After Action Report

The Nets fended off the Hawks 104-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Nets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
