We went into the Redmont Zone with Charles Barkley on Dukes & Bell as we talked about the Hawks-Bucks series, and what should the Hawks do about John Collins contract situation?
Barkley said the thinks Collins has earned a new contract with the Hawks.
“I think he’s played well enough to earn his money, now you going to make decisions on how much to pay him,” Barkley said. “He’s proven to be a terrific player, he’s inconsistent, no question about that, but you got to say to yourself, do we wanna lose that guy?”
“I think there’s a resounding, nah we can’t lose that guy, he’s played well enough. Everybody in the NBA is making a lot of money now in fairness, everybody, even guys can’t play are making a lot of money. So I think John Collins, he’s played his way into a new contract.”
