After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Hawks snuck past the Timberwolves 137-136 in double overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed.
