After Action Report

The Hawks survived the Nets 102-97. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
