Well, it’s finally here.

After weeks of preseason preparation and a not-so-spectacular offseason dilemma, the regular season for the Atlanta Hawks has finally arrived.

Leading up to the opening game against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday, I’ll do my best to break down this year’s team, and Brad Rowland and I will also offer up our predictions for team throughout the season.

First, let’s take a look at the roster Mike Budenholzer has to work with in 2014-2015.
