After Action Report
The Hawks demolished the Pistons 115-80. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
