After Action Report
The Hawks ran roughshod over the Celtics 118-95. Every possession went the Hawks way. The Hawks steamroller is in full effect right now; Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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.
