06/11/2010 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Hawks have reportedly hired Larry Drew to be the team's next head coach.

Drew, who has been Atlanta's lead assistant for the past six years, will take the place of Mike Woodson, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Drew had also been an assistant with the Lakers, Pistons, Wizards and Nets since retiring as a player in 1991.

Woodson was fired at the end of the season and finished with a record of 206-286 with the Hawks. The team was just 13-69 in his first season, then improved each year afterward and reached the playoffs each of the last three seasons.

The Hawks were 53-29 this season and earned the third seed in the Eastern Conference. After rallying from a 3-2 series deficit to oust Milwaukee in the first round of the playoffs, the Hawks were swept in dominating fashion by Orlando in the conference semifinals. The Magic outscored Atlanta by a total of 101 points during the four games.
