After Action Report
In a track meet, the Nets blew the doors off the Hawks 144-99. The breakneck pace played right into Nets' hands. Nets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
