Hawks Insider: Make or break season
When the head man says this is a "make or break" season for a team, the suspense has been lifted. And that's exactly what Hawks part-owner Michael Gearon Jr. has laid out for his team for the abbreviated 2011-12 NBA season.

Atlanta Hawks: Hawks waive Sy, Wanamaker, Rolle
The Hawks waived forward Magnum Rolle and guards Pape Sy and Brad Wanamaker today. More cuts are coming later today: The roster now stands at 16, one more than the maximum, and it’s possible Atlanta will carry the minimum 13 players for the regular season.

Soon after their game against Charlotte tomorrow night, the Hawks will trim the roster down from 18 to no more than 13 (the deadline is Saturday). They have 10 guaranteed contracts and you figure Jannero Pargo is safe. That leaves seven players with contracts that are not fully guaranteed vying for no fewer than two spots and no more than five (16 is the max roster size): Keith Benson...
Atlanta Hawks: Hawks 92, Bobcats 75 (exhibition)
In just five days the games will count for the Hawks. It’s hard to know what conclusions can be drawn from two exhibition games against one of the worst teams in the East. So I guess most of the following analysis comes with that disclaimer.

2011-12 NBA Preview: Atlanta Hawks
The 2011 Atlanta Hawks are looking to do big things the Eastern Conference this season. Joe Johnson is at full strength after one of his worst professional seasons last year. Atlanta has one of the best and youngest starting line-ups in basketball, but have failed to make any noise in the playoffs the last few years. In 2010, the Hawks finished in 3rd-place for the Southeast Division...
Hawks Waive Pape Sy, Ending a Bizarre Non-Era
Pape Sy is probably never going to be a useful NBA player. In that respect, the decision to waive him (along with Magnum Rolle and Brad Wanamaker) is perfectly defensible for a team struggling to reach the league's roster minimum without going over the luxury tax line.It does not make the decision to draft Sy, despite his age and lack of professional experience, or to buy out...

Hawks Sign Willie Green
I must say that, having become inured to his constant Willie Green-ness and being somewhat thankful that he was some other blogger's problem, I hadn't noticed that Green has stopped turning the ball over. So he's got that going for him. Related, the frontcourt has copious offensive rebounding opportunities to look forward to.Over the age of 30, lacking three-point range...
