    Another bad injury day in the NBA, like when Marc Gasol, DRose and Iguodala went down on the same day. :(

    Yeah, but now we might have the leverage to get Brooklyn's pick along with Brand and some filler.

    Dang. Tough luck for the Hawks.

    There goes one of the few gleams of respectable teams in the East...

    As if the East was not bad enough, the basketball gods decide to troll us even more.

    Sucks for Horford, he tore the other pec last time. Probably done for the season.

    An MRI today revealed Hawks' Al Horford tore his right pectoral muscle. He's out indefinitely as Hawks research options.

    If I remember correctly Atlanta does have an unprotected 2014 first round draft choice that once belonged to the Nets.

    Shouldn't have let him get banged up at C all these years... Asik was just a trade away.
