Clifford Robinson was hesitant. He was already 31 years old and what he needed most was the security of a long-term deal.

A one-year contract was not suitable for him.

If he didn't perform well next season, given his age, his income might continue to decline.

At this time, Pete Babcock approached him.

The Hawks didn't have the salary cap space to sign Robinson, and couldn't even afford to pay $1 million.

However, he proposed a plan: sign first and then trade with the Trail Blazers at a low price, so Clifford Robinson could keep his Bird rights. Although Robinson would earn less this season, next season the Hawks would gamble on re-signing Clifford Robinson using his Bird rights, offering him a contract of at least four years, which would last until he was 36.

"The captain never skimps on anyone who has contributed to the team." Babcock told Robinson.
