Hayes getting waived is what happens when a draft pick doesn't develop, hence why I am worried for Black.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

A specifically terrible day to make that mistake. :lol:

There is literally no reason to waive him at the deadline for that team.


Can't shoot
Plays defense
Doesn't make many mistakes because he never attemps anything

He is our guy!

So you think his market will be much stronger in the Summer?

Black has shown infinitely more than Hayes. At the very least, he isn't the worst shooter in the NBA like Hayes.

Here's the problem with Murray.. sometimes he cares other times he doesn't. Jalen Suggs always cares.

He got a lot of good chances and minutes, he just sucked. This should be a worry for any draft pick.

The Hawks appear unserious about actually trading Murray.


Did we assume the Hawks are just giving Murray away? I’d expect them to want Atleast one decent piece back..

We are in deep with Washington involving Tyus & Gafford but we will not include Suggs and that's the sticking point. I dont think it gets done

The problem with Murray is that he isnt quite a point guard and he isnt quite a shooting guard.

That problem is fine when you play OK defense and you are next to Trae Young in the back court. Next to Paolo and Franz? No thanks.

I'd rather have a guy that doesnt require the ball in his hands + a real point guard to set them up in a half court.

Gafford was already moved... So no.
