After Action Report

The Hawks downed the Clippers 117-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
