[QUOTE="kg01, post: 300425, member: 11"] Ah man, you lost me on this one CB. First, the useless stashes were Ferry's m.o. I expect this current brass to draft guys who they actually want to play. Remember they have like 3 2nd round picks so, if they keep all 3, they'll stash probably 1 but that's industry-norm nowadays. Seeing all these 2nd round Euro bigs panning out (Jokic - yes, he was a stash. Shocking, right?, Hernangomez x2, etc.), I can't blame them. All in all, they appear to value the draft more now. All that being said, if they can trade multiple picks for Butler or George, they'll undoubtedly do that. Rumor is they offered 3 1sts plus player(s) for either at the deadline but neither IND or CHI were ready to deal (i.e. they're waiting until draft night). Unfortunately, they'll be behind teams with lotto picks so that's a long shot. Yes, I'd even trade for George even though he's just biding his time until he can sign with LAL. I also don't agree with the 'wait til James gets old' plan. Look at them this year. Lebron has played the most minutes in the league which was allegedly a weird conditioning plan based on "analytics". However, it's clearly not gone as expected. They're clearly winding down and, although they're clearly the most talented team in the EC, they're an injury away from being really vulnerable. If the Hawks had traded, say, 3 picks plus Prince or Bazemore or w/e else not named Millsap for George or Butler? You telling me that team couldn't have found a way into the Finals this year? Now, obviously that's pure conjecture. However, if you believe the rumors, that wasn't [I]that [/I]far off happening. [/QUOTE]
