I'll say Sacramento

I still need to see what us, Dallas, NY, PHX and Chicago do this offseason.

If no one changed anything but got a year older. We are clearly in 2nd place. 3rd would be Chicago for me. SAC for now has the core and the vets.

Atlanta has the core, not the vets. Chicago has the a solid core and the vets. Dallas has two stars but nothing else. PHX got three players, that's it.

There seems to just be an assumption that Luka and KP will draw FA's this summer simply because Dallas has money. They don't have a young core, imo, that is as far along together as the Hawks. They also don't have the draft capital the Hawks have. I'll believe Dallas draws an elite FA when I see it. Kinda like the Hawks this summer.

I agree. Dallas is easily the team I see that will miss from the list. Everyone else either has the lottery in their favor or FA like NY.

Vlade is quietly doing some real nice work for the Kings. I expect 50 wins from them next year.

Return to Atlanta Hawks
