Make this one make sense Brad. Make it make sense.
Draft capital is more valuable than Vit at this time. Decent trade and what does Durisic have on the Hawks? Will old boy be investigating us next?
I liked Vit! I wish him luck.
Love a good emergency pod on a weekend. Stay warm Brad
Vit is redundant with Kispert and Kennard, so we’d rather have the backup center and draft picks? Thats all i can come up with. I dont know. Makes no sense. It’s probably something personal that we’ll never know
Marginal gains matter, but 😢!
Go Hawks!
dam! Dam! DAM!!!!!!! NOT VIT NOOOOOOOO!!!!
Dumb trade.
The last 2 trades have just been very ridiculous with weak returns. The Hawks rotation is dumb too
Yeah I knew it was going to be Vit or luke but dam for a injured player is sad and man I just hope he balls out but he is going to look weird without a hawks shirt 😢
Thanks from Portland, sad to see Duop leave, but he was likely gone anyway with the fracture.
I loved Vit🤦🏾♂️this hurt.. Quin didn't have enough belief in him, the Hawks problem is they don't have a Coach.
Thanks for Vit ❤
Hawks aint makin no noise anyway this year, Expect the 10th seed from this team
Reath is expiring contract..gotta make room for Hawks next super rookie via the Pelicans terrible season. Or keep Duop for next year. He's a pick & pop 3pt shooting Center
Brad hopefully this mean we are going to get dayron sharpe from the nets I truly hope we do
Kyle Kispert = Kyle Korver…..Yawn….
Dumb trade !!!
I don't see any advantage for the Hawks here. Why trade just for the sake of trading? Vit has value. 2nd round pick value is much closer to nothing.
Im hibernating on the Hawks. See y’all in 2027
Hawks gave 2 picks and a player for air
So, they broke up the white KKK…
As a Portland fan I might be a casual bc I never heard of Vit, is he a needle mover at all? Any growth potential? I see some fans upset but I’ve never heard of him so idk
A team that's never won and is consistently rebuilding but taking the direction of focusing on the future is an example of insanity
