    Yeah, I don’t mind this deal at all. Shame that Bruno didn’t work out, but c’est la vie.

    Stone and Silas obviously hate Alpi so much they traded away the guy who's been taking all his minutes! Unforgivable AND racist!

    (Did I do that right, SOFs?)

    banking a couple 2nds... and clearing a couple roster spots for the off season free agent spending... totally expendable players on cheap multi year contracts... good for us and good for the Hawks...

    beneficial... but meh...

    Great deal.

    Gives us close to 5mill more cap space in the summer for FAs (who may not sign here)

    Two 2nds is mehh. At least one is a 2024

    Garry Bird and Fernando weren't going to move the needle for us in anyway possible. So no problem cleaning up the books and adding some draft capital.

    Hawks get two playable end of the rotation players for playoff depth. Small win for both teams.

    All I ask is that Gary is not waived, he should not stop being an NBA player.

    And you all should know why, I shouldnt have to tell you.

    Thank God we got rid of Gary Bird lol. Hopefully Silas isn't attached to these new players and he just ignores them like he should have with Bird/Fernando

    More trash to waive so we can clear the cap. Thank goodness that Bird is gone.
