The Eastern Conference Finals will start tonight when the first game between the Atlanta Hawks and the Milwaukee Bucks takes place at Fiserv Forum.

After a thrilling series, the Atlanta Hawks have advance to the Eastern Conference Finals after defeating the Philadelphia 76ers in 7 games. In the end, The Hawks were the better team, thanks to an incredible Trae Young who has averaged 29 points this postseason. Surprisingly he was not featured in any of the NBA's seasonal best teams.

Moreover, the last time the Atlanta franchise reached the Eastern Conference Finals was back in 2015. Unfortunately, they were swept by LeBron James' Cleveland Cavaliers. In addition, that Hawks team was coached by Mike Budenholzer, who left in 2018 to coach the Milwaukee Bucks, the team they will now face in the Conference finals.

When was the last time the Bucks won the NBA finals?

The Hawks have never won an NBA Finals since it was founded, and the NBA merged with ABA to create one league.

After defeating the Sixers in 7 games, the Hawks will now face the Milwaukee Bucks this Wednesday, June 23, for the first game of the series. The Bucks come to the series in great form after defeating an NBA Finals favorite Brooklyn Nets, in 7 games. Franchise star Giannis Antetokounmpo has been great for the team, averaging 29 points and 12 rebounds.

The winner of the Eastern Conference Finals will have to play the winner of the Western Conference Final between the Phoenix Suns and the LA Clippers. None of the four teams in the Conference finals have won an NBA title after the 1976-77 merger between the NBA and ABA.
