After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Hawks downed the Rockets 90-79. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
