Similarly, I think Childress' departure in Atlanta gives Marvin Williams a few more minutes per game and lets him live up to the UNC hype a little. I like the way Spencer Hawes ended the season in Sacramento last year - he'll play a big role this year. I also like a couple of point guards to help their teams exceed expectations - Ramon Sessions in Milwaukee and Marcus Williams in Golden State. Then again, I was a fan of "Waterworld", so take my opinions with a grain of salt.
