    Milsap is already 31 and the improving Aminu is 25 and on a great contract. Sorry but F the aging Milsap (nothing personal), I'll stick with Chief and he is a guy who STEPS OI THE FUK UP in the playoffs, enuf said

    So, does that mean you'd pass on Al Horford, too? You do realize the only team that's beaten the Hawks in the playoffs the last two years is CLE, right? They have this guy LeBron, who's pretty good.

    Would you also pass on Anthony Davis? His team hasn't gotten anywhere in the playoffs either, when they've actually made the post season.

    I guess that was supposed to be some kind of insult. Just because Kyle Lowry is not better than Damian Lillard doesn't mean he sucks. I'm not sure why you're so against adding another all start level player to our roster.

    So, add Millsap and keep Chief (assuming you can). Not sure why this needs to be an either/or scenario.

    what do U give up to get Milsap? if it's cheap I might be okay with it, if not not thx
    Milsap makes 19 mil per for the next 2 yrs, I'd rather give up nothin and go after a FA C. IMO no way is he worth 19 mil per AND having to give up value to get him, no way no thx

    I've been saying all along that Horford is my top FA target by far.

    Prob with Horford is that I believe the Max for him is near THIRTY MIL per, I like him a lot, but at that price once again no thx as it cripples us with CJ getting at least 20 mil next summer. Horford 28-30 mil, Lillard 26 mil, CJ 22 mil? 3 players at 78 mil? If Horford was 26/27 maybe, at 30 (june 3) I'd rather pass

    This summer we need to add another starter on this team either pf or a center. I think between Harkless and Aminu can handle SF position plus both can back up the 4 position. Plum I would be put on trading block. Why I say him not Davis I think could get more from that trade. Plus I like Davis coming off the bench.

    Horford is a 9 year vet. He qualifies for the 7-9 year vet max, which is approximately 30% of the cap. If the CAP is around $92M as expected, that would make his max around $25.8M.

    Whiteside is a 4 year vet. He qualifies for the 0-6 year vet max, which is approximately 25% of the cap. $21.5M.

    Howard is a 12 year vet. He qualifies for the 10+ year vet max, which is approximately 35% of the cap. $30.1M.

    Atlanta can offer Horford a 5 yr "approx" 146 mil deal if they max him

    Apparently A LOT of teams are interested in Jan Vasely.

    Get on it Neil!

    Sure seem to be some good guys available in the 40's; Hammonds is intriguing, seems to be a slow learner and not a consistent motor, but is he finally starting to get it? One thing I notice is his weight is now up 28 pounds from what you have it listed.

    Based on your first response, I can see that you didn't look at the links I left there. And even in the regular season, aminu has better numbers defensively than millsap when it comes to perimeter defense. So after I realized you were too lazy to click on a link, or were incapable of reading once you clicked on it, I decided to not read the rest of your bullshit.

    We won't have capspace after CJs contract anyways. Might as well spend the money we have before it's gone!

    You wanna talk "defensive stats"? Go tell me what Aminus and Millsaps DBPM are from this past regular season. Its an 82 game sample, not an 11 game sample. Now tell me which sample is bigger.

    Also, you should probably only put something in quotations, if someone actually said it. Who the fuck are you quoting?

    I'd love Millsap if we were able to land a big name FA C. Sign and Trade Harkless or Leonard and toss in a first and Davis/... oh HAwks GM already hung up, guess how much i'd be willing to offer and how highly the Hawks value him are on a completely different level.

    So you were too lazy to pull up their respective DBPMs for me? How hypicrotal of you.

    If you said Aminu had better defensive stats during the season then your wrong. Once again. Pull up their DBPMs.

    "And even in the regular season, aminu has better numbers defensively than millsap"

    Is the term defensive statistics not the same as defensive numbers?

    Are we likely to have a look at Bazemore? That'd mean moving Aminu permanently to 4 and sharing minutes between Bazemore and Harkless at 3 but he'd be coming on the back of a good season. Athletic too.
