After Action Report

The Hawks handled the Mavericks 117-99. Hawks' offense had its way with the Mavericks. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; fresh off a statement win, the Hawks stayed locked in. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
