    think they wanted Jerami Grant but obviously had their eyes on this trade happening first. So a player profile like that.

    I really dont have a name that I like that has also been rumored to be available.

    Know Philly is trying to move Thybulle. Sacramento is shopping Harrison Barnes. Would think we would want to get a splashier name but another factor is do we stick with the Capela/OO combo.

    This is awesome. Trae needs someone else to take some pressure off of him.

    2 things I thought about tonight

    1. at no point will Dejounte ever see the opponents best perimeter defender, which wasn’t the case for him last year

    2. Trae has a chance to be one of the best catch and shoot guys alive

    the number 1 question mark is Nate bc this is a really good roster as constructed

    Not even mentioning Nate but our assistant coaches are pretty unremarkable. Even more so with Jent leaving for the Lakers to be their top assistant.

    That Bud bench was elite. I hate everything about Nate and want him out ASAP

    Good thing is he should be on a short leash if this team has a slow start

    ressler doesn’t seem to be the patient type, if our offense stagnates it’s 100% on Nate

    If Ressler traded Huerter to the Celtics to save himself from the luxury tax then I am out on him.

    Ya'll trading Collins for Duncan? Feels like this is the percursor to another move

    Hawks franchise has significantly increased in the short time he has owned it and he can’t pay a little tax to compete? Death to all billionaires

    It’s hard to fathom how big Hunter is. You can’t fault Shlenk for betting on the tools. Hope a healthy off season is allowing him to learn to facilitate

    Hopefully Trae and his dad spent some time with Nate teaching him how to coach

    I’m hearing good things about Deandre Hunters off-season

    IMO he is the variance …. If he can be an efficient 3 point shooter and play make just a little we will be fn good.

    we also have an impact defender at each level and 2 lead guys who don’t turn it over

    nate is the biggest ?

    I really like this team. I even kind of like Bogie will have to work his way back into the flow, he should be money as a bench player in March and April

    like the off-seasons I’ve read about from OO, Trae, Hunter and Capela.

    still hate the Huerter trade with all my heart.

    If you could pick 3 week day games to go through that aren't the Lakers, what would the be? I have floor seats from a charity event & don't know which game to pick.

    Pulled the trigger on a “weekend stack pack” for this year. 10 games all on Fri, Sat or Sun.

    Very excited about this team.

    The most underrated move of the offseason is getting Kyle Korver's brain back in the building.
