Squawkers Hawksquawk Posted March 1, 2011 Squawkers Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Denver–Some quick pregame notes . . . GM Rick Sund said the team is unlikely to add any of the waived vets. Doing so would push the team’s payroll over or near the luxury-tax line even when accounting for the prorating of minimum salaries. Under the CBA, the prorating also is affected by a myriad of factors including the record of the team that signs the player. If the Hawks do decide to add a vet they would likely be looking for a shooter. Sund also said that after not trading Jamal Crawford’s expiring contract the Hawks would attempt to re-sign him: “I’ve said from Day One I’m a big fan of Jamal. Once we figure out what the new [CBA] rules are we will do everything in our power to re-sign him.” Kirk Hinrich (calf) is a game-time decision. (UPDATE: Hinrich is out.) He shot baskets before the game but hit the trainer’s table before I could catch up with him. L.D. is starting Jeff Teague alongside J.J., Marvin, Josh and Al. Mike Bibby’s buyout was the buzz in Atlanta’s locker View the full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
