After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Spurs squeaked past the Hawks 117-115. Spurs torched the Hawks on the offensive end. The Spurs carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Spurs · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
