Kristaps Porzingis out for the rest of the month?

[HMFFL]

I was in Boston the last two days and the Celtic fans I spoke with (Over 20) believe they'll compete and not tank.

All of them think losing KP will be an issue.

We also discussed the TD Garden and several of the people I spoke with said they expect the new ownership to eventually build a new arena. Some undecided and nobody said no. These individuals work at the arena and the IATSE union.

Latvian center Kristaps Porzingis, now the centerpiece of the Hawks, spoke to the media about Latvia’s upcoming clashes against Turkey and Serbia. In particular, he highlighted Alperen Sengun and Nikola Jokic as key challenges while stressing the importance of these early games in the group stage.

“Jokic… This guy is probably No. 1 in the world. This is my opinion. It’s going to be a tough, tough challenge for us. We still have Turkey and Estonia first, and then Serbia. We have a little bit of time. We aren’t focused on Serbia yet, but we’re going to have our hands full,” Porzingis said when asked about facing Jokic and Serbia.

KP is definitely in full effect for a career year in a contract season.

We'll benefit for a year, but I suspect he'll price himself out of Atlanta moving forward.

Porziņģis says no plans for a contract extension, but he’s happy with Hawks

ATLANTA — No extension between Kristaps Porziņģis and the Atlanta Hawks is imminent — and it’s possible one won’t occur at all.

“I know that’s an option. I wanna see how the year goes,” Porziņģis said in a recent conversation with The Athletic. “I wanna show that I’m playing at a high level again, that I’m healthy, that I’m everything, and then that kind of stuff will take care of itself, you know? We’ll see.”


“I don’t wanna rush anything and say this or that, but I wanna take it one day at a time,” he said.

After all these years we finally have an actual big man like KP and some of view him as a rental?

Kristaps Porziņģis fills just about every need we have at the 5. You guys are so use to undersized big men on our roster that you must enjoy losing. Is OO your answer at the 5 next season?

Some of you already think little man Onyeka Okongwu is going to be or should be the starter.

Next year's off-season will be interesting if we need to add depth at the 5 and let KP walk.

It's hard to have an impact on the games when you're injured on the bench...

I'm just going to not worry about injuries until they happen

It's difficult to have an impact when our point guard shoots 40% from the field and leads the league in turnovers with 355 last season.However, those poor numbers don't concern some Hawk fans.

KP is perfect for a championship caliber team and I don't believe anyone expects him to play 60+ games or average 30mpg. That's why we have depth. The man is 30 years old and needs to be extended. He needs to be on the team if 40% from the field and 355 turnover guy is extended.

A discussion about KPs lack of available and his future as a Hawk turns into a referendum on the PG? If he misses too manu games and unavailable for the playoffs this year why would the Hawks look to bring him back?

The discussion was in the Trae Young thread.

You support Trae's 40% shooting and being a turnover machine, but that's a keeper?

For seven seasons we continue to cycle thru players but Trae continues to get a pass. Now, we have a 30 year old game changer at the 5, but he might be a rental in the eyes of you and Jam.
