    Won't have the cap room, if you trade for him now, you own his bird rights.

    Sign me up for this deal.

    The Hawks won't trade him for T-Mac. If he plays well next season, they'll simply match whatever he fetches on the market next offseason.

    The Hawks are in need of ticket sales and Tracy could be the savior. It's a possibility.

    Where does it say we can't go over the luxury threshold for a couple of seasons?

    You would rather have an older, more injury prone, less versatile offensive player?

    if we're going to sign a star, we have to sign someone better. joe is NOT going to get better, and he doesn't play better in the playoffs.

    Apparently, you haven't seen a lot of Joe Johnson.

    T-Mac makes like 8.5 mill more than Joe Johnson. It would be hard to get that trade done.

    Can someones please make a preseaon random trade thread? This is getting kind of ridiculous.

    P.S. they'd be the laughing stock of the NBA if they traded Johnson for McGrady. :D THANKS!

    We may not have the cap room when mcgrady goes off the books, but the hawks might. I havent checked so I dont know for sure, but if they do, and they know that there is a chance JJ leaves, I could see them trading him.

    That makes some sense, but I still don't see ATL doing it.

    If they do have enough cap space to where Macs contract actually means 23 mill for FAs, I can see them doing it closer to the deadline. But thats a big IF.

    This is the guy that made it past the first round of the playoffs while guarding DWade.
