After Action Report
The Hawks blew the doors off the Celtics 115-93. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Hawks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
