After Action Report

The 76ers rolled past the Hawks 118-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. Hawks' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Hawks' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

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.
