After Action Report

The Hawks ran roughshod over the Magic 136-105. The breakneck pace played right into Hawks' hands. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Hawks' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
