Pac's Resurrection: The Official 2014-15 Atlanta Hawks Season Thread

[FAH1223]

Wat yall think about playing the Wizards in the 2nd round?

Hawks will win in 6 games, maybe 5. Wittless vs. Budenholzer

The Wizards should have traded for Isaiah Thomas and found another wing... then I think they could give ATL a run for their money

Don Newman who is also from the Spurs is on our staff, he'd make a better coach than Wittman.

Gosh, I hope the Wizards blow this 2-0 series lead to get Wittman fired

Private equity billionaire Antony Ressler is leading a group that has finalized an agreement to purchase the Atlanta Hawks.

Ressler’s group will purchase the team from majority owner Bruce Levenson for a figure somewhere between $800 million-plus and $900 million, sources told Yahoo Sports.

Former NBA All-Star Grant Hill and Atlanta entrepreneur Jesse Itzler will be investors in the group, sources said.

The new ownership group, which will need to be approved by the NBA’s Board of Governors, is planning to retain Hawks CEO Steve Koonin and keep him in charge of the organization’s day-to-day business.

Levenson was forced to sell the team after a racially insensitive memo sent to the Hawks’ staffsurfaced last year. The Hawks have had a historic season, winning 60 games and earning the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer was voted the NBA Coach of the Year. New ownership is expected to prioritize a new contract for Budenholzer.
