After Action Report

The Hawks buried the Nets 128-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. The Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss; Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Nets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
