After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Trail Blazers handled the Hawks 118-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Trail Blazers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
