After Action Report
The Hawks demolished the Wizards 129-86. Hawks' offense had its way with the Wizards. The Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
