After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Knicks outlasted the Hawks 142-126. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Hawks are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
