After Action Report
The Hawks took care of the Pacers 120-103. Hawks' offense had its way with the Pacers. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
