After Action Report
The Hawks survived the Nets 101-99. Hawks' scorers couldn't be contained. The Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
