Shaq and LeBron are out. No one knows who will play for the Hawks. Is this game worth a preview? Certainly not. Is it worth a watch? Of course. This is summer league in the regular season. This is a possible 30 minutes from Jeff Teague. This is 20 plus minutes from Mario freaking West. That guy might get a double double.

I just hope they run like crazy. I hope both teams score 120 points. I hope Mario West fouls the crap out of Anderson Varejao. I hope we have Hubie Brown and Zaza Pachulia plays the entire game.

But really how great is it that the Hawks are playing a meaningless game for something positive? Ok I can't help but answer. It is great. Just great. 

Go Hawks!
