Atlanta really lack that secondary ball-handler & playmaker on the wing. The offense struggles whenever Teague has to give up the ball.

It would be great if they could add that final piece in the offseason.

To replace Korver or Carrole? Who do you pick?

Kyle Lowry, Dwayne Wade, 13th pick in even numbered rounds, 18th pick in odd numbered rounds.

Carroll's quickness, overall athleticism + defense & rebounding make him the better pick to remain as starter.

Even if that wasn't the case, I would still pick Caroll over Korver because Korver is 34 years old. Korver's shooting should allow him to stay productive for next few years but I am skeptical how long he'll remain a good starting SG. Not the best athlete to begin with. A bench role should be the role Atlanta plan his future around.

Agreed.

Korver's age gives the nod to Carrole more than anything and I think he'll become a defensive liability sooner rather than later.


On another note, happy to see Otto Porter showing his potential in these playoffs after s tough rookie season...

Schroeder is a really good scorer and defender but his PG skills need work before he is ready to be a full time starting PG.

Funny, his offensive game was suppose to be the opposite coming into the draft.

Suppose to be a Rajon Rondo clone.

Holy crap, I had no idea that Ashton Kutcher was already 34, lol ;D. Deng ;) ;D, I thought that he was around 30, but I guess it's not hard to forget that he was a 2nd round pick of the 76ers, what, 10 years ago?

Edit - Korver was taken by the Nets at 51 in 2003.  Wow.

I know it's been mentioned before, but why doesn't Wall ever get the ball to Pierce?  Paul seems to be better without him, which shouldn't be the case.

C's have a lot of work to do to get to the top 4 in the East.  Cavs, Bulls, Wiz and Hawks all quite a bit more talented than the C's.

Yes they have more name brand talent.......but only the Cavs are the true road block .    The other three ...especially the bulls as not so special .....bulls have a lot of problems ....old,Paul, no,coach , poor Rose, etc .....they are not in such great shape....we can beat them or break even .   Couple up grades and we ll be competitive . Now the Western teams ......we are way behind ......even Utah looks stacked.

This has gotten uncomfortably close. I hope Atlanta can pull this out.

You watching Beal and Wall?   Very young and both better than anyone on the Cs.  That backcourt in itself puts them leaps and bounds ahead of the C's.
