After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks buried the Knicks 121-99. Hawks torched the Knicks on the offensive end. The Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Hawks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
