After Action Report
The Hawks squeaked past the Bulls 104-103. Hawks' offense had its way with the Bulls. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Hawks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
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 · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
