There are really only two options that I can foresee happening: Collins returning on a significant salary or the Hawks trading him in a splashy move.This is why you force their hand to either make him a long term player for them or make them deal with you by signing him up with a max no trade clause contract. You then get to deal for him in a position of strength if they decide he isn't a long term player for their team and they make a pennies on the dollar trade for him. That is why they need to decide now if he is a long term player for their team and trade him at the deadline or keep him and match all offers, including a no trade clause one.
