Any word on who will fill out the roster?

Has anyone heard anything on who we may pick up to fill out the team? I think Justin Williams and Jackie Butler would both be excellent additions to the frontcourt.

I was a bit surprised that we didn't get Williams back in the deal but the only way we could have gotten him would be if we had included Salim, Mario, or Solomon so I'm going to assume that BK values those players above Williams and if that's the case then I doubt he would sign him and even though I would like Williams I would rather us spend the money on a veteran big and then after 30 days hopefully Lo will be brought back as well.

Wow and how's this for a first. On the ESPN Trade Machine it has the Hawks listed cap room in the negatives for the first time since BK started cleaning house.

I have them about $300K under the cap, but granted that doesn't include the minimum salary player they'll add Monday.

The more I read about Justin Williams, the more I think he duplicates Solomon. I think a bulkier big might be a better option...

Williams is much thicker than Solo at about 260 pounds. He has the potential to be more of a banger than Solo.

Ahhh...Bibby had a trade kicker.

Thanks, Dolfan.

Hawks have twelve guys on their roster so they just need to pick up one man.

If Justin Williams was cut, why not just sign him for our 13th?

Don't thank me, thank your recruiter!

Seriously though I don't do the cap crunching that you are famous for, I just caught that on ESPN and since I know that programmers never make mistakes I knew it had to be right
