Sort of what we already knew, Silas on Josh Smith:

"Steal at 17?

Hawks guard Josh Smith was a steal at No. 17 in the June draft. Since moving into the starting lineup, he's averaging 10.3 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.9 blocks.

''He's been awesome,'' Silas said. ''He's really athletic. He's shown that. He's concentrating on rebounding and shot blocking. He has a chance to be really good. They made a smart choice there.''

The 6-9, 225-pound Oak Hill Academy product had an NBA season-high 10 blocks against Dallas on Dec. 18.

''He's capable,'' Silas said. ''He has great timing and leaping ability. He has a little nastiness to him.'' The Morning Journal/Ohio

Also, James said the Hawks are much improved over the last time the Cavs played them. Many in Cleveland are saying they are a much better team than their record indicates.

Here is to the Hawks to continue improving this year and to continue losing. We still need that franchise Big Man, that only a high draft pick can provide.
