After Action Report
The Celtics rolled past the Hawks 115-86. The Celtics' lockdown unit choked off Hawks' offense. The Hawks are in a full-on tailspin. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
