Hawks Recruit Bawinkel

Aclone · 03-16-2008, 07:21 PM

I saw this, and I had to think, that the heck do they need with four off guards (and a small forward) in the same class? Especially when they are so desperate for post players and point guard help? Lickliter looks like a decent coach, but why does he want Bawinkel? The bit I saw said that they told him they need a shooter. What, the first three couldn't shoot?!!

They already have Kelly on the wing, Gatens, Davis and Fuller don't look bad, so does Lickliter think he's going to neat us with swarms of mediocre midsize players?

Considering they were worse than us this year, they probably need just about everything, and a lot of it.

They look like Drake under sized and living off the 3pt shot

1 2 3 looks like they are covered there but they do need power players.

They could definitely use some depth in the post, but I think Tate and Cole will be able to get it done for them most games. However if either one gets into foul trouble they are screwed.

I hear they are recruiting Rocky to play the point as well.
"Rocky brings the ball up court, guarded closely by Boris. He drives the lane, kicks it out to Bawinkel for three! Oh, shot denied by Mr Big!

I had the same thought, but didn't want to be the one to make a cheesy commit. That being said, rep for you

That was my first thought too! You two must have great minds, because we think alike!

I think Cyclone Alley will have some fun with him if the Hawks get him and bring him to Hilton!

They made it so easy. I almost put in a line about Cpt Peachfuzz as well, but decided that was taking it too far.
But seriously, how bad would it suck to have the name Bawinkel.

Not as bad as Michael Bolton! There WAS nothing wrong with it, until that no-talent ***clown got famous and started winning grammy's.

Trust me, as bad as Bawinkel sounds, there are plenty of other things that rhyme with winkle.... and I know from experience.

Not sure that Lickliter is thinking about us all that much.
