The sweep at the hands of the Knicks showed that this team is desperate for offensive firepower. Additional size to take the pressure off Dikembe Mutombo would also help. The questions in the frontcourt could take care of themselves if LaPhonso Ellis and Alan Henderson recover from injuries. A backup to Mookie Blaylock is another need, and with four first-round picks, the Hawks can take a risk or two.
