The Hawks plan to make a hard push for free-agent center Dwight Howard on July 1, and there's some belief that Van Gundy could actually turn out to be a benefit in recruiting Howard back to his hometown.

Howard has expressed some sentiment that he better appreciates Van Gundy as a head coach, despite their clashes together in Orlando that ultimately led to the coach's firing after the 2011-12 season.

I'm gobsmacked.

The two only ever had cosmetic problems. Always had a good working relationship.

No good reason to think they wouldn't work very well together if reunited.

Hasn't Atlanta learned anything? The reason the Orlando Magic had their season derailed in 2011-2012 was because of Dwight's drama problems and eventually led the firing of their coach.
