This is an important year for Al Horford of the Atlanta Hawks. The forward is going into his third year with the Hawks, and the once rebuilding franchise now has heavy expectations to make it to the next level. The season will be long for Horford, but if his first games are an indication of what's to come, then it should be a fun season. Horford scored a double double last night, with 24 points and 16 boards as the Hawks pounced on the Pacers. Horford's Dominican counterparts, Charlie Villanueva and Francisco Garcia also have much to prove this year. Villanueva signed with a new team, the Detroit Pistons, while Garcia signed a hefty contract extension. But Garcia will be out for a large part of the season after breaking his wrist in a freak gym accident.
