The recent acquisition of Glenn Robinson has most Hawks fans stoked, wired, or simply giddy.
In the current Hawks Front Office poll here on RealGM, most people (over 90%) believe the Hawks are definitely playoff bound, and some feel like the Hawks are the best in the East.
In fact the current roster got many of us to thinking, is this the best Atlanta Hawks roster ever?
And, where exactly does that get the team?
OK, so after they moved to Atlanta, the Hawks haven?t held any championship trophies.
In fact, they haven?t gotten out of the second round of the playoffs since they came south from St. Louis.
But they have been filled with many playoff teams, a bushel of 50 win teams, and had some terrific rosters filled with memorable players.
So is it too much of a loser, pathetic idea to compare these eras and see if the current roster matches up, even if none of them has reached the promised land or gotten close to see it?
Naaaaaah.
So, with the help of ?The Hawks Show? (shown on many WB affiliates throughout the southeast?if you aren?t getting it for this next season, call and demand it!) host, Bill Shanks, we decided to break it down.
