Um… how? We have no draft capital. Allen and Little would be needed to make it work salarywise, but the Hawks can certainly do better.

De'Andre Hunter and Murray for Beal appears to work from a salary perspective.

Murray is ineligible to be traded until Jan 5th, but I'd imagine the Hawks will gather offers for at least a few weeks. Of course it would hinge on Beal accepting a move to Atlanta which is unlikely, otherwise it seems like a pretty good deal for both sides.

I feel like Ishbia came in here thinking he could run his franchise like "Franchise" mode on easy on NBA 2k. This team is just soul crushing the way they've been playing. We should be steam rolling teams.

Mikal is wearing the orange Book 1's and the Nets are down by 13 to the Pistons in the first quarter.

Is it the shoes?

Nets seem to have pulled off the win. Pistons losing streak continues.

I watched the first half and was really hoping the Pistons could get the win. Great game from Cade, not so much from Ivey or Stewart.

Same, think they’ll get a win in their next 3-4. They’re a much better team with Duren in the middle, and he should get better after a few games out with an ankle.

For the love of God, I hope his beautiful face and muscles didn't get severely bit. This is a true shame.

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Hard to fathom how stupid you have to be to do a "shoot the guns" dunk celebration after just being suspended 25 games for publicly glorifying guns.

He is absolutely my least favorite player in the league. Poser, spoiled brat that grew up with everything in his hands yet tries to act like he came from a tough upbringing and continues to glorify guns. Refuses to acknowledge, won’t learn from his mistakes.

At least Draymond is legitimately insane. This kid is just a spoiled punk that didn’t get his ass kicked enough.

I’m kind of surprised Silver hasn’t done anything…feels like a clear indication he didn’t learn anything…I’d give him another couple games to think about it

This is what happens when Dad is too busy getting riding coattails.
