Chaos, at the highest levels, will no longer be the operating model when new ownership takes over the Atlanta Hawks. If there is a lesson to be learned from the Bruce Levenson era it is the old phrase about power: absolute power corrupts absolutely.
The Bruce Levenson era was marked by sniping, bitching, and a lack of unity as one owner, Levenson, was based in D.C., another owner, Michael Gearon Jr., was based in Atlanta, and a third, Steve Belkin, lived in Boston. Curiously, they attempted to run a team when they couldn’t agree on much of anything about the product they owned.
