Reason Bronny is listed at 6'1 is that the NCAA measures in shoes and rounds up, whereas the NBA measures barefoot and rounds down. That can make a huge difference.

It's hard to rebuild without their picks. But their picks aren't worth as much to SA until the Hawks move Trae. If I was ATL, I work towards getting all my picks back from SA by moving Trae there. If I were SA, I'd look to upgrade elsewhere with the hope that ATL implodes and the picks become super valuable, fast.

[@Austin2Sexy]

Spurs don't want Trae Young.

[@blablablaa14]

Spurs have made it clear again and again. There is 0.00% chance that they trade for Young, there is even less of a chance they give 3 picks back to the Hawks when they just got number 1, proving that if the Spurs wait for 3 years, they will have 3 high picks at minimum top 15. Why would the Spurs look at the Hawks failure for years, and then say "oh lets get the guy who caused them to be so bad" If the Spurs trade the 3 picks to the Hawks, they will want Trae and the first pick in the draft, so they can add Sarr to Wemby and have a defense that can cover Trae. Otherwise, no chance. Trae isn't worth 3 unprotected first round picks

I agree, but the Hawks should be willing to go below market value for Trae. No team is dying to get him, as you'd need to readjust your whole team due to his strengths and weaknesses. Honestly, Hawks extracted everything of a player like Trae, if he moves to another team don't be surprised with his numbers decreasing drastically
