Teague is an amazing young point guard but I dunno if I'd put him in top 5. I think the team just realized, when they were giving the Pacers hell, how good they can be due to the fact that all their players are amazingly versatile and good shooters.
Korver and Milsap are the killers for the Hawks.
Milsap is, IMO, the most underrated player in the league. He's a guy who does absolutely everything at a much higher level than stats might make you think and he's a 1st option player with an understanding of being a better player doesn't always mean "stats".
Korver needs no explanation. He's, quite possibly, the most dangerous shooter in the league. He's a roleplayer that is more dangerous than many first option talents because he's such a defense breaker and he changes the entire game for the Hawks.
Teague is great at everything the Hawks need. He might not be as talented as Curry and Westbrook or as composed as CP3 but he's great at getting penetration, he gives a lot on defense, he knows his players, and he knows when to direct the offense and when to let others (Milsap or Horford) take control.
I probably wouldn't build around Teague but I think he's like Mike Conley in that he's what you want from a PG on a championship squad.
