not exactly. A transition tag is not nearly as costly to overcome as a franchise tag. This just means the Hawks can match any offer to Hutchinson.

It also means that if you sign him, it doesnt cost you draft picks if seattle doesnt match. let the bidding begin! Run up the hawks cap.

ramming speed to all
