In Washington, the Hawks downed the Wizards 116-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Hawks stayed locked in; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
