They'll cash in this offseason I'd have to think. They were holding off until they got their superstar and they got him finally, they'll start spending their money soon.


They're always holding out. When will they actually win games? Hasn't happened in like five years.

Because they were always holding out for a superstar. They got that in Harden right as the season started. They'll have max+ cap space this offseason, I think they'll go after a good 2nd/3rd wheel type guy.

Also, they've been under .500 once in the past like 10 seasons.

Not that its a great stat but his PER is currently 43.49, about 13 more than Lebron. Maybe he is MVP :lol:

Actually, maybe PER is the stat we should be paying more attention to.

Sanders is our best at 46th in NBA.

Monta is 121. Behind: Henson, Duns, BJ and Dally(!).

The real funny part is PER actually rewards volume chucking even at low %. Monta is doing a hell of a job to not have a better PER. :D

Devin Harris sprains ankle, I guess Atlanta's guard depth is paying off. Morrow still sidelined with hip/back problems (13 missed in a row). With Williams out for the season I think they're done but they don't really have contracts to dump unless they're looking to deal Horford(really doubtful at 12m/year)

My guess would be if you want something from Atlanta you would have to give them a young guy or picks.

Bummed for Lou Williams. Always sad to hear about an ACL.

I was going to toss his name in to the coaching candidates thread a while back, but didn't think he was that close to an actual head coaching job. My other thought at the time: Darvin Ham.

This got me to thinking, what current players would make the best coaches? I think Steve Nash is a no brainer, maybe Chris Paul, everyone respects him. Others?

Pau back in the starting lineup again. 17 points so far. But LA losing by 11 to Raptors in the 3rd.

Highly doubt they would be willing to give up Horford but if they would, I'd be willing to give up a lot to pair him with Larry.

I know trades aren't like nba 2k but you wonder if we could roll enough about there to make them think about Horford. I would. Monta, Henson, Tobias.

If they were looking to pair Dwight and JSmoove they might let him go, I'd be all over that too.

Of course Lakers lose to the Raptors today but had to get it all together against us.
