Hunter is 15/5 and Collins is 18/7. Harden, George and AD were traded for less :lol:

Collins also has to get paid. Id take Shai over both those mentioned, Id also take Ingram and lonzo over both those mentioned, hell Id take the nets center that houston gave away over those two. Hawks gonna have to come better than that to get a star



SGA averaged 11/5 when he was traded, and Ingram averaged 18/5, so yeah you'd take them now that you know what they are, but the reason both teams had to give up so many picks is cause they were still relative unknowns. You start by saying Collins is gonna get paid, but say you'd take Allen over them, and Allen is lining up for 4 years $100 million? :lol:

And if we win the next game, the pressure will be all on ATL to win game 6 because they gotta play game 7 on our court.


mpharris will say we win the series if we just win the game 6

I agree we didn’t hunt mismatches at all. It was an inept performance for the ages from multiple angles.
Where were these mismatches though? Who is the mismatch?

rivers also has simmons who will stop young so that'll be irrelevant regardless.

It's not about Rivers cause Simmons has been a great defender since coming into the NBA. Rivers is overrated as a head coach.

Less savvy fans: Burks and Rose and Randle can score 1 on 1. That's so important.

Fans looking at important indicators: RJ, Obi and Mitch don't have scoring skills like that but they know how to play and play to win. They have a good IQ and don't try to do too much on offense.

Shooting is important and if you have a Trae, it becomes really important. But the other things are pretty important. Does anybody think Burks or Randle are going to unlock something in the future that helps the team win big? Doubtful.

Do you really think Kawhi would go to NY to play with Randle?

Id take them before because they both had potential to be all stars, as opposed to rotational players. Pelicans inabilty to remove lonzo for more is on the ineptitude of their front office but even so, ok, remove them from the equation.
