After Action Report
The Hawks took care of the Clippers 85-75. The Clippers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Clippers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
