Kirk Hinrich added in makes the salaries work
But why would they trade Hinrich and Smith for KG? Smith has been their best player this year, should have been an all-star, and may actually be a bargain for what he makes.
The C's would have to really sweeten the pot for Atlanta to even listen right now.
I unfortunately agree with this too. It makes me wonder about some Rondo/Teague stuff happening. I could see some picks moving
The problem is, I think Smith only makes sense if you are keeping Rondo. Not only are they old buddies, but I think Smith really needs a PG like Rondo to get the most out of him, and Rondo needs a running-make like Smith.
Let me also say, I think Smith could very well be a target of this team. I think they will try to entice the Hawks with with their cap space this summer and a couple picks/prospects for Smith. He also would be a major target in the summer of 2013, if they carry over their cap space. However, I just don't see a deal making sense for both sides before the deadline.
