After Action Report
The Heat stunned the Hawks 103-101. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
