Mike Budenholzer draws up late-game play, none of the Hawks bother to listen image

The Hawks beat the Heat 98-92 on Tuesday night in a game they lead — and controlled — right from the start. But Miami made a late push, forcing the Hawks and reigning Coach of the Year Mike Budenholzer to make some adjustments on the fly.

With just 8.7 seconds left and his team holding on to a four-point lead. Budenholzer drew up a set that would lead the team to victory. The problem? No one bothered to listen. Literally.
