After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks shocked the Pacers 105-94. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
