Ferry has done a damn fine job just needs a big name to land here.


he needs to draft better. I hate that they JUST missed Giannis last yr. I wonder if Larry Drew didn't tip the Bucks off about Ferry's interest in him. and I wish he'd taken Dieng or Plumlee instead of Bebe to begin with.

well it seems that they've gotten better since they brought in Ferry. or at least they're more in the background now. and not giving interviews trying to get pats on the back for having a decent payroll or saying "hey, at least we make the playoffs".

they're gonna need a Duncan-type star to do that. Pop gave an interview to the AJC when Bud was hired and he said yeah I can draw up plays, but having a Duncan or an MJ to execute em can make a coach look great/ make his life easier.

Hoping that Horford can stay healthy from now on and play more of that role. Does not play as big, but is not out of the question.

I was listening to a podcast last week where I think it was Zach Lowe said he thought the Hawks were a sleeping giant in the East.

More eastern conference teams should be good considering their market sizes.


Pretty much the entire east is a "sleeping giant" given the lack of competition outside of Miami.

Anyone who gets reasonably competitive in that half of the NBA automatically rockets to the #3 or #4 seed because Miami and Indiana are the only two teams that really scare anyone.

i would. People have been stealing spurs front office guys/coaches for years. Spurs stay great, no one else has great, just shades of good. Awfully like the patriots/bill Belichick tree
