Glad divisions don’t really matter...we’re in a tough one.

John Collins being shopped. Any interest? Does Dario and a pick get it done? Would it take more? Would Collins improve the team more than a healthy Dario?

I am assuming there is no way that Frank keeps playing this well, and we will need more of what Dario brings than Collins.

Are they just shopping him because they don't expect to extend him this summer?

Turned down a 90 mil extension from them last summer.

Collins is absolutely a perfect offensive 5 for us...Not sure what he’d do to our defense though.

At the time of writing, Jan 19th Collins stands near the top of some of the best known impact metrics. He’s tied for No. 8 in total RAPTOR. He’s No. 21 in Estimated Plus-Minus. And he’s No. 37 in Box Plus-Minus.

According to PBP Stats, the Hawks have a +11.1 net rating with Collins on the floor, and a -11.3 net rating with him off.

Don't know if those are cherry picked numbers or if they mean much (they don't to me) but that's what I could dig up.

What if we just refer to those seasons as the ole days—it feels wrong to call those seasons good, even sarcastically.

This is making the rounds a bit and we've seen stuff like this from the Suns, but I love how Gobert moves around the paint to the open spaces when the ball is moved around and swung until they find him for the dunk. Just constant movement to get and stay open, with his hands up ready to catch a pass.

Would you all trade Ayton for KAT? I could see KAT asking out after this season, the way it's going for him both on and off the court. He may just want a fresh start.

Well it take more than Ayton. KAT is clearly the superior player, but I would have concerns about our defense with a trade like that.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.
