Least Favorite Hawks Alltime

[Johnnybravo4]

Blatant copycat of the thread below

1. Royal Ivey

2. Ed Gray

3. Big Dog

4. Reggie Theus

5. Jon Koncak

[BornandDieHawks]

I have to go with I. Rider because his deal crippled us for years.

[Jdawgflow]

Isaiah Rider

Ed Gray

...that's enough, my head is already starting to hurt.

[Dejay]

Danny Manning (didn't want to be here from the second the Nique trade was made; was on the first plane back to the west coast after they were eliminated by Indiana)

Isaiah Rider (we all know the story on this one)

Jim Jackson (clubhouse cancer/complainer; its no small wonder why he's been on about 56 teams since leaving Ohio State)

Boris Diaw (sandbagged on his talent and whined like a 4-year old here, then played balls out in Phoenix)

Other dishonorable mentions are...

Adam Keefe

Doug Edwards

Ed Gray

Jon Koncak

Glen Robinson

Ennis Whatley

[sinctybldh]

1. Jon Koncak

2. Ken Norman

3. Adam Keefe

4. Doug Edwards

5. Isiah Rider

On the waiting list:

Shelden Williams

[gsuteke]

Alan Henderson baby!

[GoDawgs21]

Why isnt Priest "I should have been a Rabbi" Lauderdale not getting any love here. But my all time lest favorite is John "I lost my" Koncack. Why?

Drafted 5th over all in 1985 she never really came to be and look at who was passed over:

Chris Mullin

Detlef Schrempf

Charles Oakley

Karl Malone

Blair Rasmussen (who still ended up here, and should be on this list)

Joe Dumars

A.C. Green

Terry Porter

This draft did net us Sabyonis. Wait how did that work out for us, Damn't again.

Jon Koncak compiled 11 comical season in the NBA, averaging 4.5 points and 4.9 rebounds for his career and topping 6 points per game just one of those seasons -- his ROOKIE season. Adding insult, Atlanta inked Koncak to an absurd 6-year/$13 million dollar contract after the 1989 season to keep him from signing with rival Detroit.

1. Diaw

2. Hendu

3. I. Rider

4. Jeff Shepperd

5. Alexander Volkov

i liked Ed Gray because i could laugh at him nonstop b/c his head looked like a tennis ball.

and i like jon Koncack because he came out of the locker room during halftime to get me off the rim after Harry lifted me up to dunk it. I was scared when i looked down.

haha if you get to do that as a child that's the stuff that makes you a Hawks' fan for life

[gheorghe]

1-JON KONTRACT ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$)

2-DANNY MANNING (THE WORST TRADE EVER)

3-ALAN HENDERSON (I DON'T KNOW HE IS STILL AROUND THE NBA)

4-JOHN EDWARDS (AN INSULT FOR THE FANS)

5-SERGUEI BAZAREVICH (JUST FOR HIS WEIRD MOUSTACHE)

MANY OTHER GREATS DIDN'Y QUALIFY BECAUSE THESE ONES ARE THE VERY BEST OF THE WORST

[Packfill]

1. Big Dog

2. Rider

3. Kontract

[CBAreject]

Just kidding. Snoop was OK for 2 years. Here's my list, headed by "Franchise" Henderson

1. Alan Henderson

2. Isaiah Rider

3. Glenn Robinson

4. Adam Keefe

5. Jon Koncak

Honorable Mention: Chris Crawford

[Dejay]

Alan Henderson definitely makes my list. Talk about corporate criminals; he stole tens of millions to spend half the season in Armani suits every year. No wonder why the Hawks have $$$ issues.

Adding to the list....

John Bagley

Ken Norman

Rumeal Robinson (top-5 in my book as well)

Roy Marble (should've drafted his college teammate, B.J. Armstrong)

Chris Washburn (a true waste of talent)

Roshown McLeod (would tease you with flashes, then get hurt, tease you with flashes, then get hurt, tease you...)

Crawford! I loved Crawford, he just couldnt stay healthy...

How about Cal Bowdler???????

[Dejay]

He makes the list with a bullet. The epitome of what was so wrong with the NBA a few years ago. Tons of athleticism, with the basketball instincts/IQ of my 2-year old daughter. I didn't help that he had no shot from outside whatsoever; it was a miracle that he didn't crack the backboard with that shot of his. He made Childress's jumper look like Del Curry's in comparison.

WOW, you guys just picked the two most sympathetic players in Atlanta Hawks history.

[Yeti]

1. Henderson

2. Manning

3. Koncak

4. Rider

Lots of other disappointments, but these guys were so hyped and were the biggest flops. They killed the franchise.

[Popeye]

1.Hendu

2.Big Dog

3.Bowdler

4.Emanuel Davis

5.Glover

[CBAreject]

Ooooooh. E-mail has to be on the list. What a complete joke that was when Pete Babcock signed him as the starting PG to "complete the team".

Kukoc

SAR

Ratliff

JT

Davis

That team was supposed to go places. The only reason Babcock wanted Davis was that he was a "big PG" to offset JT.

[Plainview1981]

Alan Henderson

Jason Terry

Shareef

Big Dog
