After Action Report

In Golden State, the Hawks demolished the Warriors 131-99. The Hawks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Warriors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
