interesting fact: Jon Leuer was on Team USA. He's young, he's got Lamar Odom type measurements.

he might be available with a great center (Andrew Bogut) attached and can shoot. Good haul for Josh? Horford?

Hawks trade {Al Horford} for {PF Jon Leuer and C Andrew Bogut}
* Andrew Bogut * Jon Leuer * Josh Smith * Joe Johnson * Jeff Teague *
* Zaza Pachulia * Keith Benson * Malcolm Thomas * Marvin Williams * Kirk Hinrich *
inj. reserve: Pape Sy, Jason Collins
