After Action Report
In Utah, the Hawks outlasted the Jazz 102-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
