After Action Report

The Hawks outlasted the Nets 105-97. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Nets locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
