After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Rockets pulled away from the Hawks 113-103. Rockets' offense had its way with the Hawks. The Rockets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.

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.
  • Rockets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
