root down Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Obviously Aldridge is the prize. I think it comes down to Spurs and Hawks. The Hawks can make a legitimate case foe being one player away from competing for a title. Especially being a dominate player in the paint. The spacing that is created would give Aldridge lots of great looks.Next would be Marc Gasol then Greg Monroe. I think Bud resigns both Carrol and Millsap. Neither has had success anywhere else and are team / winning is important guys. The window is closing on Millsap and Carrol could sign a 2yr deal then get paid again either with Hawks or another team. If we can't sign Millsap for a reasonable price then I like Jordan Hill as an option.I'm totally on board with bringing in Taveras for Pero's spot.Bud got a ready to start 2 guard with a handle who shot 43% his rookie yr. last yr was understandable playing on a disfunctional team whose GM had mailed it in. So step one, improve at 2 guard so Korver can come off the bench. Step two try to keep that 60 win core together. Step 3, tweak the roster thru FA to improve weaknesses, like scorin from the post.

WOR Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Tavares will make around 3 million in his other league if he stays. We're not going to pay him that much, so it's probably a slim chance he's over here this season unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkbigdog35 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 You would like to see Tavares on the squad but I don't get the feeling the Hawks are going that direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
