There is an reason he was picked number 13 overallin 2003. He's not garbage. He's and explosive point guard that can really drive the ball. He's great around the basket and has the passing vision to really become a top 10 pg in the league. Why not he can easily be had for next to nothing. It'll give BK an excuse to admit the speedy mistake and trade him. (We all know BK got too much pride to take responsibility for speedy's bad signing and trade him away) And if Bassy play's horrible or get's in another legal problem so what JUST CUT HIM. It's not like we would have to pay him alot money anyway. He'll just start off in Ivey's old role next season until he proves himself a starter in which I can definatly see him doing for us next year. There's no harm. If he's screw's up then BYE BYE BASSY.

Go here to help me get rid of Billy Fire Billy Knight RIGHT NOW!!!!

Quote: How about staring at the strong possibility of having zero draft picks in the best draft in years? How about having $13M invested in FOUR back up PG's? How about a TOTALLY MEANINGLESS trade for AJ when the freakin season was over for a very early draft pick in round 2? Like we really needed AJ...for an extra 2 wins? Wow, now we decrease our chances of keeping our PHX pick. DUMBASSES. I will definetly add all those points in. Thanks for the Idea. Sorry guys that first post was messed up heres the link to the petiton http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/309994989

Listen you guys I'm faxing a 4-page document of reasons Billy Knight should be fired right over to Bruce Levinson and the Atlanta Spirits office. This is no joke!! I have a exclusive fax number right to the hawks office! This could make a huge difference in the success of the team for year to come. All I need you guys to do is take literally 30 seconds of your time and sign this online petition that will be attached to the letter thats going right to the Atlanta Spirit. Go to This is a HUGE deal !! Make a Difference!!!!!!!!! Make your voice heard!!!! Just sign. This can really make a huge decision if we get a good amount of signatures this letter will really have alot of power to it. Team up with many of the hawks fans from Myspace and Hawksquawk.net that I messaged giving them the same oppotunity. Come on it only takes 30 SECONDS!!! You dont have to be a Hawksquawks member to sign just click on the link!! Heres the latest of the unfinished product. If you have any ideas of what I should Include. Feel Free to let me know. P.S. If more people tell me not bash Soloman I won't ( Im not a big fan of him but some of you are) Dear Mr. Levenson or Atlanta Spirit, I am a dedicated Hawks Fan that is sending you this letter on behalf of Hawksquawk.net, Realgm.com, and other Hawks fans from everywhere. And I as well as many other hawks fans I hate to see the team being so poorly run. I think the team has great upside and potential. That teamed with a great off-season in the summer of 2007 we believe the 4th seed in the playoffs can be reached. But many of us fans don't see our General Manager Billy Knight able to provide us with the great off-season we desperately need to further advance as a winning franchise. Please do give thought in firing Billy Knight. He has not done a good job in our eyes and is turning a lot of us fans away from the team with his horrible decisions. Yes Billy has made some good decisions, but his bad decisions out weight the good ones by far. I have compiled many supporting reasons to back up my disbelief in Billy Knight's capability as the young and upcoming Atlanta Hawks general manager. 1. Billy's obsession with 6''8 - 6''10 players. The idea of a long athletic team is not bad idea to a point. But when it takes the passing of finding a good point guard or other player, it's not worth it. I absolutely love the Josh Smith pick and even the other draft choice Josh Childress. But after getting such a future stud like Smith is (one of the few things Billy has done right) many fans and league insider pondered the choice of Marvin Williams, who is another nice player to have, but as I said earlier it's not worth passing on a need like a point guard. And in that particular 2005 draft, there were many great future all-star point guards to be easily had. On top of that this past year Shelden Williams and Soloman Jones were the next pair of 6''10 and 6''8 players to be chosen. I'll get more into Shelden next but Soloman Jones was a very uncessary pick. I could understand his pick if he was a steal in the second round but he has shown nothing special or anything to look forward to in the future based on his play this season. He may be raw but even if he pans out to be a decent player out the second round, he has no place on a team full at his position. Also with the logjam we already had at Small Forward at the time with Marvin Williams and Josh Smith, to play both studs at the same time one of these players will have to move to power forward. So why draft two Power Forwards that make playing time hard to figure out? A poor choice and a waste of a #5 draft choice by Billy Knight 2. Billy's promise to Shelden Williams Don’t get me wrong Shelden Williams was a decent prospect out of college, at best. But in the opinion of many league insider's, fellow general manager's, and fans at that time he was not worth the fifth pick. And at this point in time he was not worth the fifth pick. Not only was he not worth the fifth pick, he was not a position need at that point in time. As stated in reason one about the playing time problem's it would of created if Shelden wasn't such a bust, Shelden's playing time just would of taken away time from our growing stars (Josh & Marvin) that have much more potential. Even if he was brought in for a specific role he has not done that unless the role I benchwarmer. He is too undersized to play Center, and didn't have the upside or intangibles to play like an undersized bruiser like Ben Wallace. There were many other good guards to Also to promise a guy that you would pick him that you didn't even workout. That in my opinion is just laziness and not doing the job to the best of your abilities. 3. Billy's horrible trades Billy often has the right idea what players to try to get, but he often gets cheated by other General Managers and thinks he's done a good job. I as well as many liked the idea of Joe Johnson coming to the Hawks in the summer of 2005. But in order to obtain him the hawks had to give up a huge piece of their future. Those three draft picks that we lost came back to haunt us. There is a very deep and talented draft as we all know and because of Billy's horrible reputation percieved by others we as a francise were able to be cheated out of trade transaction and unless we either tank (which Im ashamed as a fan to even mention)or get very lucky we will have to miss out on a huge step to becoming a winning team and winning city. 4. Billy's Free Agent Signing's For a young growing upcoming team like the hawks are, signing an often-injured, point guard that can't shoot, that came off the bench for practically his whole career is not good for a young team that needs to save it's capspace for a permanent solution at one of it's big position needs. I'm talking about Speedy Claxton. Speedy nice for a team that is already on it's two feet and is ready to get a good point guard off the bench. He is too often injured to waste a large part of a growing teams capspace to sign to a 4 year deal. That was a huge block of money, that Billy threw away. Speedy is now probably another big useless contract that we will have to force feed to other General Mangers in future trades to get rid of him. Also another bad signing was Lorenzon Wright for two years. This signing just like speedy's eats up a chunk of are money for free agency this year. I can fully understand signing Speedy and Lorenzon to 1-year deals, so that they are not hurting us if we want to sign a great player to match with Joe, J.Smith, and Marvin. But once again Billy's poor judgement of talent and money spending have hurt this franchise. Any gm with the #2 #5 #6 and tons of capspace can create a championship caliber team Look at the Raptors with a simple change at General Manager they are almost a lock to win the Atlantic Division we must do this. I would love to buy season tickets soon but I can't with Billy Knight as the General Manager. It's time for change, please get rid of Billy Knight. GO HAWKS!

Ok Falcon I will definetly make sure that I change these basic errors. I promise that the finished product will be posted for you guys to read. Thank you

Im just pissed cause I expected alot more from the hawks fans. And after working so hard on trying to get this petition up and informing the realgm hawks forum, messaging basically everyone from the Hawks official myspace, then you guys. Im tired as hell and expected everyone to support me fully. Thats why im so angry right now

OH MY GOD AHF can you just sign your name as anonymous then. I just explained that Im sending a letter to the owners your making things so difficult either sign or don't sign. If you dont want to sign just backoff and dont sign thats it I DONT NEED YOUR OPINION ON EVERYTHING its a simple question DO YOU WANT BILLY FIRED? Thats it just sign if you do. Damn. SO fu**in difficult

ha thanks walter

Alright fine I will give you the unfinished product very undone all Im gonna here is crap on it cause its not finished or spell checked but whatever here: Please listen, I am a dedicated Hawks Fan. And I as well as many other hawks fans I hate to see the team being so poorly run. I think the team has great upside and potential, and with a great off-season in the summer of 2007 I think the 4th seed in the playoffs can be reached.

Also to promise a guy that you would pick him that you didn't even workout. That in my opinion is just laziness and not doing the job to the best of your abilities.

^^^^^^ ^^^^^^

how can you possibly deefend Billy after the Shelden pick blowing up in our faces? Are you related to him or something?

give me a year or two and I'll catch up

We mostly all agree he sucks so lets do something about it. ( lol im not trying to be annoying with this but) Please check out my very important thread. VERY IMPORTANT

I agree with alot that you're saying mac daddy it also the owners faults but we can't get the owner fired. And the owners never influenced him in picking Shelden Williams without working him out did they. No, that was all the retardedness of Billy. So thats why we need to get rid of this guy before he make another dumb decision in the off-season that keeps out of the playoffs again.

thanks but i really want this to happen. I hate seeing the hawks lose. lol.

His retarded substitution patterns. Please check out my very important thread. VERY IMPORTANT
