After Action Report
The Hawks fended off the Cavaliers 107-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. The Hawks are in a full-on tailspin; the Cavaliers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
