After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks squeaked past the Pacers 105-104. The Pacers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. The Hawks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
