    "The Hawks started 4-9, and what was bizarre was how they were playing. There was no identity. They were settling for a steady stream of midrange jumpers — something this team wasn’t built to take advantage of. They weren’t trying hard enough defensively. De’Andre Hunter and Cam Reddish were heavily involved in the offense, but it was clear almost immediately that neither should have been. And Reddish, specifically, was a large reason the Hawks were so mediocre up until he was traded.

    Reddish requested a trade this past offseason because he wanted a bigger role. Hawks general manager Travis Schlenk waited for a first-round pick in exchange to part with Reddish, who was drafted No. 10 overall in the 2019 draft, and traded him as soon as the Knicks offered him one. His teammates knew he wanted out and yet the team continued to play him even though he was a wild card every time he stepped out on the floor. He could drop 30 points, or he could badly miss multiple stepback jumpers and gamble for steals defensively. As one person inside the organization said earlier in the season, “Cam will be good once he learns how to play basketball.”

    All of the a***ytics pointed to Reddish’s play actively hurting the Hawks, but he remained in the rotation. There was no mandate from the front office to play Reddish to increase his trade value. McMillan continued playing him, sources say, because he felt like if he didn’t, the team’s chemistry would’ve been negatively impacted. It was a bad read from McMillan. The Hawks were 15-19 when Reddish played this season and 28-20 without him.

    That was just one of several mistakes McMillan made this season after taking over for the Hawks midway through last season. McMillan’s declaration in mid-March that Delon Wright was out of the rotation surprised sources. They pointed to how the Hawks were in need of better perimeter defenders and Wright was one of the few who were capable of consistently staying in front of guys, but McMillan instead opted for Williams, who wasn’t the spark plug he was last season. Because of injuries to Williams and Collins shortly after saying Wright was out of the rotation, he was once again back in the lineup. But it was another decision that caught many by surprise. Wright ended up being one of the best Hawks in the Miami series.

    McMillan’s end-of-game coaching was another sore spot inside the organization. Several sources said there was an over-reliance on Young running the offense himself in late-game situations instead of McMillan drawing up plays. McMillan does have a tendency to let his players figure it out on the court — whether that’s with not calling timeouts to stop runs or with the Hawks playing through the flow of the offense and what he sometimes calls “random play.” The Hawks finished the regular season with a minus-8.8 net rating in clutch time, what the NBA considers games within five points and under five minutes.

    When speaking about potential playoff matchups for the Hawks a few weeks ago, one source inside the organization mentioned how the Heat were a bad matchup for Atlanta. When asked why, he said he thought the gap between Erik Spoelstra and McMillan was too wide. Spoelstra is known as one of the best in-game tacticians in the NBA, and that showed itself with how the Heat neutralized Young and how the Hawks couldn’t figure anything out to get him going.

    Lloyd Pierce was fired last season because he lost the locker room, and mainly Young. One source was asked after Tuesday’s Game 5 loss if McMillan had support in the locker room this season and if he felt like the players believed in their coach; he just laughed. As of a few days ago, McMillan’s job security was not in question. The manner in which the Hawks lost could change opinions, but that remains unclear right now. This series was another reminder, though, of McMillan’s lack of playoff success. In his 18 seasons, he’s only advanced out of the first round twice: last season and in 2005 with the Seattle SuperSonics.

    Where McMillan falls short in many people’s eyes is his rigidity, particularly when it comes to experimenting even if the status quo isn’t working. Rookie Jalen Johnson only received 120 minutes this season, as McMillan was adamant about how the Hawks were out of the development stage. Johnson is certainly raw but teams — even good ones — figure out ways to find playing time for rookies. Instead, he played the 74th-most minutes out of all rookies this season. Different lineup combinations that work well, like Kevin Huerter and Bogdan Bogdanovic together, aren’t used often enough. Lineup combinations that don’t work well, like any you’d like to name involving Reddish, were used too much.

    As one source said after Game 5, “McMillan’s unimaginative, and when things aren’t going to plan, it’s hard to make an adjustment.”

    Who y’all thinking we should draft? I hope we can draft Alondes Williams outta wake forest in the 2nd round. 6’5 combo guard, was the 3rd leading scorer in the ACC this year, can create his own shot, is a great passer with some solid defense as well. I think he’s being slept on in this draft, a lot of mocks got him going pretty late.

    If Jeremy Sochan or that boy from Ohio State could fall to 16, that would be fire too
