After Action Report
The Hawks took care of the Cavaliers 105-91. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; the Cavaliers 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. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
