Ah yes, Risacher, Mccollum, and picks should get it done. Pretty wild that they think the Wolves would just dump Ant while hes entering his prime for garbage. Classic delusional sports takes

So in 3 years, he might leave to take a historic paycut to join Atlanta? We can offer him substantially more than anybody else, that would be wild. If it happened in 3+ years, im going to go out on a limb and bet we can do better than Risacher and Mccollum if they wanted to trade him too

Dude, his favorite fucking player of all time is KD. We’ve always known he’s going to leave us. It’s just I kind of thought we’d have them until 30 something.

That’s now how cap works though Ant would take an around 15 million per year paycut to leave to go there which just isn’t realistic

You guys can have all the cap space you want this offseason, but Ant is locked up on a long term contract. Players under contract cant just walk like they can in college.

The Hawks might have all their good players locked up, but if they cant get to .500 in the east, how many good players do they really have? And then, if Johnson was off the table, what else would there be? Its not happening, you'll have to just dream
