After Action Report
The Nets survived the Hawks 105-100. The Hawks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nets. Shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
