After Action Report
The Celtics edged the Hawks 121-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
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.
