After Action Report
The Hawks demolished the Pistons 127-100. Hawks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Fresh off a statement win, the Hawks stayed locked in; Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
