(Re: The Hawks)
One hired nominee or the other, clearly management plans to complete the
two-year renovation of its roster this summer. Already seven of the
players who figure to return are 24 or younger. 

Meaning, of course, Dikembe Mutombo, 34 on June 25, and one year
($14,422,780) removed from free agency, is almost certain to be traded
for two or three potential star witnesses. 

The Suns, Pacers and every other championship contender blessed with a
wealth of offensive players will be among the bidders.  

(In other news, Pitino will be on NBC Saturday as an in-studio analyst
with Isiah and Hannah.)
