After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Warriors handled the Hawks 131-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Warriors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
