After Action Report

The Hawks squeaked past the Lakers 127-125. The breakneck pace played right into Hawks' hands. The Hawks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Hawks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
