After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks edged the Wizards 109-102. The Wizards couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. The Hawks pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
