After Action Report
The Hawks survived the Cavaliers 106-101. Hawks' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Hawks; Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
