A challenge to find help
Posted: Fri Feb 12, 2010 4:25 pm
Several people have posted suggestions to try and improve the Hawks via trade. Two problems with that are that the Hawks are very concerned with chemistry/continuity and we lack the desirable assets to make a serious trade. We'll know in a week if anything happens.
In the meantime I wanted to start people thinking about 2 other sources of help. Who is available in the D league who might be able to provide a bench boost (scoring or rebounding)? What veterans might get bought out down the stretch that we could try to woo? I understand that each of these ideas has problems like would Woodson even play them and would they be more likely to go elsewhere, but I'm just looking for candidates to add a little spark.
My own response:
While another bench scorer is needed in case of injury, seeing Jason Collins play makes me think a big is priority 1. I would like to suggest that Adele Aminu is doing some decent work in the D-league and might be worth a 10 day look.
Who has your eye?
