We all know where this current team is headed, its like a broken record that only repeats the same part over and over and over again. The Hawks must make a move to shake things up so they can take the next step. Will they continue to pay him top dollar or let him go for nothing if they want to improve they must trade him for valuable pieces. Also, Smith only has one more year left on his contract so after the 2012-13 the Hawks will be at another crossroads. With Smith gone the Hawks will be forced to play Horford at the 4, which instantly will make them a little better.īecause of Smith’s talent it will be hard for the Hawks to pull the trigger but sometimes less is more. Smith is very versatile but we all know this team is just a solid team that will never turn the corner. Firefighters are battling heavy flames and smoke at a home in Natick. The only person you can trade that has value is Josh Smith. The problem they will have completing the task is Johnson will be Damn near impossible to trade with 4 years left on his max deal. These two players would be who I build my team around in a perfect world. I personally think Teague and Horford if they can play him at the 4 and get a real 5 aka center on the team to help them. The Hawks did draft Jeff Teague a few years back a promising young PG. I already talked about my man Marvin Williams in a post a few weeks ago, he’s a 3 in he’s playing the right position but just imagine them having a star PG (Paul or Williams) besides him, this might be a different post. Al Horford who I believe is the best big man on the team is playing the 5 when he is clearly a 4. Josh Smith the athletic forward is playing the 4 spot when his style fits more of a 3 skill set minus the 3 point marksmanship. Our goal is to develop skilled and knowledgeable hockey players. If your Joe you take the money I understand that wholeheartedly but the organization just locked themselves in a mediocre team for the next 6 years, well 4 year since he’s played out two of the years.īesides being locked in for the Johnson contract the Hawks have a lot of the same pieces which is why the puzzle doesn’t fit.

This team is good enough to consistently get 4th or 5th seeds in the playoffs every year but if this franchise wants to cut the wheel it must blow this team up like Ray Lewis reading a dive play.įresh off of losing a 6 game series to the Celtics which they had home court advantage, Rondo was suspended for a game and Pierce had a bum knee.
