After Action Report

The Nuggets pulled away from the Hawks 104-90. Nuggets' offense had its way with the Hawks. Nuggets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
