After Action Report

The Celtics outlasted the Hawks 115-101. Celtics torched the Hawks on the offensive end. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hawks' balanced five covered every spot on the floor. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Balanced Five A starting five that covers every position with even talent finds a synergy edge.
  • Hawks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
