Hawks import to get cut?

I agree with Isaac above. Maybe try to jiggle up the rotations before cutting anyone.

Martin, Ervin, Coenraad, Forman, Davidson does look a good combo. Bring Nevill off the bench for effect and if you had a guard compo that had at least one of Ervin or Carson on for all the game with them on court for say a 20% game time overlap, then there may be a big improvement.

Demos is a great defender.

There is a reason why he isn't getting minutes though..he can't shoot to save himself this year.

5/15 FG
2/13 3p FG
0/4 ft

a combinted 7/32.

There is a reason why Demos isn't playing much and fair enough.

I haven't watched too many Hawks games but looking at the stats (and I'll take them with a grain of salt as I know hawks are 1 and 8), carson and ervin have each scored over 20 in the same game twice so are they really the problem? It seems carson is playing too many minutes and demos not enough.
Davidson needs to step up or get out, I think he can be a great player but has been missing the mongrel this season.
Ballinger and Forman also need to bring it every night, if they're not scoring then get some rebounds at least.
Hawks remind me of Cairns last season, the personnel is not too bad, just not quite gelling at the moment, and you wonder how much of an effect the new ownership is having on this, in particular the Gruber loss.

"Some Hawks fans are already convinced the 2014-15 team will become only the second side in the club's 35-year history to finish with the wooden spoon. Wollongong's only other last-placing occurred in 1997."

Nuff said. Maybe the owner needs to own and not interfere.

No one is cut (yet).

The Hawks signed Ervin thinking that Martin would be back and then were going for an import 2/3 like the previous season. Then when Martin said he was going overseas they had to go for a new look and signed Carson.

Now that Martin is back it does make sense to release 1 import and go for another wing. However after the PR nightmare around releasing Gruber, will they be willing to do it again in the same season? That's the million dollar question.

Nevill would still be a great signing for someone but not as any sort of marquee player, just a great big man coming off the bench.
