After Action Report
In Golden State, the Warriors outlasted the Hawks 96-85. The Hawks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Warriors. The Warriors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Warriors' outside barrage was a constant threat. Early returns: the Warriors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
