After Action Report
The Hawks handled the Pistons 121-109. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
