After Action Report
The Magic upended the Hawks 122-121. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
