Why is Atlanta freaking out about Josh Childress?

So the Hawks lost this kid to that Greek team. I don't blame Childress for two reasons:

1. The money. $2-3 million more per year. Anybody that doesn't think this is a big factor isn't thinking straight. In addition, all of his living are covered by the team, and he has annual opt-out clauses with no buy-outs.

2. For the first time as a pro, he'll be a starter. Who would rather ride the pine than hit the hardwood? Nobody. You play to play.

The Spirit group could have handled this better, but, really, what's the big deal? Atlanta media types are talking about Childress being a "special" player; one tha will be hard to replace. I disagree. Childress has been over-rated and over-paid from the outset. He's a 6th man on a sub .500 team. Unlike great 6th men, he's not good enough to start for the lower 3rd of the league. No other teams were seeking his services. Maybe the Hawks can use his big salary for a more complementary player.

Has Tuberville Learned From The Past?

Will he maintain control of his staff and his players this year on the field? His staff and players better not let anyone commit any blatant chop blocks like what was pulled on Dorsey last year. If any chop blocks are given, the team may see some of their own defensive linemen receive a few themselves. If two or three of their starters get hurt, their backups will not control any SEC offenses. Then the pressure will shift back to the same offending offensive linemen to protect their new quarterbacks and enable them to score with their opposition.

I'm not writing this to encourage other team members to deliver chop blocks against Auburn; only so the Auburn offensive coaches and linemen realize some consequences of their actions.
