After Action Report
The Hawks took care of the Pacers 118-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Pacers are in a full-on tailspin; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
