Our defense under Bud has been superb for a lot of these past two years.

Just need another wing and maybe another bench big.

On this weeks episode of The Vertical Podcast with Chris Mannix, Atlanta Hawks Guard Dennis Schroder joins the program. Dennis talks about what it was like growing up in Germany and how the passing of his father motivated him to play basketball and become the player he is today.

The Hawks’ defense has been a constant for the past few months. They rank second in the NBA overall in defensive efficiency, behind only the Spurs. They are first in the category since Dec. 12. That’s three months of the best defense in the league. That has to continue. The defensive principles will be even more important come the postseason.

“We have to maintain our defense,” Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said Tuesday. “We have to know that’s a priority.”

The Hawks also rank second in the league in opponent field-goal percentage (.433), third in steals (9.3), fifth in opponent 3-point field-goal percentage (.334), sixth in points allowed (98.6) and seventh in blocks (5.7).
