After Action Report

The Hawks buried the Pistons 117-92. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
