After Action Report
The Hawks rolled past the Rockets 125-96. Hawks' scorers couldn't be contained. Hawks' stars took over and bent the game to their will; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hawks · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
