Anyone else thinks that the Atlanta Hawks will have the worst record in NBA?

I think Brooklyn, Kings, Suns, Magic, Lakers will be worse...

Kings just signed ZBo and Hill, so I think they'll do enough to not be concerns.

That is a decent team there.

PG - George Hill, D.Fox
SG - Buddy Hield,
SF - Tyreke Evans, Josh Justin Jackson
PF - Labissiere, Z-Bo
 C - WCS, Koufos, Papagiannis


I really like that Tyreke Evans - George Hill combination. I think those two will work very well together. Balance each other nicely. Then throw in the shooting / scoring of Hield. That is a dangerous perimeter trio. De'Aaron Fox off the bench. That could be a fun group.

I liked what I saw from WCS late last season. Took good steps forward. Papagiannis has some promise too. Koufos and Z-Bo are very good bench guys.

Need a bench wing they can rely on. I read they were after Vince Carter. That would work.

Sacramento shouldn't be amongst the league's worst. Not a playoff team either. Somewhere in between.

Schroeder is their best player and he's probably not one of the top 20 players at his position. I think the Hawks are going to be very very bad.

The NBA is still very much secretly a coach's league so I'll guess that a team with Budenholzer and a couple decent vets will be better than young teams with unproven coaches such as the Nets, Suns, Lakers, Pistons, Bulls, Jazz. 76ers could actually be worse next year if they give starter minutes to Simmons and Fultz.

Isn't Josh Jackson on the Suns?

The guy out of North Carolina. What's his name? Josh J---?

Sorry, Justin Jackson. That is his name.

I keep getting their names muddled up.

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.
Just remember the Hawks bench beat the Cavs at hone. Hardaway is going to be a good player. Chicago, Orlando and Brooklyn are worse. Philly will be just a hard better with Reddick. Baylee's will be back too.
