After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers ran roughshod over the Hawks 131-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks couldn't shake the cold spell. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
