how long until he replaces the bum? Feel like it's going in when he shoots. With Clarkson it's the opposite

Any mention of the Hawks and trades, of course, is prone to thrust Collins’ name into the conversation. A report that the Suns have interest in Collins was forcefully shot down by Phoenix-based radio host and insider John Gambadoro, but league sources confirmed [URL="https://marcstein.substack.com/p/nba-trade-notes-on-a-sunday?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email"]Utah is among the teams to express interest in the Atlanta forward[/URL].

After the organization dealt its prized guard (Donovan Mitchell) and rim protector (Rudy Gobert), Utah Jazz point guard Mike Conley expected to hear about the franchise making another significant move. “I was just like everybody else,” Conley said. [URL="https://www.nba.com/news/mike-conley-relishing-jazz-strong-start"]“I was waiting to get the phone call that I was going somewhere else.”[/URL]

Has the front office offered any more clarity to you since the season started? [URL="https://www.nba.com/news/mike-conley-relishing-jazz-strong-start"]Mike Conley: It doesn’t change anything. From my perspective, I’m going to keep doing what I’m doing. Justin [Zanik] and Danny [Ainge] have been very transparent with everything.[/URL] If something pops up, they’ll let me know. But right now, I’m just focusing on the team. I love it. It’s a great organization. Ryan [Smith] is great. Danny is great. Will Hardy has been awesome. So, we’ll see.

What explains the strong start? [URL="https://www.nba.com/news/mike-conley-relishing-jazz-strong-start"]Mike Conley: The vibe around here has been a lot different than any team I’ve been on.[/URL] We got such a deep team. We have guys that all have individual goals with wanting to prove the world wrong about them and how we all can improve. We all have this dog and grit about us. You put that together in a pot and mix it up, and you’re seeing what the result is. It’s been a lot of fun to be a part of it.
