After Action Report
The Hawks squeaked past the Pistons 116-112. Hawks' offense had its way with the Pistons. The Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
