Yeah, the Clippers signed Mann to that extension, regretted it pretty quickly, and then were able to get off of it and get assets. I think the Hawks overreacted to how bad Bogdanovich looked in the first half of last season. I mean, he wasn't feeling great physically. And, like, he was really struggling.

he looked better physically at the end of the year with the Clippers was even like getting offensive rebounds in the Denver series. And I actually talked to him in LA. He's like, yeah, I feel a lot better. And so I think the, yeah, that was a great trade by the Clippers to get off of a, a mistake. I think man can do some things for Atlanta. Like he's a good shooter.

If he has his feet set in the corner, he can play some D play with some energy, but the Hawks, the way they're set up right now, they need more creation than he can give them. And so he's, he wasn't that productive for them and he still got three more years at 15 and a half.
