Danny Ferry and the Hawks big trades

Danny Ferry traded Joe Johnson (4 years $90 million) for a bunch of expiring contracts and a lottery protected draft pick. He also traded Marvin Williams (2 years $16 million) to Utah for Devin Harris (final year of contract). Big first week for Danny; he has completely changed the face of the franchise now I think. They can start going after FA now (and next year) and maybe get some cheap pickups.

He's certainly putting his own stamp on the team. Freeing up lots of cap space with these expiring contracts. Haven't seen who is on the market next year FA wise so I'm not sure who the Hawks may be going for. Building around Josh Smith, Al Horford and an elite free agent would be a great start for the future.

He's freeing up space to make a big run at Antawn Jamison and Mo Williams.

Sorry Mick just saw it on the general page; I only really read the NBA page so I did not see it
