Atlanta Hawks Team Preview

The NBA Preseason has just begun and I know that I am really looking forward to the new season with so many expectations.  A year after the Miami Heat and Lebron James won the NBA Championship there have been many moving parts throughout free agency.  Because of all the moving parts the balance has become equal when you consider both leagues as a whole.  To get you ready for the beginning of the season I am going to do a team by team preview.  I will go in alphabetical starting with the Atlanta Hawks.  The roster for the Hawks had very little turnover so they should be just as competitive as they were last year.  Here is the Hawks roster.




  Devin Harris




Al Horford

The toughest part of the Atlanta Hawks season this year will be to find someone who can replace the points and leadership abilities of Joe Johnson who was traded to the New Jersey Nets (now the Brooklyn Nets)  I personally think that this Hawks team will be a very good team again because of the talent on the Offensive and defensive side of the ball.  I would have to project them as the 7th or 8th seed in the East.

The next team that I will preview will be the Boston Celtics!!
