After Action Report

In Miami, the Hawks squeaked past the Heat 113-108. Hawks' offense had its way with the Heat. The Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Hawks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hawks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
