The number of teams rumored to be interested in some kind of multi-team deal is growing. Portland, Miami, Philly, LAC, Toronto, Brooklyn, now Phoenix & Indiana. This is after the Hawks were “listening” on everyone but Trae all off-season and there was legitimate smoke around Capela and Hunter, but nothing materialized.
At this point do you think the Hawks should be trying to get involved? Do we want to see a change at the 3, or Okongwu start while we move Capela to upgrade elsewhere? Is there someone on one of those teams you’d like to see us to get?
Obviously we aren’t after Dame or Harden and probably not Ayton either. It sounds like Toronto is pursuing Dame and I don’t know how that changes their interest in moving Siakam. They’re all over the place. I’m thinking about whether the Hawks can slide into a facilitator role and find a good move.
