After Action Report
The Nets handled the Hawks 138-121. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Nets lately. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

- Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.

- 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.
