After Action Report
The Hawks ran roughshod over the Kings 120-88. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
