    The thing is though we SETTLED for Gordon - and that was because Anderson recruited him in ....and Gordon is a much better player than Bazemore....we should have known that - glad it worked out though...

    Bazemore is not at Gordon level, but we also have different systems and we are minus Dwight and Hawks is plus Dwight :(

    I'm hesitant to get too giddy after 28 games - still a small sample. But I was not upset by missing out of Horford or Bazemore as I never felt they were game changing. Horford is a great player though.

    I am not surprised by Anderson and Ego except for the fact that they have managed to stay healthy.

    Aside from health, I have been really surprised by Gordon's man on man defense. He looks like a plus defender. I didn't expect that.
    He also is better than I expected at getting to the basket on dribble drives.

    Would love to have Horford with our current roster as it is now :)

    Scrubby Bazemore? Hawks may be looking to move him per Woj.

    Atlanta is another team to watch. They got rid of Dwight. Kent Bazemore's name has come up today in discussions. They gotta make a decision on Millsap & how far they want to go. Their new GM said last week he may have offers greater than what he'll have in Atlanta which means we're not ready to commit fully financially. You may see cost cutting in Atlanta. They may be rebooting in Atlanta.

    I think Bazemore would have been good for the Rockets as someone who can create a little bit, hit some shots, and guard the 1-3 spot. He was being asked to play above his offensive skill level in ATL.

    Yeah looking back on it now I'm sure Bazemore isn't too happy about his decision. I am, he wouldn't of gotten us past 2nd round
