After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Hawks 117-114. The Celtics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Hawks. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
