Yeah, if we are going to overpay for someone, Horford would be my pick. That guy plays hard and brings the defensive intensity this team needs. I would do a sign and trade Lee for Horford at the drop of a dime.

guys.. he is a restricted FA. Hawks will match any offer. We have a better chance at Lebron. AT least Lebron can come if he wants to. Horford cant even do that

it would make the hawks pick and choose. i think if the knicks offer him or joe johnson close to the max they can, then the hawks will pass on one of the them. hawks ownership and $$$ is in pure dissaray. joe johnson won't be a hawk next year b/c some team will give him $90 mil - maybe the knicks, bulls or clippers.

that is exactly why the Hawks will keep Horford, because JJ will be somewhere else. Horford at the post rookie max is a good asset to have. He's a bit small for a center but it doesnt matter. 4/5 frontcourt two way player. Nuff said.

Not necessarily. If they lose Johnson they are likely a lottery team.
