After Action Report

The Hawks pulled away from the Nets 114-96. Every possession went the Hawks way. The Hawks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
