After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks ran roughshod over the Spurs 128-72. Hawks torched the Spurs on the offensive end. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Spurs' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Spurs looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
