After Action Report
The Nets squeaked past the Hawks 104-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nets' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
