And just the fact that he's not taking some of those weird... long threes that we're used to seeing him do. They've happened on occasion. You think of the game winner against the Jazz. You think of Thursday night, he had a logo three. And so the fact that he's kind of trying to evolve as a player lends itself to what the Hawks' mission is in this current front office. So...

If anything, I could see him opting out of that player option that he has in that final year. But if anything, just what I'm observing, it seems like he's locked into what they're trying to do. And I think I would give it probably one more year before I really say the future is murky, but I'm... I don't know. I don't want to put words into people's mouth.

This is all just complete and utter speculation, but just based on what I've seen and observed and listened to what Trey has said when he speaks to us.

Yeah, I think the biggest weakness is they really should be adding some more depth at the five. You think about the injuries that have happened. Clint was down for nine games with back spasms. Larry Nance is out for potentially the rest of the season, even the postseason with that knee injury that he suffered against Orlando a couple games ago. And Onyeka has been playing out of his mind, but...

They really do need a solid backup big if they're really leaning into Onyeko Kongu as the starting center. It's just offensively, the production at the five off the bench has not been great. And that's just not Clint's strong suit. He's great defensively.

They've missed what he's been able to do defensively, but offensively, they really need that extra punch in the paint, especially when those shots haven't been falling from outside. They need somebody that they can go to, maybe lean on Trey's Strength as a pick and roll facilitator a little bit more.
