NBA: Comparing Each Franchise To Music Genres
By Ryan Piers
Atlanta Hawks
Band Name: Never First, Never Last
Genre: Post Hard-Core Punk
I guess this nickname isn’t entirely correct. The Hawks finished first in the Eastern Conference last season, but with no superstar it’s tough to imagine this team ever making the NBA finals. On the other hand, Mike Budenholzer would never let them hit rock bottom, as we’ve seen this season in a “down” year compared to what they did last year.
Boston Celtics
Band Name: Stevens Army
Genre: Classic Rock
This Celtics operate as a collective unit better than anyone not named Golden State. Coach Brad Stevens is the reason why. The child prodigy of the NBA coaching family will be leading this team to great things for years to come.
Next: Nets and Hornets
