hawks make a run (with help from lac) 

Post#1 » by shagadelic45 » Fri Jan 30, 2009 2:33 am

ATL TRADES: Mike Bibby, Al Horford, Zaza Pachulia, Marvin Williams, Speedy Claxton, #1


LAC TRADES: Baron Davis, Marcus Camby, Zach Randolph, Ricky Davis, Brian Skinner


The Hawks roll out: Baron-Johnson-Smith-Randolph-Camby and make a run in the East.

The Clips now have a core of: Kaman-Horford-Williams--Thorton-Gordon-Jordan-Taylor to rebuild around.

The Hawks are 4th in the East...no way they turn over half the team mid-season, especially for the core of a team that is playing MUCH worse than they are. Too big to even approach reasonability.

Haha, I'm sorry but a Zach Randolph led team, will only make a run to 2 places.

1) Strip Club
2) Bottom of the leauge

Makes no sense for the Hawks. They trade 3 of their starters (RECORD: 26-19) and a 1st round pick for LAC's 3 starters (RECORD: 10-35).

Dumb.

ridiculous. Seriously... if you really think that the Hawks would do this you should step away from the keyboard so you don't do any more damage to yourself by posting these things

I could see some incarnation of Bibby for Baron going down at the deadline if the Hawks want to add a little more potency to their playoff run, but I can't see it being more then, say, Bibby and a lotto protected 1st for Baron. They definitely wouldn't include Horford or Marvin (let alone both).

Which team are you for (if either) if you say for the Hawks your crazy so are you a LAC fan or a random guy trying to making us go crazy over a trade that makes no sense at all?

Bibby is worth more than Baron.

Whats with all of the 20 player trades lately? I propose my Pacers franchise for the Blazers franchise.

yea it would be tough, but they aren't better than the 3 teams ahead of them right now (cle, orl, bos)...this puts them on par with the rest.

Baron>Bibby
Randolph>Horford
Camby>Pachulia & Williams
Ricky&Skinner>Speedy

should be a no brainer (minus the salary commits).......why does lac do it, then? they aren't contending like ATL.....

10 isn't 20. a 5 for 5 is more than plausible
