After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Hawks blew the doors off the Heat 135-101. Hawks torched the Heat on the offensive end. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
