After Action Report
The Hawks blew the doors off the Cavaliers 109-86. Hawks' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. The Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
