Any interest in bringing him on?

Personally I think that guy is awful. Another guy proving that four-years of college ball means virtually nothing for your NBA prospects.

Temporary move to accommodate the trade. Dallas probably resigns him.

Bingo!

On the other had I would love for Atlanta to pursue him if Dallas doesn't. I like Nick, slow start, but many expected too much out of him, and now his game is heading towards the right direction.

i think we should take him he'd be a good replacement for chill just in case we dont re-sign or trade him.

Eh. He is Raef Lafrentz without the shotblocking and rebounding ability.

He should have to pass through waivers. I haven't looked at his contract but I would think he is a minimum salary guy so the Hawks should be able to get him if they want. He hasn't played any in the pros but he was a good rebounder in college and can shoot- seriously who is available that is better?

Not exactly the same type of player and Nick doesn't come close to being as productive as Josh Childress. I believe Josh continues to get underrated here.

Not seeing the Chill replacement thing, but I do see him as a far less expense Uncle Fester, I mean Charlie Villaneuva.

hmm....how can u be sure all u have to go by is his college and d-league and hes done well in both if not him elton brown or allred should be the guy.

You can go off his D-leauge and college games to see his weaknesses. When he catches a guy that is more athletic than him, he gets embarassed. When the guy is stronger than him, he gets embarassed.

He can definately shoot and can rebound some, but at his best, I don't see him being more productive than Chill.

WELL CHILL USED TO BE THE SAME WAY AND NICK IS A BETTER SHOOTER THAN JJ,JSMOOTH AND CHILL AT THIS POINT OF HIS CAREER IF U CHECK THE NUMBERS IT TAKES TIME TO LEARN THIS GAME AND TO ADD WEIGHT ALL IM SAYING IS THAT HE HAS A SOLID FOUNDATION AT THIS POINT IN HIS CAREER.

JJ WAYS DRAFTED AND TRADE WHEN HE STARTED OUT BOSTON THOUGHT HE WAS GARBAGE AND WE BAGGED ON SMOOTH CUZ HE SHOT TOO DANG MUCH AND CHILL GOT LAUGHED AT FOR HIS SHOT WHEN STARTED. POINT IS SOME PLAYERS ARE WORTH THE WAIT AND I THINK NICK IS COULD BE A VAN HORN OR CHARLIE V EITHER WAY HE CAN HELP OUT NOW AT LEAST FROM THE OUTSIDE AND BOARDS THATS WHAT U WANT FROM A "ROLE PLAYER"....RIGHT AND HE IS CHEAP TOO.
