Amount of wins for hawks.
I say 38 win area. Al Horford can make them better enough to be 35- 38 wins from say the 20s last yr.

Re: Amount of wins for hawks.
If they're healthy this year I'll put them at 40-42.

Re: Amount of wins for hawks.
I did not realize that a 5 game improvement from a year ago would be such an outlandish thought.
Unlikely? Perhaps.

Re: Amount of wins for hawks.
I am not comfortable at all with putting all of the PG hopes on Acie Law. I think at best they will be a .500 team. If things go wrong, next year is probably time to blow everything up and rebuild.

They're not. Like most teams the Hawks offensive set distributes ballhandling chores amongst multiple players. All Law really has to do is get the ball upcourt and into JJ's hands to initiate the set. The question is how many games does JJ play this year. If he stays healthy the Hawks are capable of being a .500 team. If not they're probably going to land in the 35-38 range.

Re: Amount of wins for hawks.
Hawks I say can be 3rd in their division.
I say first will be Washington, 2nd will be Orlando barely getting 42 wins.
Then Atlanta at 39-43 or so. Charlotte will be like 38 wins or tied with the hawks and Miami will be around 32 wins I think this yr. Anythings possible.

Re: Amount of wins for hawks.
Yeah, I know, if you guys miss the postseason you'll "miraculously" beat the odds and land in the top 3. And probably end up with Mayo (making you guys monsters in the East).

That wasn't what I was talking about. But I appreciate the idea. I'll suggest it to David Stern next time I see him

Re: Amount of wins for hawks.
I say 35 wins. If healthy, they could possibly push for 40 and maybe contend for a playoff spot (doubtful).
