Why we should be rooting for the Hawks to beat the Pacers in Game 7

Reports are that Pacers' head coach Frank Vogel's job is on the line if the Pacers lose in the first round. If this really ends up happening, Morey needs to snatch him up ASAP. Vogel embraces analytics and the Pacers have become an ELITE defensive team under his leadership.

Vogel would be a great fit for a team that desperately needs to improve defensively. Every game came down to the wire because of our inability to get stops. On paper, we were good enough to blowout Portland every game but our defense leaks kept Portland in every game. That's not going to happen under a guy that preaches defense. I would even rank Vogel over the "free agent" coaches out there like SVG/JVG and Thibodeau.
