At first I thought Murray was the last kind of player the Hawks should target, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Tre Young was a zero in this years playoffs. I think they want to get the ball out of his hands a lot more of the time and have others create for him for a change. At first I was thinking that Brunson would be a better fit because of his shooting, but Murray's defense is more necessary to offset Young's lack of defense. I like it for Atlanta.
I wish we could have gotten in on a Murray deal. It may have been the perfect time to move on from Smart's offensive limitations, if we are ever going to do that. Now I'll be rooting for John Collins. Imagine having both he and Timelord available for lobs at the same time? That thought makes me excited to think about. Plus Collins spaces the court and has shown that he makes quick decisions.
