The Atlanta Hawks

[CKR13]

Like the fact that this Hawks can dig deep when they are in need of a particular objective. Bazemore sparked them, Schroder can be counted on providing quality defense on his substitution and Mike Scott at times look like another Millsap on how he can shoot with such range.

Great win by the Hawks last night against mighty Golden State. What worked was the teams' belief in itself highlighted by their execution against the NBA's powerhouse offense and defensive team. GSW can wear and disrupt you with their active switching, trapping and swarming, but Budenholzer has a weapon and it was called the mis-direction sets brought on by those pick and roll on the side and Al Horford's savvy screen and roll game.

Even the Hawks have reached out to Ray Allen, joining GSW and CLE as potential destination. According to reports, Ray Allen will decide after the all-star break.

Good read about Hawks prospect Walter Tavares.

Man, I remember watching Schroeder, not sure if it was Jordan classic or some other youth tournament and I was intrigued by his speed and athleticism. I thought to myself, man if this guy doesn't screw up selecting the wrong team, improves some of the fundamentals and his shot, he might become really good. And now, watching him yesterday for mere 15-20 minutes, can't believe the improvement he has done. There is really something great in the making there. One of my favourite players suddenly.

Millsap re-signed with the Hawks for three years worth $59 million.

According to the media, Jeff Teague is available for trade. One of the interested parties is the Knicks. Although Knicks have not much to offer, Teague is under-performing this season whereas Schroeder is doing good this month.

First Jeff Teague was shipped out to Indiana which gives Schroeder the immediate mantle of floor general. Now, Hawks signed Dwight Howard on a three year deal while Al Horford remains open as a free agent.

Hawks complete the signing of veteran Jarret Jack to a one year deal. Good signing in all, Hawks get a floor stabilizer with Jack.

In a move that shows Budenholzer has clearly moved on from the offense he built around him to win so many games in the past, the Hawks are shipping Kyle Korver to Cleveland for Mo Williams and a heavily-protected first rounder.

According to reports, Sacramento is interested in trading for Millsap.

According to reports, Sacramento is interested in trading for Millsap.

I'm sure they're definitely not alone there. Millsap is a great pickup, especially if you have a shotblocker next to him.

Edit: In fact, apparently both the Nuggets and my Sixers have expressed interest in acquiring him in addition to the Kings and Raptors.

Apparently the Hawks have made Tim Hardaway Jr available as well due to not wanting to pay him as a restricted free agent this upcoming offseason. I can think of quite a few teams who could use a player like him. Wonder if Miami makes a move to make him their starting SF with Justise done for the season?

Hawks have traded Mo Williams for the rights to Cenk Akyol, then used the roster spot to sign Gary Neal. Such an underrated vet.
