After Action Report
The Hawks upended the Nets 113-108. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
