After Action Report
The Hawks rolled past the Knicks 102-81. Hawks' offense had its way with the Knicks. Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Knicks couldn't shake the cold spell. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
