The upcoming free agency period and the uncertainty that surrounds it is uncommon for such a by the book franchise. Do the Hawks sign Paul Millsap to a max? How much is too much for Tim Hardaway Jr.? How does the team move forward after the Dwight Howard trade?
Travis Schlenk and company have certainly put a new and almost uneasy feeling in the bellies of the fans of the Atlanta Hawks, but I caution you to not overreact just yet.
Travis Schlenk learned under a front office in the Golden State Warriors that has a history of making bold moves, such as trading star guard Monta Ellis to the Bucks for an injury riddled Andrew Bogut in 2012.
