'd rather have the D-league contigent than Rondo.

Also, something tells me the Hawks aren't done. They have a decent roster so this move makes me think they are scrapping it entirely.

They saw Horford leave and received absolutely nothing in return for him, so they want to cash in on their assets now. This team is beginning their transition from playoff team to rebuilding from scratch. Millsap will be gone before the trade deadline, and I hope it is to one of the tougher West teams. It also wouldn't shock me to see Dwight go, but he has 3 years left on his deal, so no rush there.

sleeper;1831549 wrote:I can't blame them honestly. There are only two options; spend a F ton of money to build a roster to compete with Lebron James flanked by 2 all-stars and strong role players OR rip it apart and build for 2021 when hopefully LBJ is on his last legs. I don't see any available players that are going to swing the balance of the East and especially not after the Cavs dumped a liability into an asset.

I had a few buddies tell me they were a fraud, but I said the Hawks were a team that shouldn't be taken lightly. I was obviously way off. For now on I have a hard time trusting any team that doesn't have one super star for the playoffs.

sleeper;1831554 wrote:I remember that Hawks team had 3(4?) all-stars while the Cavs had only 1(LBJ). Absolute joke.

Dwight sucks, absolutely shit. I wouldn't want him for a 3rd round draft pick in the MLB draft. I'd rather have an extra bag of nice basketballs than Dwight.

I hope Millsap goes to the Thunder. I want the Thunder to play the Warriors in the playoffs because I think the Thunder can win with a little extra talent.

I would say the bigger reason they are making this move is because last offseason they watched Horford leave for nothing. They want to cash in on these two leaving before they lose them for nothing as well. Not saying they think they would beat the Cavs if they kept this team together. Obviously it's not a chance they were willing to take.
