After Action Report

The Hawks edged the Suns 106-99. The Suns couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; the Hawks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
