After Action Report

The Hawks survived the SuperSonics 95-94. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. The Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
