After Action Report
In a track meet, the Celtics pulled away from the Hawks 109-99. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. The Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
