After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks ran roughshod over the Celtics 119-97. Hawks' offense had its way with the Celtics. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hawks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
