After Action Report

The Hawks demolished the Raptors 119-90. Hawks torched the Raptors on the offensive end. 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. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Raptors · 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.
