After Action Report

The Hawks ran roughshod over the Nuggets 108-86. Every possession went the Hawks way. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
