After Action Report
The Hawks squeaked past the Knicks 104-102. The Hawks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; Hawks' outside barrage was a constant threat. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
