This is one of the trades of all time
As weird as this sounds, I think this is a good trade around the margins. There is a world in which one of Roddy or Lindell will have to play spot minuets as the backup 4 and I think Roddy is slightly better.
I’ve been saying all offseason “we’re a David Roddy away from being legit contenders”
Does anyone know if he can shoot 3s?
Would’ve rather kept Liddell, he’s a poor man’s millsap. If the suns don’t cut him for money purposes he’s gonna randomly become valuable. Like Jock Landale did
Bring back Nathan knight
Who and who?
6’4 John Collins, the Hawks DNA must be outstanding
This is the big change they been telling us about 😤😤
Lateral but okay… no literally, both of these guys are wide 💪🏾 ( ̄ 3 ̄) ╭
I feel like EJ could’ve been a better, third or 4th string PF, but no matter! This is deep end rotation stuff anyways, I’m not tripping.
The $$ is weird here. For this year, whatever. Probably just means we’re cutting Bruno.
Where it’s weird is next year. Roddy’s TO for ‘25-‘26 has to be exercised this October – before he actually plays for us. Are we getting a 2nd?
Roddy the bodyyyyy. WE MOVE
Anyone have a guess on when we can purchase his jersey from the team shop? Got my money ready

More little people!
Bring back Ivan Johnson
BIG BODY RODDY
Does the move the needle from play-in team to championship contenders ?
From the 4 minutes of highlights I just watched seems like a solid bench piece
The final piece
Get Roddy to drive downhill until he learns to relax and stroke it. Decent defender and could be a rebounder if he understood that’s what could keep him on someone’s bench.
Tell me how to feel as a slightly higher than casual hawks fan
