Shanks told me Hawks were getting LeBron and Melo. Fan base would probably grow 100 times over.

lol nobody signs with the Hawks. The franchise has spun their tires for 10 years. Haven't gotten any better. The front office and ownership doesn't try to get better. It's really hard to keep a fan base when the people running a team are clueless.

I don't know crap about basketball but they have a new GM that has really helped the team get into position to win. They shedded like 150 million of **** payroll last offseason that created some room. Going forward they seem to be in much better hands.

You would think. However the Hawks will never have as much talent as they did a few years ago.
 
Orlando got ripped.

I would of traded Lamb and one of OKC's 1's for Afflalo.

Wouldn't work. Need to match the salaries. OKC had no options unless Orlando wanted to take back Perk and they wanted no salary back in return.
 
This is probably where it all starts.

Embiid go here or slide.

Parker/Wiggins 1-2 was easy to see with Embiid's injuries.

Trade them Reggie then, AA makes OKC title favorites.
 
I would have taken Embid depending on if injuries aren't considered long term problems bc he has highest upside. I would always take upside.

But, I can see Parker/Wiggins bc both of those guys project to be great players as well. Im not sure they are that far below Embid.

Sixers gonna have Embid and Noel?
 
I see Embiid flopping(not a bad player but I just don't think he'll be Hakeem.) Just dont have a good feeling he'll stay healthy or develop a strong offensive game. Still think the sixers should take a chance on the upside here though.

Embiid's only concern is health, he'll be very good if the injuries dont hurt him long-term.
