5 Perspectives on what might (or might not) happen 

Post#1 » by HMFFL » Sat Dec 13, 2008 12:04 am

g. Hawks: Atlanta could dangle a pick and Mike Bibby's expiring contract.


I mentioned Bibby as a possible asset to be used for Nash.

"I'm not sure there's a market for Mike Bibby either,'' the GM said. "San Antonio, Boston, Cleveland -- they're not going for Mike Bibby. Who is going to say, We're going to win a championship if we get Mike Bibby?

"Phoenix might do something for Steve Nash, but I think it would have to be for something really good. At his age, it will be tough to get a terrific young player for him. I would think they would be more likely to try to trade Amaré Stoudemire than Steve Nash.''

This is the kind of interesting discussion that drives coverage of the NBA on the Internet. It is speculation, and when engaging in it I try to write it as such. But somewhere along the way speculation often becomes more important than fact.

Is there any chance that the Hawks grow a pair and make a deal this season? We definately need to in my opinion. LMK what yall think please im very curious on this topic!
Is it to much to ask for a team that plays hard and cares? Seems so.

Mike + 1st + Solomon Jones for Steve Nash and I might consider it, but I doubt it happens from a Phx perspective, only because we don't wanna mess up ALL our chemistry (what's left of it).

I would absolutely do that trade. The thought of Nash running the break with Big Al, Josh, and JJ gives me a huge Hawks-boner.

i'd love it but i don't see it happening, not just for Bibby at least. Maybe if we threw in Marv or something but at this point Nash is still better and worth more than Bibby.
