After Action Report
The Hawks handled the Celtics 130-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
