After Action Report
The Hawks outlasted the Lakers 104-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. Hawks' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
