After Action Report
The Hawks edged the Cavaliers 116-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. The Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
