Top 50 players in Atlanta Hawks History!

[Diesel]

Check it out...

 

Something is wrong when you have Shareef #30.. and Marvin #24..

 

 

Something is wrong when you have Deke #19 and Horf #18.

 

 

Something is wrong when you have Josh Smith ahead of Joe Johnson.

 

ARE YOU KIDDING??

 

Maybe Hawksquawk ought to revise this list.

[capstone21]

Maybe people can come up witha top 20.

I can't really choose anyone before '85 since that was when I started watching

I will probably do my top 20 since the nique era

When you look at players from years ago, you must ask, "How would

they do if they were in their prime and on today's Hawk team?"

Can you honestly come up with 50?

[bird_dirt]

BeBe and Jordan Crawford HAVE to be on that list!

Is this based on their contributions to the Hawks?

As much as possible.  I know that Reggie Theus was a very good player for the Bulls, but his time as a Hawk was meh...  Same for Walker.

Kevin Willis has to be in the top 10.  When Nique was out the guy practically avr 20 and 20. I think he even had a 30/30 game or two.

You're right.  He was a walking double double...  Probably 7,

[NJHAWK]

I remember Moses was supposed to be that piece that got us over the top. He was too old by then. He could still produce but he really slowed down the offense and got the ball stolen from him too dam much. As it turned out we were much better with Tree Rollins.

Actually, Moses was effective but at the risk of Dominique's productivity.  The other thing is that he didn't play a lick of defense.  Koncak was more effective.

He was here 3 years. I remember the visions of his last year under Weiss when his game really declined so much that Koncak started over him. Your right though his 1st year he was his dominant self avr. 20 and 10, his second year he declined a little bit but he was still effective.

[DJlaysitup]

I would give Jordan Crawford a vote...and definitely Salim and that point guard that didn't do very good but was a lady killer and is now a coach...well...hell...it IS 50 - and we have only had a few really good players.

[DJlaysitup]

P.S. - OK -

Top 50 Hawks players who are also top 50 in the league all-time.

Nique*

*actually not voted top 50 all time but should get consideration due to his announcing work with Bob.

...otherwise - zero...point...zero

I saw Selmo Beaty play for the Hawks in St Louiis. Must have been 1965?

[ATLSmith]

What I want to know is, why did Diesel only rank 32 players?

I'm guessing since Nique's rookie year was 32 years ago.
