After Action Report
The Hawks snuck past the Magic 110-105. Hawks' offense had its way with the Magic. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks steamroller is in full effect right now. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Magic's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
