Hawks Roster, FA'S, & Europe Rights!

[oubobcat]

Current Roster: Al Horford(F-C), Joe Johnson(G), Josh Smith(F), Maurice Evans(G), Randolph Morris(F-C), Jeff Teague(G), Jamal Crawford(G)

Free Agents: Mike Bibby(G), Flip Murray(G), Zaza Pachulia©, Thomas Gardener(G), Othello Hunter(F), Solomon Jones(F), Mario West(G), Marvin Williams(F)

Europe Player Rights: Sergiy Gladyr(G), David Anderson©, Cenk Akyol(G-F), Josh Childress(G-F)

Free agent wise we need to keep Murray, Pachulia, Gardner, Hunter, & Williams. Williams, Murray, & Pachulia are solid role players. Gardner & Hunter both have potential to be contributers but they need another year to develop! They should bring over Anderson he could be a solid contributer and Gladyr is iffy because he needs more time to develop, but he has potential. After that we should sign a solid PF because we still need depth at that position!

Don't forget about Cenk Akyol. I haven't heard much about him lately.

I was also wondering about Cenk Aykol. What are the chances any or all of these players (Aykol, Gladyr and Anderson) ever get to Atlanta? And, another stupid question - If it is so hard (for whatever reason) to get these foreign players to the states (especially Atlanta) why do the Hawks keep drafting them? Why not just draft US player (a Bird in the Hand is Worth Two In The Bush?)?

Anderson should be brought over and he wants to play in the nba but when atlanta switched gm's he kinda got screwed. he was about to come over but the new gm said we need another year to evaluate him so it prob wont happen. Aykol is never really talked about so he prob wont come over and Gladyr in prob 2 years will come over!

Aske the Spurs as well. They do it all the time.
