After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Nuggets held off the Hawks 100-94. The Hawks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nuggets. Nuggets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Hawks' balanced five covered every spot on the floor. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
