The Atlanta Hawks and the city of Atlanta announced Tuesday that they have reached an agreement on the terms for a $192.5 million renovation of Philips Arena — the downtown venue where the Hawks play home games.

According to a release sent out by the team, Atlanta mayor Kasim Reed committed to provide $142.5 million toward the renovation process, while the Hawks pledged the remainder. The Hawks also committed to an 18-year lease extension to stay in downtown Atlanta through 2046.

The renovations are scheduled to begin in the summer of 2017 and conclude by the start of the 2018-19 season. Despite the renovation process, the Hawks are still scheduled to play in Philips Arena next season.

The modified arena will feature "new amenities on every level of the building, 360-degree connected concourses at all levels, improved sightlines and state-of-the-art video throughout the building," according to the team.

“When our group became owners almost a year and a half ago, we pledged to work diligently with the City of Atlanta to ensure that the Club remained downtown," Hawks owner Tony Ressler said in a statement.

"We knew that a key part of producing a winning team, providing a superior fan experience and being a civic asset to the City of Atlanta required a renovation of our arena and a meaningful improvement to the downtown area of this city. Today’s announcement with the Mayor is a significant step toward this goal, and we look forward to this exciting transformation that will ensure that we provide the best fan experience possible now and for the next 30 years."

Curry whenever he takes over a game is still one of the most fun things to watch. Earlier he was just snatching the blazers souls.

Great first step for the Dubs. Real test now is if they can do this to a team with some bruisers that can hit the glass. Utah, Clippers, etc.

seeing Klay and KD clank 3s so far this season is bizarre given they're both elite shooters, Klay more so

edit:
KD's role so far is different than what he had at OKC, he seems to be fitting in defensively much better in GS than in OKC. I think the difference is that KD isn't being asked to be the key shooter that makes the entire offense work. Look at the OKC rosters from the last few years, Im pretty sure Kevin Martin is the best shooter he played with. Ibaka was a damn good midrange shooter but he always needed someone to create that shot for him.

Noone destroys teams at the level Steph does when he's hot. Dude reminds me of an alternate reality version of Shaq domination, and that was him being diabolically bad in the 1st quarter. Warrior D can still be good since Green and Iggy are elite defenders, but Zaza is such a mediocre center, he stands out in all the worst ways with these guys.

Pistons putting in work without the starting point guard, who expected this? What a great team. :')
