After Action Report
The Hawks demolished the Pistons 125-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
