After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Hawks buried the Mavericks 110-89. Hawks' scorers couldn't be contained. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
