After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Heat buried the Hawks 118-94. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks couldn't shake the cold spell. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.

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.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
