After Action Report

The Hawks snuck past the 76ers 102-99. 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 bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
