Expectations for the Hawks this year?

 

[Shanemansj13]

How about the last 20?

No one gives a shit! That’s too long

 

[Shanemansj13]

35-47. Good enough for a 4th seed and one series home court advantage.

35 wins gets the 4th seed? Yikes

 

[thunderc]

Expectations for the Hawks this year?

It’s tough because they went to the conference finals. I am not expecting a repeat of that.

Expectations for the Hawks this year?

The too 4 is so tough I’m not really sure. 2nd round matchup I would say. I dont expect the same as last year

 

[thunderc]

You guys remember Mookie Blalock much? Dude was a lockdown defender.

How about in the last 2 years then?

Drafted him in one of my all time drafts for that exact reason.

1st round knockout and a 6 seed is my prediction

 

[bksballer89]

Running it back doesn't end well especially when the previous season didn't end in a title. Outside of their draft picks, the only move they made was signing Dieng

Expectations for the Hawks this year?

They overachieved last year results wise but will somehow be better on court yet have lesser results if that makes sense

The Hawks played as the Buffalo Bisons in the old NBL. It merged with the NBA in 1949. They won their only championship as the St Louis Hawks in 1958 and eventually moved to Atlanta in 1968.

Let's talk about how Travis Schlenk is doing for the Hawks in getting that team to where they are today. Man hasn't missed.

We can discuss the trade of Trae and Luka, but so far for both teams it has worked out. Obviously Luka is crazy, but Trae in his own right is going to be a perennial all star and franchise player.

He built the core through the draft (Trae, Collins, Huerter). He traded for Clint Capela. Signed Bogdan Bogdanovic, Danilo Gallinari. Trade for Lou Williams and Delon Wright. Also has young talent in Cam Reddish, Jalen Johnson, Onyeka Okongwu, Hunter.

This team has been exemplary in putting together a really talented squad that can potentially compete at a very high level for years.

I’ve said it before but I’m confident that Atlanta is still very happy with the trade they made to get Trae Young.

I have an idea for what might be a fun offseason discussion. Let’s spend a 24 hour period discussing every organization. We can start wirh record holders for the club and then go from there. Trojan, if we get enough interest and you want to sticky this I will run it. Note: the Cavs only get 10 munutes.

If the Cavs only get ten minutes shouldn't a ringless franchise like OKC get five?
