Stackhouse Waived By Memphis

[geeman]

He would be a nice fit at sf off the bench. About a month ago, he was on the radio in atlanta staying
he wouldn't mine playing in Atlanta.

The Hawks have 6 million left assuming Marvin signs the QO before hitting the luxury tax with 4 roster spots left to fill including the need of a BIG.

Just because his name is recognizable doesn't mean that he's still a player. Stackhouse hasn't shown much since 2006-2007.

Flip > Stackhouse

Hawks need to focus on signing Flip. Flip is much better than Jerry right now. his ability to create and defend guys like CP and Deron (better than Bibby) is something the Hawks need, even though with the addition of Crawford.

^^^ True. Flip is a much better defender than he gets credit for. Crawford duplicates his production on offense, but we need a guy who can cover the opposing PG and he did a decent job doing that. I shudder at the possibility of Crawford/Bibby/Teague trying to defend that position consistently.

[evildallas]

Not sure if it really works this way, but I saw a story on Stackhouse saying he should be well rested because of his lack of use last season. It the opposite way of looking at my hasn't shown much assessment.

i would rather get another big body to throw out there than resign flip. even though i am a fan
