Atlanta Hawks – Mike Budenholzer

In my opinion, Mike Budenholzer should be safe. His style of play suits young teams. The Hawks can play fast, with pace and space. For a team that’s looking to acquire young, one-and-done talent from the draft, Coach Budenholzer is the right fit. Mike also gets his guys to play. Opposing teams have to beat the Hawks as they done go down too easily.

However, Budenholzer doesn’€™t settle for being a lottery team. He, for what seems ages ago, coached a Hawks team to the first seed in the East and a trip to the Conference Finals. The Atlanta Hawks used to be known as the €œSpurs of the East.

He has been meeting with the Phoenix Suns and could very well become their new head coach at any moment.
