But is he going to play? The rotation has been pretty short thus far and I don't see him being part of it.

Kanter and Favors both made terrific passes during the game.

Good to see the interior passing again. Rudy, Booker and Evans too.

Looked pretty good against the Clippers. Of course there's a big difference between pre-season and regular games, but some encouraging signs.

Al Horford’s name will enter trade talks. It happened in stealth mode last season, when the Hawks reached out to a select group and made it known that Horford could be had for the right price — including an unprotected 2014 first-round pick, per several league sources. Nothing materialized, and Horford is ready to return from another torn pectoral muscle. A healthy Horford is a top-20 player on a below-market contract that runs through 2015-16 — long enough that some team could talk itself into gambling on him. He could net a hefty return for the Hawks, who have been happily skipping down the “pretty good with cap room” path under Danny Ferry. Grantland

I'd consider it. His injuries would worry me a little though.
