The additions of Jamal Crawford and Jeff Teague gives the Hawks a deeper back court. The Hawks lack size, but are a pretty good defensive team because of their quickness and athleticism. Josh Smith has all star potential, if he plays within himself, shoots too many outside jumpers and must improve his handles. Marvin Williams has shown progress every season in his career thus far and if he can take his game to the next level, the Hawks can be dangerous. Jamal Crawford can plain score the basketball, it will be intersting to see how he does in the 6th man role and how hungry he will be since hes never played in a playoff game.

Key Additions: Jamal Crawford, Joe Smith, Jeff Teague

Key Subtractions: Solomon Jones, Speedy Claxton, Acie Law, Ronald Murray

Projected Starting Lineup: Mike Bibby/ Joe Johnson/ Marvin Williams/ Josh Smith/ Al Horford
