After Action Report

The Nets buried the Hawks 118-97. Nets' offense had its way with the Hawks. Second-chance points piled up for the Nets; the Nets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
