    Perfect is a bit of a stretch.

    When Westbrook and Clint share the floor, Harden is in misery. That's a fact.

    I'm not too attached to Capela, so I wouldn't be upset if he got traded.

    Does ATL still have its 2020 FRP? With their record, I'd imagine they'd be picking pretty high; since this season is a lost cause already, why not just draft Wiseman?

    Young / Huerter / Hunter / Collins / Wiseman is really good.

    Tilman would tell Morey to package both picks for the 50-time reigning MVP, cash considerations.

    The quote specifically states that Morey is hesitant to move Capela unless he's blown away. The Hawks are terrible. Trae Young thinks he's the next big thing in the NBA and has a giant ego. They are the perfect team to blow us away with youth and length.

    I agree but needs another team involved. Clint worth more than Hunter. Unless Collins thrown in too.

    Brooklyn pick should be in the teens. I couldn't see Atlanta parting with their own pick unless it's top 5 or 10 protected. We would have Hunter (who went 4th in the draft), and Two first round picks to play with as youth or trade pieces next year.

    One reason to trade Capela is to get under the Lux. Tax. Could we just trade Tilman, and keep Capela???

    Needed for Salary Matching with just Hunter and Collins alone.

    you’d swear Hunter is some for sure All-Star level prospect the way he’s getting hyped on here...he has been the very definition of nothing special

    meh

    No FRP and I like it. But who will play center for Rox?

    That was the view on Kyle Lowry too, when Morey traded our starting PG for him. :p

    I'd be interested to see what the scouts think, because you know for sure that no one on here has watched him much. :D

    I’ve watched the Hawks a decent amount...only because of Trae Young

    he has never really impressed me

    CF loves to hype up what others got and sh*t on our own tho

    Cant play D worth shyte, no switch D ability because lateral agility is zero. Foul prone, cannot stay on floor even if relegated to only drop coverage on PnR.

    Better rim protector, but worse overall defender than Ryno on D.
