After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 132-108. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
