After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Hawks 119-89. Celtics' offense had its way with the Hawks. Shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately; Hawks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
