I heard the show and it was Curry that they were talking about. Big time center my ass. The guy average what 5 rebounds a game. A man with a wooden leg would get you at least 6.5.

Since we are a weak rebounding club why not have Chill start at the 3 he is the best rebounder on the team!!!

Why must we always trade our best player. I think that is why the franchise has been in the shape it is in for the last decade or so.Here are a list of superstarstar players that we have traded away (I may have forgotten a name or two): Dominique Wilkins Steve Smith Dikembe Mutombo Jason Terry Rasheed Wallace Antoine Walker Shareef Abdul Rahim Stephen Jackson (he maybe a stretch but he was on his way) The Paul Gasol Pick (he would have been our best player for sure) and now everyone wants to trade Al Harrington. WTF is going on here!!!!

I feel that these group of players may be the most effective bunch we could put on the floor at one time pg-Boris Diaw (can guard the opposing 2 guard) sg-Salim Stoudamire (can guard the opposing guard) SF-Josh Childress PF-Josh Smith/Marvin Williams/ C-Al Harrington/Josh Smith This would support our three forward system. We would play alot of zone defesnse. Maybe Marvin can play some of the 2 guard since he can shoot the ball so well and has no post game. The funny thing about this is that Childress has proven that he is our best Small forward but yet he is the two guard??? Maybe Salim has some pg skills that we aren't aware of. This is going to be an interesting season to say the least?? I think that we will win at least 25 games next season. What do you guys think about this lineup!!!

Don't be surprised if we get him. If there is a desire to trade Al our lineup could be this: pg-#13 pick, Free agent sg-Gerald Green SF- Josh Childress PF-Josh Smith C-#13 pick (if not used on PG), Free Agent If you trade Al then we could feel in the blank with whatever we get get for him. If not we could run the Three Forward Theory with Josh Childress instead of Marvin Williams.Josh Childress is probably the best rebounder on our team and he needs to be in the frontcourt to rebound. Gerald Green is alot better shooter that Childress. I just hope that we can get somebody in free agency. Anyone think that this won't be a possible scenario. I really don't feel that we will keep the 2nd pick or Marvin Williams.

I like his game but he is going to need minutes this year. Do we have an option on him for the 4th season. I personally think that we can make him something special. Should we give him one more season here in atlanta??

I really don't know which mold we are trying to follow here.

Sure an undersized center can get the job done on most nights but his theory out having Smith, Williams, and Harrington in the lineup would be crap unless we can accomplish one of these three things: 1. We sign or draft and PG who can shoot the lights out. 2. CHillz improves his outside shot enough where the opponents respect it. 3. We accomplish both 1 and 2. A shooter would open the floor up big time and then we could use could the system more effectively.

Why does almost everyone seem to think that Smoove is going to be so much better than Chillz. I am not saying that it won't be the case but did anyone notice the improvement of Chillz from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. I think that right now CHillz is a much better player than Smith but it seems as if Smith gets all of the love on this site. I know that he won the Dunk competition and is a highlight waiting to happen but don't crap over CHillz. I think that he is going to surprise everyone before it is over with. I like Smith as well but with his Skill set Chillz can easily become a grant hill/pippen type of player. He does need to work on his jumper especially playing the two but we all know that he is playing out of position and would be one of the best SF in the league if they left him there.

Damn I was hoping that we could have got our hands on him. Will the Knicks have any decent big men on their team next season. DAMN DAMN DAMN!!!!

Who's to say that Marvin Williams won't be a bust. I think that is maybe 60/40 tha we won't bust but don't you guys think that we get players who have a defined position. I read that someone thinks that he can play the two. If Bogut falls to number two that would make things so much simpler for us. We don't need another Small forward playing out of position.

My two cents: Why role the dice again when you know what you already have. I mean if J-Smooth never becomes a allstar he still will be a productive player so why take a chance on the fourth pick. J-smooth and J-chillz are hopefully here to stay.

I am 27 and I have been a Hawks fan all my life. GO HAWKS!!!

Are we going to target the same people regardless of who we draft or will we let the draft dictate who we try to sign.

I forgot Walker but I don't consider Payton a former Hawk. We could have contended in the east with half of those players. Here is my lineup (I know that some of these players were traded for each other). I also forgot Dikembe Mutombo. Bob Sura Jason Terry Stephen Jackson Rasheed Wallace Dikembe Mutumbo/Nazr This is a playoff lineup for sure. Top 3-4 seed in the east, may could have won it all....wait a minute I got ahead of my self for a minute there. That would be our best lineup in the last ten years for sure.

Jason Terry Demarr Johnson Nazr Mohammed Glenn Robinson Jim Jackson Alan Henderson Bob Sura Jon Barry Rasheed Wallace Anthony Johnson Stephen Jackson Damn not a bad squad!!!!

You guys do realize that BK may try to resign Reef. Would you rather have him or Harrington???

His numbers aren't that overally impressive. Hell Drobs almost put up better numbers that Stromile Swift did. He is not worth but maybe 6 or 7 mill a year tops. Some of you guys act as if he is a dominant big man or something. He has been in the league for five years and isn't going to get any better. He is not even a center for crying out loud. The last thing we need is another swingman on our team who is a tweener. Let's just sign Kwame Brown. Swift was just playing for a contract ala Eric Dampier (probably the same people who wanted him wants Swift). We need people are are the positions that we need. We don't need a rail thin PF who can play alittle center, we don't need a SF/SG who can play a little point. WE NEED A REAL PG AND A REAL CENTER!! DAMN IT IS THAT SIMPLE!!! GO HAWKS!!!!

What do you think!!!!!!!!

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedi.../content.1.html I am starting to warm up to the Deron William's guy if we can't draft Bogut. I say that the only reason we should get Marvin Williams is if we trade AL for the sake of filling either our point guard need or centerneed. I think that smooth can play power foward.

That way we could go ahead and draft Bogut and here would be our starting lineup if we don't sign any free agents Crawford ChildressDiaw DiawChildress Josh Smith Bogut Crawford is offensively minded so having him and Diaw in the back court together wouldn't hurt. I am not a crawford fan but it is obviously the we are going to have to move Harrington. We need to fill our needs in trading him. This would probably only work if he are to get Bogut. If we draft a pg then we would probably need to trade AL for a big man in a snt.

I say yes because he can back up three positions (maybe even the 4) that is rare in this league.

damn he had 20 pts, 9 ass., 2 blocks and played 20 minutes. Like i said before he needs minutes. He is probably or most versatile player but Woddson needs to let him play.

JT/JC/JS would have been a nice starting combo in retrospect. I am not saying that we would be in the playoffs but we may have been pretty darn close. Damn what could have been???

we lost but once again Josh Childress looked good. Donta looked good tonight as well.
