Making demands is all the rage now. Chris Paul, Rudy Fernandez, Carmelo Anthony and Jamal Crawford have all made some kind of request to their nike air max current team whether it be a trade, a contract extension or both.
So that means that Crawford very likely is on the market. Cunningham reports at least three teams have asked about Crawford's availability. But here's the twist: Those inquiries were made before the pay-me-or-trade me move. The Hawks said thanks but no thanks and moved on. So if nike air max 24-7 general manager Rick Sund decides trading Crawford is his move, he's got at least three lines he can ring to try and re-establish negotiations.
Jamal Crawford informed the Hawks last week that he wanted an extension before the new CBA or he wants a trade out of Atlanta. You know, air max 2009 the classic pay-me-or-trade-me move. And as of now, it's looking like an extension for Crawford isn't the Hawks top priority. Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution says Rick Sund plans on focusing on Al Hordford before anything else. The Hawks can offer Horford an extension that starts in 2011-12 and is worth up to $82 million over five years. The deadline for a deal is Oct. 31.
The Hawks want to keep Crawford. But after shelling out major money to Joe Johnson ($120 million to be exact) and now with Horford's extension coming, Crawford is getting squeezed. The more you win, the more players want. Crawford knows he was a big part of Atlanta's success and he's not pumped watching his teammates get paychecks while he has to sit and wait for the new CBA to potentially hurt him. The ball is in Sund's court and by the sound of it, if he can't reach an nike air max 2010 agreement with Crawford, he already has a couple teams to play ball with.
