After Action Report
The Cavaliers took care of the Hawks 102-90. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
