There are at least two, blockbuster sign-and-trade proposals the Hawks are chewing on regarding Smith (one from a Western Conference power and the other from an Eastern Conference big dog) that could dramatically change the landscape in Hawksville.

Wow, Hawks suck dick. Here I thought they would build on their playoff berth and now they will regress back to the lottery.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

We're no eastern conference big dog so it aint us. Dumars has been trying to get active, so I could see him making an offer. Not sure what Hawks would want off that roster though.

If they take Deng, they will be in the same position with Deng, next year, that they find themselves in right now with Smith. Actually, Deng would be unrestricted.

Curry has 0 value, in this deal he is pretty much just cap-fodder. We'd have to trade Lee and Chandler to pick up Josh Smith who is a shoe-in for MikeD's offense and would be a huge player for us.

Atlanta needs to clean up their team anyway......if Josh goes to Detroit that would be kinda awesome.

Too bad our Knicks are just gonna let contracts play out and sign guys just to fill roster spots for the time being.

they said blockbuster for ATL w/an Eastern Conference big dog, so that pretty much rules out any trades w/us.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

the smart move for the hawks would be josh for okafor.. that would make the hawks so much better.. I agree, the hawks don't need to overpay for josh smith, he is good, but what he provides for them is not worth the money is he looking for.. Okafor will rebound, block shots and defend the bigs... they still have marvin williams, added evans and they have big joe johnson......

Horford made Smith expendable as long as they get a good piece that fits in return. What the Hawks really need is a point guard.

oohah
Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

LOL. You are kidding yourself if you think that Atlanta would want Gallinari. I think you are misjudging how much appeal that Gallinari has concerning other teams.
