After Action Report
The Hawks survived the Kings 106-103. The Kings couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. Shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately; the Hawks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
