    Altanta has Bird Rights to Horford. They can go over the cap to sign them.

    Don't think they have Bird Rights on Bazemore.

    Hmm, I think he might actually for well there considering there PF millsap can take the big man scoring load but in my opinion a downgrade from horford. Some teams trash is another teams treasure. Sometimes fit is right in some places

    Horford and Bazemore both have cap holds, so it's not quite that simple. I'm not sure what their holds are though.

    Cause he didn't want to be here last season and was frustrating to watch during the regular season.

    Don't see why he wouldn't stay. Better chance of winning

    Correction to my post, Bazemore doesn't have Bird Rights.

    Pretty much, organization not doing much of anything at the moment. Not like there were A-list players available this off-season so can't really be that bummed.

    That is a great contract for the Hawks. Way under market value of the ridiculousness of money being thrown around.

    Count Horford too resign.

    Baze, Anderson, Rondo might be it barring a blockbuster trade or Durant. Morey better do something quick, this offseason is his last chance after squandering the previous few years

    Howard left while the season was still young. The meltdown already occurred. This signing was just a formality. :grin:

    Glad he got paid. Good for him. My only question is does he want to play for 3 more years or will be re up in 3 years
