After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks held off the Knicks 95-87. The Knicks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; the Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
