After Action Report
The Hawks outlasted the Hornets 117-109. Hawks torched the Hornets on the offensive end. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
