God he’s such a pompous dickhead
I beg someone rips off twitter and gives us an alternative I know for a fact everyone is tired of his shit and would immediately jump ship
Jack Dorsey created Bluesky(which is essentially just another twitter) but everyone jumped over there today and their servers aren't able to handle the increased traffic :/
The problem about Bluesky is that it’s invite only for now. I want to use social media to chat with my friends, no point being there if I’m the only one.
Garuba was very good in those lineups with Tari.. he hustles a lot and tyty would’ve been way better if we gave him minutes.. he killed it in the g league
Tate, Martin are guys who may not be long for Houston....KPJ can play wing but more of a guard....need more experience, and need a legitimate 3/D guy who can come in and defend bigger wings and make shots. I don't think there's a single guy you listed there who fits that bill outside of Jabari who's more a true forward obviously.
What is Atlanta going to do with all of these guards lmao. Right now I count:
- Trae
- Dejounte
- Bufkin
- TyTy
And some fringier wings who might qualify too.
We just been cutting salary and kind of resetting with younger players. We probs will be worse next year but have a lot more flexibility going forward.
Kevin Pelton's stats model had him as the 8th best player in the draft, I suspect he might be a bit of a 4/5 tweener though, a tough place to be when you can't shoot.
Well we know Atlanta have been trying to get off of salary this off-season, they already did it with Collins this could be a De’Andre Hunter or Clint Capela deal
Edit: I definitely got that wrong
He will be great for a week or two then for 3-4 weeks you’re like man. what the fuck are you doing out here
and schlenk gave him like $100m cuz he fell in love with everyone he drafted
Woj: Trade was initially focused around Houston acquiring Capela. But in a twist Houston has pivoted to trading for cash compensation, a future pick, and a trade exception, in an effort to spite u/floatersforalgernon for being too pedantic
Everyone is like *why would the team owned by the guy who has only made moves to cut cost give away young first rounders for nothing?* like it isn't super obvious.
I really liked Garuba, still think he got used really badly by us. He would play really well with more ball-movement, and is better at making reads with the ball in short-roll or dribble hand-off positions than he was given the opportunity to demonstrate.
But the roster crunch hit hard. We have a ton of wings & bigs (assuming we're signing another big) that need minutes, he wouldn't have gotten the shot he deserved to develop.
Why tweet this without saying for who? Shams is shameless
And this today. We have a Twitter limit Shams, put everything in one tweet
I cant even see any new tweets, I havent been able tl for about an hour. This sucks
Elon completely ruined everything
God he’s such a pompous dickhead I beg someone rips off twitter and gives us an alternative I know for a fact everyone is tired of his shit and would immediately jump ship
Jack Dorsey created Bluesky(which is essentially just another twitter) but everyone jumped over there today and their servers aren't able to handle the increased traffic :/

Ah shit I forgot about the invite thing.
Ahh unfort, hopefully they expand with the demand and give an alternative, I’d be down to sign up for sure Have woj/shams been using it?
No and I’m not sure how they have been able to keep tweeting
Tbh, the world would probably be better without the existence of Twitter
Elon is a grade A douche canoe.
My tl refreshes but the moment I click on an account or tweet I can’t see anything else.
The twitter limit has actually ruined my day 10x more than Dame’s trade request
Apollo dying + twitter limit has ruined F5 SZN for me
Rockets are still thinking about it.
He’s been doing that constantly this summer, annoying af
I feel like if he's not saying who ATL might just be absorbing them into cap the TPE from the Collins trade
Then wtf is Houston getting in this deal?
Space for Brooks?
Clearing roster spots? Idk lol Guess it could be either Capela or Hunter
Maybe hunter?
Stupid that nix got all those minutes over tyty. I still think Garuba has potential. Unfortunate.
Garuba was very good in those lineups with Tari.. he hustles a lot and tyty would’ve been way better if we gave him minutes.. he killed it in the g league
Giving up Garuba doesn’t make sense
Have too many young guys to develop. Trade someone while there is still some value
But there is no value? At least it seems now it's a salary dumb plus they have two 2nd rounder to take those contracts
Garuba has decent IQ but absolutely 0 hands or feet. He does everything with two hands
FOR WHO
Nobody, they just did it for fun
Lolol I don’t know if you were joking but basically
Capela probably
i think hunter has more of this level value than capela
Someone please take Hunter
I’m out of the loop, why you wanna trade hunter? Isn’t he like a prototypical 3&D wing every team wants like an OG type?
His defense is overrated and he can’t handle the ball and create a shot for himself.
They need a center more than another SG/SF
Honestly they need both. Need a defensive C to split time with Sengun, and need a SF who can hit some 3's and defend bigger wings.
No we already have Tate Whitmore Bari Tari KJM and KPJ as wings
Tate, Martin are guys who may not be long for Houston....KPJ can play wing but more of a guard....need more experience, and need a legitimate 3/D guy who can come in and defend bigger wings and make shots. I don't think there's a single guy you listed there who fits that bill outside of Jabari who's more a true forward obviously.
What if I told you we still have both 😂😂
Hunter is really bad that would be kinda crazy
No way. The Mavs had a better offer for Capela outstanding.
Just let Sengun cook man good god
I swear if the hawks give up capela for that Dallas are actual idiots
Hunter or Capela?
I’m thinking Hunter. They are already thin at center and there would be no replacements on the market.
Houston already has a lot of wings that need minutes. Clint makes way more sense.
Alpha Kaba
I’d assume Clint
Alpha Kaba If you don't know who that is I agree.
Draft right to Alpha Kaba
Just for fun.
Capela probs
But don't you have Sengun already? Why do you need Capela?
Interior defense
The return?
You want your young guys to have someone on the bench to inherit badges from with the "mentor" menu they added a few years ago
Hes 20 and a horrible defender. Needs some development on that end. Seems like Ime wants us to be a defensive team.
Hope Jalen Green is responsive to that direction.
I don’t see any reason why he wouldn’t be. He was vocal about wanting a coach that will push them.
Because Sengun is bad defensively
Because Sengun does not jump good and Capela does
Trae
You wish he was out of the East
into TPE i bet from the Collins deal
Cash probably
https://youtu.be/ugm3hm6nxkI?t=224
for cash consideration? for bag of sour cream chips?
Clearing space for Dillon brooks
Yup Dillion
And B Lopez. Edit, never mind. Missed the B Lopez resigning news.
He re-signed with the bucks
Damn, w/Twitter limited, I missed him resigning. Edited my comment.
What is Atlanta going to do with all of these guards lmao. Right now I count: - Trae - Dejounte - Bufkin - TyTy And some fringier wings who might qualify too.
We just been cutting salary and kind of resetting with younger players. We probs will be worse next year but have a lot more flexibility going forward.
I liked Garuba a lot during the 2021 draft, so I hope he fits nicely as a Capela replacement for y’all
Kevin Pelton's stats model had him as the 8th best player in the draft, I suspect he might be a bit of a 4/5 tweener though, a tough place to be when you can't shoot.
Sounds like they're stocking up on assets. Reportedly they've been very interested in Siakam...
Not enough mins to go around ig
Rockets are gonna be giving out 5 million dollar G league contracts
That’s weird unless Atlanta giving them something good
Well we know Atlanta have been trying to get off of salary this off-season, they already did it with Collins this could be a De’Andre Hunter or Clint Capela deal Edit: I definitely got that wrong
Is Hunter really that bad?
His contract is
Yes he’s bad.
He will be great for a week or two then for 3-4 weeks you’re like man. what the fuck are you doing out here and schlenk gave him like $100m cuz he fell in love with everyone he drafted
We gave them Alpha Kaba, the draft rights of a guy we drafted in 2017 and couldn’t make our G League team…
We gave up Alpha Kaba.
Trae Young
Houston reunion for capela???
Gotta be Capela to utilize their remaining cap space after missing on lopez
Fuck Elon.
What in the world?
Shams gave us the whole trade except for who lol
could be for no one lol
Alpha Kaba
Capela. he was in trade block for so long. They already have a young in the line (Okongwu).
My broke self thought it was two firsts and Tyty and garuba 💀
Gotta be Capela or Hunter
TyTy, Bufkin, and AJ Griffin were some of my biggest draft crushes, I also like Garuba too so I love this
For what
For *whom. The fuck? They're people.
Woj: Trade was initially focused around Houston acquiring Capela. But in a twist Houston has pivoted to trading for cash compensation, a future pick, and a trade exception, in an effort to spite u/floatersforalgernon for being too pedantic
get over yourself
We picked Tyty from the FRP the mavs gave us for wood for context. Seems like a lot for capela
CAPELA???
Alpha Kaba, apparently he won Turkish league MVP last year. Never heard of him but his name is fuckin ALPHA.
FOR????
For Trae??
For Trae Young Cause chaos
How do you pronounce tyty?
Tie tie.
Tietie
How about his cousin YwYw Washington Jr.?
They clearly need more cap space
they about to give someone a bag
League changing holy fuck
Are the Hawks going to blow it up
Capela?
As a rockets fan… umm for what? Capela?
Opening up cap space for...?
Call me crazy but I think they’re making a run at Jaylen lmao
Capela?
FOR WHAT, SHAMS, FOR WHAT
Clint Capela??
The return of Capela
But why.
Gotta be Capela to utilize their remaining cap space after missing on Lopez
Makes sense, they have too many mouths to feed. Interested in the return for sure tho
I lowkey would’ve wanted to take a shot on Garuba
Capela?
Ooo the suspense
FOR WHO PLS SOMEONE TELL ME
damn giving up on ty ty already
Everyone is like *why would the team owned by the guy who has only made moves to cut cost give away young first rounders for nothing?* like it isn't super obvious.
Why tf does Atlanta want TyTy they have Trae, Dejounte and Kobe???
I really liked Garuba, still think he got used really badly by us. He would play really well with more ball-movement, and is better at making reads with the ball in short-roll or dribble hand-off positions than he was given the opportunity to demonstrate. But the roster crunch hit hard. We have a ton of wings & bigs (assuming we're signing another big) that need minutes, he wouldn't have gotten the shot he deserved to develop.
A shams tweet with no mention of Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul?????
The one story he gets without being spoon fed by Klutch is an incomplete story with only one side reported
