After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets blew the doors off the Hawks 139-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. The Nets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Nets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
