When GM of the Atlanta Hawks William Bendernagel announced Gary Payton with the 1st pick of the BBS Draft H was quoted in saying ' The future with Hawks is here." The glove put up outstanding numbers with the Hawks however his stay in Atlanta was short. When he was traded to Sacramento for 21 yr old phenom Shareef Abdul Raheem. Many people thought it was the Hawks packing it in but what they weren't counting on was how well the team would gel from the start. Under the great tutilage of Lenny Wilkens the Hawks finished four games over 500. Raheem posted solid numbers averaging 16 pts 6 boards and 3 assists as well as a steal and a block per game. The newly inducted Hawk went with Captain JR Rider on a celebration binge to the Atlanta Gritz bars and Atlanta strip clubs. Rumor has it that Shareef had so much fun he got really drunk and marrried a stripper anndd was divorced 2 hours later. Ther is no question SARS loves his new home. There are however some questions. How will the Hawks match up with the number 1 seed hornets? How will the big men of camby and Wright fairr against Jayson Williams Cliff Robinson and Horace Grant. How can the masters of disaster MJ and pippen be stopped? Finally how is Howard Eissley a starting pg?
