thanks! Thank heavens they don't have that for there uniform!

I don't get a chance to see alot of hawks games since I live out here in indiana(and I am not a pacer fan) but they have the former NC players(May,Willimas,Feldon etc) showing a picture of them in there new uniforms and marvin has a yellow one on.Man,those yellow forms are ugly.The Hawks need to get something done about this at least go back to the red uni's when dominque played.Who is the bright guy that thought yellow should be the hawks color doesn't know how to market a team.

Did I use a wrong word "fascination" silly me!

I don't understand BK's fascination with John Edwards.As Walter mentioned I would have gone after Dwayne jones or Jared Holman.At least sign a guy who has a legit chance in the league even though a prospect.A center who can block shots and score is all we really need but other teams seem to get them not the hawks.

Consdiering this will be a weak draft coming up and that the Hawks probably would get a 15-20 1st rounder plus the hawks are lottery protected why not take chance at Darko.We need a big man desperately.We won't get one next year and if we are bad enough in 2007 then we may get one.I don't see that though since the hawks probably should make the playoffs or finish with a decent record enough to keep them from getting Oden.The free agent crop for bigmen is horrendous why not Darko.There was a reason people though highly of him and since he is getting no playing time will never develop.It doesn't take that much nowadays to be a decent center.Look at what some of the centers want today in terms of money.I would love to have Darko and if he is a bust we tried.It is sitting back waiting for a big man to become available which will never happen because big men are so hard to find that that would be the mistake.Al Harrington will not resign with the Hawks .Get something while you can unless you value a 15-20 pick in a weak draft.

Thanks for saving the Hawks Mr Levenson: Its great to see that the owners care about what the fans think of the basketball team.I think for to long most people in the Untied States don't even think there is a basketball team in Atlanta.Being the laughing stock of the league along with the Clippers gets you thinking here we go again another year where the hawks don't do anything in way of player transactions to get a star player here. The signing of JJ will at least make other free agents consider the Hawks.Most players want the money so I hope the Hawks invest in there players wisely.The pieces are coming together in maybe in another year the Hawks can make a run for a division title.It is supposed to be a weak draft and not very many good free agents.The following year 2007 is a bonanza.Hard to tell where the hawks will be but I feel with the new owners for once the Hawk's are going in the right direction.With a sports craze society there are untapped markets and with a good marketing campagn and bringing exciting young players the rebuilding stage is going the right way.People say the hawks will never draw fans well what about the era when dominque wilkins played I believe the hawks had about full capacity most games.It can be done.Evaluating talent is the most important thing and the hawks are putting some pieces finally together.

It is interesting to here that Joe johnson isn't a point guard.Didn't he play that in college? Wasn't Michael Jordan a point guard for one year with the Bulls but we all think of him as a shooting guard? I know it is michael "Superman" jordan but my point is we all want to categorize players when instead some players can play multiple positions.I expect the hawks to resign lue and next yesr I think we get the point guard we are looking for that is pass first shoot second.Childress needs to play well either to move to small forward or be traded IF JJ can't handle point.Childress can do alot of things well and has a more developed game than Marvin or Smooth but one of them will be moved to power forward.

I say wait it out to the draft to get a pure point guard if JJ doesn't work out as expected.Will deal with Childress,Marvin,Smooth at that time.No Marbury he is selfish,not a good team player looks to shoot the ball to much.Your probably saying JJ does to correct but JJ gets his players more involved.I know Marbury has a decent assist rate but other players that have played with him say he is not a team player at least JJ plays quality defense.

how many off guards and small forwards do we need.Maybe this signing means al is going to be traded?

Get this bum outua there! I am ready for the hawks to make some more moves.

I thought they had cap problems even before they resigned korver,dally and now hunter.Makes you wonder if they are doing the right thing.

It is amazing Belkin is getting trashed from almost everyone yet the guy still has guts to contimue fighting his battle.Get a clue Belkin the hawks don't want you just give up!How some people can luck out just because they have money and own a sports franchise without any regard to how well it does is beyond me.Lets get this done so we can get jj in here and move on to other things!

Our prayers have been answered.That tells me stern wants the hawks to succeed.Bring on joe johnson.Looks like Scrooge got screwed!

I am wondering if this is a possiblity signing JJ,Curry and Zaza we already have.Do the hawks have enough cap space for JJ and Curry this of course provided the mess with belkin gets cleaned up.I know it is hard getting back to the NBA and talking basketball because of the fiasco Belkin has created but what kind of team would this be: center 1.Curry,ZaZa backup power forward 2.Harrington,Za Za backup small forward 3.Josh Smith,Marvin Williams shooting guard 4.Childress,Joe johnson point guard 5.Joe Johnson,Salim On paper this team is talented.However defense wins championships.If the hawks make the playoffs more than likely a top point guard will not be coming there way in the draft.Also the JJ matter of playing will be cleared up if he can play against small and big guards.Just a simple diversion from the Belkin problem!

Lets hope so,Stern if he wants the hawks to do well will find a way for Belkin not to have ultimate power!Man,it is amazing how one minority owner can screw up a franchise.
