After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks took care of the Trail Blazers 118-106. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Trail Blazers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Trail Blazers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Trail Blazers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
