After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Hawks ran roughshod over the Warriors 118-98. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Hawks stayed locked in; shots just aren't falling for the Warriors lately. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

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