Hawksquawk insider saying Rockets after Mikal Bridges

I agree that package is trash.

 

This Hawks guy is a kook.

here is a four teamer that works in theory but probably won't happen because the Rockets have to take on salary.

here is a four teamer where we manage to get Collins, duck the tax, and the Hawks get to keep their pick.

Wouldn't Parker be routed elsewhere?

 

Yep

This is garbage for us. Why would we take this?

 

Would take Looney over Bell.

And add Okogie to Rockets too.

*Prefer Collins or Reddish over Hunter.

 

This would be ideal. If we could find a way to get Collins and Covington we would be set.

 

I like Diop more than Okogie here but it's tough to do regardless.

Here.

We trade a pick and Hawks trade a pick

We have to get Reddish over Hunter because Hunter makes too much.
We also have to forgo getting Collins because it's very difficult to see it there.

I like my previous trades much more.

 

The guy sounds insanely bullish on Reddish. Assuming he has the pulse of the Hawks's front office, I wouldn't believe a trade involving either Reddish or Collins until they were signed and in the league office.

 

I don't know if even Cleveland wants to take on the Wiggins contract for Love's. They'd be one of the few, I guess, where taking on Wiggins wouldn't cause the GM to slam down the phone. At least Love plays a bit when he isn't hurt. Hasn't Wiggins essentially checked out of doing the things an NBA player with aspirations of greatness should? Would that change with a change of scenery? 94 million over the next 3 years though...plus whatever's left of the 27.5 he's owed this year...ouch.

Demanding that Wiggins be part of a deal for Covington is Minnesota saying they don't want to deal at all.

 

They're really desperate to part ways with Wiggins. But as Pork from "Gone with the Wind" would say, "Askin' ain't gettin'."

 

True. Wouldn't you try to move him if you were running the team? I guess they can ask and see if John Wall is available...

Wiggins's contract is just such a load that I can't believe they're serious when they say he has to be included in whatever Covington deal happens. Maybe one doesn't happen, if KAT says he'll be very displeased if they move "his best friend on the team."?

 

Didn’t you hear?!

Tilman is allowing Morey to upgrade the team without financial restrictions.

 

Minnesota has Crabbe's expiring if they really, truly, madly, deeply want De'Andre Russell. Although they likely won't include it, not willingly, so they can facilitate off-season deals when the deal expires.

But these GMs gotta give to get. We'll see.

 

"MIN and GS could take awhile for to fight over picks and protections

Houston - Atlanta are working to have a deal in place just in case this one falls apart. Both believe this one will eventually get done"


Another dude there pulling a clutchfans kind of post lol: "We're been used to get others to up their ante."
