After Action Report
The Hawks ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 129-87. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
