After Action Report
The Celtics took care of the Hawks 101-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hawks' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- 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.
