After Action Report
The Hawks outlasted the Lakers 116-100. The tempo dragged the Lakers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
