After Action Report

The 76ers held off the Hawks 101-95. The Hawks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the 76ers. The 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Hawks 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 · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
