With all the focus on adding a rim protector, and whispers of Atlanta’s interest in Andre Drummond the Hawks made a trade —- for a point guard. Huh?
Granted, Atlanta needs another playmaker who can create for others but was adding Jeff Teague the priority? Or is this the first of several moves the Hawks plan to make?
Teague is in the final year of his contract so this isn’t necessarily a long term move and perhaps this is a move for Drummond because Teague’s $19 million is only on the books for this season.
As for week 13 anytime you get two wins when you start the week with only eight its a good week. In particular, the victory over the Spurs was impressive. Then again, in the very next game the Pistons routed them by over 30. Yikes!
