Atlanta Hawks' Offseason...

So I was going through the free agent list and I realized that, there are a lot of players from the Hawks that are going to be available via free agency.  Granted neither Joe Johnson or Josh Smith fall into that category, but such a large number of players on an already think bench seems somewhat alarming.  Who should the Hawks keep?

Star-divide

Mike Bibby is an unrestricted free agent as is Zaza Pachulia and Flip Murray, Marvin Williams, with whom the Hawks failed to reach an agreement on a contract extension will be a restricted free agent.  I have to imagine that at the very least, Marvin Williams will garner a certain amount of interest by championship contenders.  There are a lot of teams looking for a long wing forward that can hit the three and play defense.  A lot of people mentioned that Bibby was also interested in re-signing with the Hawks though, if that's the case, will the Hawks have enough money to improve or at least maintain their current roster?

We've gotta keep Marvin...

and shouldn’t re-sign Bibby. He’s going to be way to much of a liability by the end of any potential contract.

Agreed.

Marvin will be key to the future – you can already see how much he has improved, and he will continue to get better. We should try to draft or trade for a PG, Bibby has been great, but his defense his non-existent and he will be asking for far too much

and by draft or trade for a PG, I mean as a backup for Acie. The only time he played more than 30 minutes, he scored 16. And it was against the Lakers
