There was a report this morning suggesting the Hawks will take back multiyear contracts for their expiring guys if it gets them better assets. They still seem to be focused on accumulating draft picks, which isn't the worst idea -- they've drafted fairly well, and all those extra picks could come in handy if they want to make a big trade at some point.
Would be surprised if they move Prince -- his age/contract fits the rebuilding timeline.

What are the Hornets thinking deadline time? Can't imagine they will sell, because they think they will be in the playoffs or at least compete to get there

Think their ideal move would be packaging a big contract + Kaminsky in a deal that doesn't make them any worse this season (so they can still push for the playoffs) any gives them more flexibility in the summer, when they'll want to try to make a splash to convince Kemba he should stay.
Wow, that was a quick hour. Thanks for all the questions, guys! Sorry I couldn't get to them all.

We'll be doing this again for the next two Fridays, and then maybe once more the week of the deadline. See you next week!
