Atlanta Hawks GM Rick Rund talks about what he is looking for in possible trade scenarios, why the Hawks are a better team this year, and even compares them to the San Antonio Spurs.
The terrific Michael Cunningham reports Joe Johnson's pending absence from Tuesday's game against the Nets and about the Hawks defensive rebirth against Detroit.
Which means he will become an unrestricted free agent. Seems odd that Joe would expect to get more than the four years 60 million the Hawks offered.
The pessimist in me feels Joe might want to move on. The optimist in me thinks the Hawks might be better if he did. The hopeful in me is that market dictates the Hawks re-offering four years low fifty million next summer.
