Wow, Josh Smith signs an offer sheet with the Memphis Grizzlies for 5 years and $58M. The Hawks have 7 days to match. In my mind, this should be a simple deal for the Hawks to match. I mean you've lost Childress and this deal isn't that much worse than the deal that Deng was offered last year (5 yrs, $55M). Can you get a bargain at $58M? If so, I think this is it. This kid will have to continue to work on his game, but he can get you 17pts, 9 rebs, 4 blks, and more a game. He's a live body, and they'll just have to work on his attitude. This is a good deal regardless of who is paying the money.
