Has anybody checked Cenk Akyol on youtube. He looks like an all rounder. Correct me if am wrong.

Just read the post about Marvin…. is this confirmed by Marvin’s party or the Hawks front office?

bigdave

his game ( Barns ) would fit perfectly with the hawks, he a consistent 3 point shooter, who gets up and down the floor, and he plays nagging ( kind of like a fly in your face ) defense.

Marvin Williams have all opted to re-sign with the Hawks for the long-term.

Williams’ contract looks as though it will be five years for $40 million dollars, which breaks down to around eight million dollars a season (though the details of the contract have not been released). Given the fact Ben Gordon and Anderson Varejao were able to get $50 million dollar deals from the Pistons and Cavs, re-signing a rising star like Williams for $40 million is a bargain.

About Orlando, I agree there’ll definitely be some chemistry issues with all the changes they made. Most noteably losing Turkoglu, whom they were effective running their offense thru. Overall though, I think they have more talent now than they did last year. Dwight Howard was the only bruiser type they had last year, and now they have added Bass.
This is first time Vince Carter will have ever played with a dominant post player, so it will be interesting. Rashard Lewis is switching back to his natural 3 spot, which will create plenty of mismatches. The Ryan Anderson kid is a lot better than he is getting credit for. They still have a gang of 3 pt shooters they can deploy whenever. We will just have to see what happens though; guaranteed to be interesting. I sound like i’ve become a magic fan, but just being real about it.

I.Mus, lol. Rasho is OK, he’s just kinda old. I’drather go with youth. Someone not too old that we can build aound.

bigdave, I hear ya, still, I think he would be a nic backup to Matvin for about 2.5 mill.
