The AJC reports that though Shareef Adbur-Rahim, Theo Ratliff and Glenn Robinson give the Hawks a front line with All-Star credentials, this is not the first time the team will play a season with such a group.

On five other occasions, the Hawks had a frontcourt manned by players who were All-Stars at some point during their careers. However, the results didn't always guarantee a playoff spot, or even a winning record.
