DWill sign?

90% chance Dwill signs. I think CJ will be a 75% chance.

I think CJ is higher than that, given the defensive minds on the staff and the possibility that Marshall will not return... pass rush will be of the utmost importance.

One of our backs have to go.

Why? What a luxury to have talent that deep.

With Stewart and Goodson on rookie deals which are totally cheap, Williams would be the only big money back. We could sign him to a 6 year 36 million dollar contract with no problem. If you only guarantee 16 million of it and backload it with roster bonuses and bigger salaries at the end which he won't likely see, it could be very manageable. You might end up paying him 20 million of it over 3 or 4 years which would be a deal. The key is not guaranteeing all of it upfront and backloading it which we wouldn't have to pay if he wears down once he hits 30.

This. People tend to forget that Stewart isn't making big money. Yes, he was a 1st round pick, but the only 1st round picks that get the huge contracts are the ones that go in the top few picks.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
