After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks shocked the Celtics 122-121. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. The Hawks pushed the pace until the other side broke; Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. An upset for the books.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
