Title: Re: Hawks/Heat Trade Post by: HeatGM on January 17, 2007, 09:01:45 AM i agree on this.... my frontcourt is so weak that even thompson can start for me :D but definitely an improvement :D
Title: Re: Hawks/Heat Trade Post by: WizardsGM on January 17, 2007, 09:11:48 AM I like this trade for the Heat. Upgraded their depleted frontcourt modestly without giving up much at all.
Title: Re: Hawks/Heat Trade Post by: KingsGM-old on January 17, 2007, 09:15:24 AM Yeah. Had no idea that Thompson is so cheap.
Title: Re: Hawks/Heat Trade Post by: CelticsGM on January 17, 2007, 09:47:50 AM thompson going for nothing. Ouch.
Bailey is just about the prototypical role player & career backup you can find. No offense, good defense, bad handling. He'll probably never deserve a starting spot. I don't even talk about Geiger. And while Thompson is nowhere a star himself, he's got tons more upside, and that in a league where decent big men are rare, especially now after half of the remaining veterans retired. Did i say "ouch" yet ? Title: Re: Hawks/Heat Trade Post by: HawksGM on January 17, 2007, 11:06:39 AM i think an A defender coming off the bench is a little more than nothing. Sure he has no offensive skills but defense matters too and 2 A defenders on the wing isn't something bad to have.
