After Action Report
The Hawks downed the Lakers 110-98. Hawks' offense had its way with the Lakers. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
