After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers upended the Hawks 133-100. The tempo dragged the Hawks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep; Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. An upset for the books.
