The Hawks fended off the Wizards 106-99. Every possession went the Hawks way. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
