After Action Report
The Hawks knocked off the Cavaliers 110-99. The better team simply showed up tonight. Hawks' positional balance gave them a synergy edge; Hawks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Balanced Five A starting five that covers every position with even talent finds a synergy edge.
- Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
