Hawks might be my favorite offseason. I can see how he can fit there as the new tony snell, and if not, who cares?!

I know you have a TLC thing but ignoring that minor move they did have a really really good offseason.

Would you say the Hawks signed No Scrubs?

I heard they made an offer on Robin "Left Eye" Lopez though. Then when he didn't sign they burned down Danuel House.

First I have heard of a TLC thing; I wouldn’t be surprised if he was cut. But I also wouldn’t be surprised if he soaked up 10 mpg as a swing body for a team he fits well.

I was very serious, I think Atlanta keeps winning on all their moves, even the small bench fliers that on average don’t work. Just a great set of offseason moves IMO.

You think dad jokes get held against mods? Is this your first day here? :D I wouldn't have made it through two polls if that were the case.

Yeah I'm guessing a lot of posters here have no idea about old Andre Rison's house, but I knew someone old like me would get it, :lol:

Is there any consolidation trade that the Bucks could make at some point in the season with 2-3 of the following: DDV, Allen, Connaughton. Like a 2 for 1, 3 for 2, or maybe even a 3 for 1. We can also add 2nd round picks as well.

With the news of Jahlil Okafor being waived by the Nets (who were over the roster limit), I thought about whether there were any teams out there that might be able to utilize a third string big. Looking over rosters, the Blazers seemed like a potential fit.

Damian Lillard / Anfernee Simons /
C.J. McCollum / Tony Snell / Ben McLemore
Norman Powell / Nassir Little / CJ Elleby
Robert Covington / Larry Nance / Greg Brown
Jusuf Nurkic / Cody Zeller /

While Zeller gives them good athleticism as the backup, maybe Okafor could provide a little bit of scoring from the center position like Kanter did in a much more limited role. I like Jahlil and would like to see him stick somewhere.

A wing. Preferably one that can really shoot. Or a PG that would allow us to move Jrue to SG.

But really, I would consider anything other than a pure center. Our roster is really flexible.

We signed Chriss who I much prefer as C3 than Jalil.

I kinda hate how tight that is. Because they should still be looking for a major move and they should also not be starting the repeater clock on such a bad team. I realize Prince and Bev fall off but they are also a key matching piece to a Simmons or other major move.

But I guess Layman and Okogie can be dumped cheaply enough if need be.
