After Action Report
The Hawks handled the Rockets 111-101. Hawks' offense had its way with the Rockets. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
