After Action Report
The Hawks survived the Cavaliers 108-106. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hawks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
